Women’s hoops plays exhibition against Flyers

By Northern Star Staff

Women’s basketball will see its lone preseason action when Lewis comes to DeKalb.

The Huskies host the Lewis Flyers 3 p.m. Saturday at the Convocation Center.

The Flyers are ranked No. 9 in the preseason USA Today Sports Division II Top 25 Women’s Basketball Poll, released Tuesday.

The Huskies will be without senior shooting guard Amanda Corral and freshman guard Georgia Breunig for the first month-plus of the season.

Redshirt senior forward Jenna Thorp has been working her way back from a knee injury and should be good to go.

The Huskies will have the opportunity to get a look at multiple lineups before the regular season begins against Illinois State 6 p.m. Nov. 14 at the Convocation Center.

The Huskies went 11-19 overall and 6-12 in the MAC. They were bounced from the second round of the MAC Tournament.
