EVANSTON, Ill. - Northwestern women's basketball announced their full non-conference slate for the 2023-24 season on Monday. The 'Cats will face 11 opponents during non-conference play, including six at Welsh-Ryan Arena.
Before the season kicks off, the 'Cats will host Lewis University on November 2 for an exhibition game. Then, they'll open regular season play at home as they square off against UIC (Nov. 9) and Omaha (Nov. 12).
Northwestern's first road trip of the year will take them to South Bend, Indiana, where they'll face off with Notre Dame on November 15. They'll close out that week back in Evanston for a Sunday matchup against Southeast Missouri State (Nov. 19).
The 'Cats will spend Thanksgiving week in Las Vegas competing in the Ball Dawgs Classic, a four-team event. They'll open play against Florida State on Wednesday (Nov. 22), then play either Stanford or Belmont in their second game, which will take place on Friday (Nov. 24).
After the holiday, Northwestern will return to Welsh-Ryan Arena for another pair of home games against Loyola (Nov. 29) and Georgetown (Dec. 3). Following that, the 'Cats will head downtown to face off with local rival DePaul on December 13.
The non-conference slate will conclude before Christmas with a home matchup against Bradley (Dec. 17) and then a road trip to Temple (Dec. 21) before the Wildcats shift their attention to Big Ten opponents.
Northwestern's conference schedule as well as game times and TV assignments for all contests will be released at a later date.
