Primarily a collection of news links about all 11 Horizon League teams on a daily basis, culled from online newspapers, school athletic websites, the conference website, and school newspapers, plus some other content from time to time.
Leaving: Mikale Stevenson (eligibility), Maximus Nelson
(eligibility), Darius Duffy (eligibility) Deangelo Elisee (eligibility,
working on a waiver), Corey Hadnot II (portal), Yuval Levin (portal),
Ebrahim Kaba (portal),
Already added in portal: Edir Ortiz (Division II Seton
Hill)
Needs: Size and scoring. The 6-foot-9, 235-pound Ortiz is a
good start to rebuilding frontcourt depth and Quentin Morgan is a promising
player there, but some depth would help. Meanwhile, the Mastodons will need
to replace a combined 34.3 points in the backcourt from Hadnot (likely to be
one of the most coveted mid-major players in the portal) and Stevenson.
Women
Purdue Fort Wayne
Leaving: Alana Nelson (eligibility), Jordan Reid
(eligibility), Lauren Lee (eligibility), Rylee Bess (portal)
Needs: Experience. The Mastodons are losing four of their
five late-season starters, including three who spent a half-decade or more
in college basketball. Lili Krasovec seems ready to be a star and the
freshman class even beyond Bess looked to contain several future standouts,
but some stapgap pieces (potentially more from the NAIA, where PFW has had
significant success) would be welcome.
