About the 2026-27 Bulldogs: The Bulldog roster is set for the 2026-27 season. Saniya Jackson returns for BU after leading the team in both rebounding and steals (in addition to finishing second on the team in scoring) a season ago. Her twin sister, Nevaeh, is also back for the Bulldogs. Karina Bystry, a Horizon League All-Freshman selection from Northern Kentucky, and Tamar Singer, a MAC All-Defensive team selection from Miami (Ohio), will make an immediate impact. Lili Krasovec followed Marchesano from Purdue Fort Wayne, where she averaged double figures last season. Those five Bulldogs are joined by additional exciting newcomers to compose the 12-player roster.
