Northwestern field hockey dies it again!!! Ilse Tromp is the hero, and with 3 championships in 5 years, including back to back titles, the dynasty is officially on

Northwestern field hockey STORMS back from a 3-1 deficit to beat #1 UNC in overtime and advance to their fifth consecutive national championship. An unbelievable game, and an unbelievable team is one win away from back-to-back natties

Remarkable rivalry win for Northwestern WBB over DePaul. After a very slow start to the season, the Wildcats might be starting to figure themselves out! Perhaps the best game of Caroline Lau's career, and Grace Sullivan and Tayla Thomas continue to be an exceptional duo down low

Tough news for Northwestern field hockey, who despite just one regular season loss will not host a regional for the first time in four years. The Wildcats head to Charlottesville for a potential rematch of last year’s quarterfinal with plenty of bulletin board material

I’m a week or so late to this, but for my purple people: this is the first season ever in which multiple Northwestern alums have been on opening day rosters in both the NBA and WNBA. Pretty cool moment for Wildcat basketball

What happened to Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez
Immigration agents shot and killed an unarmed 38-year-old father outside Chicago on Friday—and their initial narrative of events was quickly disproven by videos captured by witnesses.

The great @zachlowenba.bsky.social often refers to using "VORPs and SCHNORPs" in award evaluation. I put together a similar set of data for WNBA awards and wanted to share the top offense/defense ratings and overall wins above replacement from averaging four advanced metrics.

Jeff Pagliocca committed organizational malpractice with his roster decisions. He needs to be fired. Reese just said what anyone paying attention already knew.

Incredible numbers from VB
With 25 points and 13 assists today, Veronica Burton joins Caitlin Clark as the only players in WNBA history to have 60+ PTS and 35+ AST over a 3-game span.
Burton is the only player to do that with 5 or fewer total turnovers.

More history for Veronica Burton, who just became the first player in WNBA history to record 10+ AST and 0 TOV in three separate games within the same season!
She is also the first player to ever put up a single game line of 24 pts, 14 ast, 0 tov. Incredible performance tonight despite the loss

Veronica Burton with perhaps the best individual half by any WNBA player this season.
18 points, 7 assists, 1 rebound, 1 steal, 0 turnovers, 36 total points created. To lead a team down four rotation players to a 12 point lead at the break over one of the best teams in the league
