On Saturday, the Blue Demons started the weekend with a 3-0 loss to Louisville. DePaul s offense was missing in action, as the Blue Demons only tallied three hits and five base runners in the opening game of the Louisville Classic.
Louisville scored one in the third, fourth and sixth inning to account for their three runs. Louisville didn t do a lot on offense, only getting eight hits, but they did enough to take the win.
DePaul s Natalie Halvorson s record dropped to 1-3. Halvorson struck out one and walked two in six innings.

Seton Hall led 17-13 after the first quarter, but DePaul tied it at 31 at halftime. DePaul came out strong in the third quarter to lead 61-51 at the end of three. Despite a Seton Hall fourth quarter surge, DePaul was able to hang on to grab the win. Overall, DePaul held the lead for 28:09 compared to Seton Hall s 9:56.
