Northwestern women’s basketball added three players to its 2027 signing class: guard Ava Chang, forward Adah Hupfer and guard Sophia Towne. The recruits bring a mix of scoring, rebounding, playmaking and championship experience; all three are set to join the Wildcats for the 2027-28 season.

By the Numbers
  • Chang averaged 18.1 points, 6.9 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 4.3 steals as a junior.
  • Hupfer averaged 20.5 points and 13 rebounds, with 24 double-doubles as a junior.
  • Towne averaged 15.1 points, 3.1 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 2.6 steals in 38 junior-season games.
Bottom Line

Northwestern’s class pairs three highly productive high school players with varied strengths—and adds a local champion in Towne—as the Wildcats build toward 2027-28.
