The Wisconsin men's hockey team stretched its unbeaten streak to five games this weekend, taking three points from Minnesota-Duluth in a two-game series at the Duluth Entertainment and Convention Center.
Losing the top two scorers from the record-setting 2007 squad, last year's Wisconsin men's basketball team was not projected to achieve much in the way of national recognition and conference supremacy. But a dedicated batch of talent led by then-seniors Brian Butch, Greg Stiemsma, Tanner Bronson and Michael Flowers defied expectations and led the Badgers to a 2008 Big Ten title and a trip to the Sweet 16 in March.
After two tough losses to start the WCHA season last weekend in Denver, the Badgers return home to the Kohl Center to face off against an old foe in the Minnesota Gophers.
Despite losing the first two conference matches of the season to Minnesota and Iowa, the No. 19 Wisconsin volleyball team (4-2 Big Ten, 14-4 overall) will be faced with an even tougher pair of opponents this weekend. They will face No. 21 Purdue (3-3, 14-4) and No. 17 Illinois (4-2, 13-4) while on the road for the second straight week. With six teams in the Big Ten ranked in the AVCA top-25 poll, the Badgers will need to take both matches if they wish to remain in contention for the conference title.
One day in class (though I can't recall which), I drifted into a certain daydream which I am quite positive every man who has been alive and bored at the same time has entertained at some point in his life ... or perhaps just me. It's the one where nuclear fallout or some other Will-Smithian disaster has just occurred outside (the details of which are not too important), trapping me and the rest of my classmates (thanks to the zombies in the hallways) for the rest of the foreseeable future in some Spartan classroom in Humanities, let us say. (A variant of the scenario involves scientists, a space station and a flesh-eating plague, but the end result is the same.) As the tragic yet oddly intriguing truth dawns on those of us in the room that we may never again see the outside world, that our loved ones will have to be shoddily replaced by either some hussy from the suburbs of Chicago or some weirdo from Wauwatosa, the class eagerly drops whatever topic the TA had been prodding us with like a rock to begin overhauling the little learning community we had into a functioning society of survivors.
I didn't wake up intending to fight. Some warriors say it is in their blood, but none want it in their cup of morning coffee.

The Wisconsin softball team lost 3-of-4 games at home over the weekend, but a win in their final game has given them confidence as they prepare to face Northern Iowa Wednesday.
Out on the town a couple weeks ago, I got a campaign call from a candidate who really wanted to revolutionize the system. Intrigued by his position, I went to his website, where he offered me these words: The people need change, they want change, they demand change - and we're going to give them change!"" Though there are many who would rather see a certain other candidate elected, he's got my vote. I believe in Harvey Dent, the front-running candidate for Gotham City district attorney.
