Purdue’s battle-tested, comeback-forward leader
Drey Mingo is a former Purdue forward whose calling card was toughness, leadership, and production: in her Purdue career she averaged 12.1 points and 5.9 rebounds, earned Honorable Mention All-America honors in 2013, and was known for bouncing back from life-threatening bacterial meningitis that left her with permanent hearing loss. That adversity-shaped edge made her more than a box score player—she brought resilience, IQ, and a captain’s mentality. If you want a competitor who lifts a program’s standard, Mingo is exactly that kind of fit.
