After beating No. 12 Purdue and Indiana last weekend, the No. 7 Wisconsin Badgers (11-5 Big Ten, 18-6 overall) jumped up a spot in the national polls. With a road trip east to face Ohio State and Maryland this weekend, the Badgers have a chance to keep the positive momentum rolling as the regular season winds down.
If No. 13 Purdue was a tough challenge for the No. 8 Wisconsin Badgers (11-5 Big Ten, 18-6 overall) , the Indiana Hoosiers (6-10 Big Ten, 15-12) seemed more like an open-note quiz on Senior Night at the UW Field House Saturday. Wisconsin swept the Hoosiers 25-21, 25-14, 25-22 for their second home victory in as many nights.
No. 8 Wisconsin (10-5 Big Ten, 17-6 overall) defeated No. 12 Purdue (10-5, 21-5) 3-2 in a wild five-set battle at the UW Field House Friday night. Looking to erase a two-game home losing streak, the Badgers needed every ounce of effort they could muster in a hard-fought classic.

The No. 6 Wisconsin volleyball team (0-0 Big Ten, 6-1 overall) split a pair of weekend matches on their trip to Texas, losing in four sets to Baylor, and routing North Texas 3-0.

Being in the moment and focusing on what lies ahead of you is crucial to game-time focus. Not dwelling on the past or looking too far into the future is what makes or breaks a player’s presence on the court.
After starting the 2017 season undefeated, the No. 11 Wisconsin Badgers (11-9 Big Ten, 22-9 overall) started to struggle. But with postseason play came new beginnings and with it, another undefeated start.
After advancing to the postseason 13 times over the course of his career, Wisconsin head coach Kelly Sheffield has become quite adept at preparing his team to play in December. In the upcoming 2017 NCAA tournament, however, Sheffield will be tasked with helping the Badgers broach a challenge they have never encountered before: being an underdog.
Going into the weekend, the No. 13 Wisconsin Badgers (10-8 Big Ten, 19-8 overall) were hoping to play more consistently than they have since Big Ten competition started. The 2017 season has been a turbulent one, but Wisconsin found redemption in Illinois.
In what has been a largely up and down 2017 campaign, No. 13 Wisconsin hit perhaps its lowest point of the season this past weekend.

Sophomores in high school at the time of their trip to Madison, the two prospects were invited to attend the Big Ten Championship match at the Field House, meeting one another while watching the Badgers take on the Purdue Boilermakers from the bleachers. Aside from a brief introduction and a few other idle exchanges, both players mostly kept to themselves, unsure of exactly what to say to each other.
After a heart-breaking five-set loss to Ohio State (6-8 Big Ten, 13-12 overall) on Friday, the No. 8 Wisconsin Badgers (7-7 Big Ten, 16-7 overall) were able to once again pull even in Big Ten play by beating University of Maryland (5-9 Big Ten, 16-10 overall) on Saturday 3-1.
