NU is scheduled to go up against the Purdue Boilermakers on Sunday at 1 p.m at Welsh-Ryan Arena. Purdue is currently in first place in the Big Ten, so excluding a monumental upset, NU will most likely see its winless streak increase to 11 straight games.
That's not to say NU's season has not had its bright spots. After missing a month due to a wrist injury, freshman center Amy Jaeschke has emerged as a dominating figure for the Wildcats. Fellow freshman Meshia Reed has earned a spot in the starting lineup, and sophomore guard Jenny Eckhart has awoken from her early doldrums to become one of NU's most reliable playmakers.
Going into the last month of the season, there is only so much the Cats can do to salvage their weak performances thus far. But getting at least one win against a Big Ten opponent seems like a reasonable goal.
