A critical part of any live stage performance occurs backstage. Behind the scenes, a stage manager has to ensure the production runs smoothly. They might assist actors, situate props or lead the lighting and sound cues. Arguably the most important person in a theatrical performance never sees the other side of the curtain.
To paraphrase Stefon from Saturday Night Live, this game had everything.
After slamming the Iowa Hawkeyes (9-22, 3-5) in a seven-run rout Friday night at the Goodman Diamond, the Wisconsin Badgers (24-7, 3-5) were outplayed in the second game of the series, losing 4-3.

Wisconsin (24-6, 3-4) rebounded from last weekend’s less-than-stellar showing against Nebraska with a big win, beating Iowa (9-22, 3-5) 8-1 Friday night at the Goodman Diamond. Led by freshman pitcher Kaitlyn Menz and senior utility player Chloe Miller, perhaps the team’s two most important members, the Badgers overpowered the Hawkeyes from the outset and never took their foot off the gas. Friday’s win was a complete team effort; five different Badgers drove in runs and eight different players scored.
The Badgers lost three of their five games in the tournament, but had plenty of positives to take away.

Nebraska (3-3 Big Ten, 11-20 overall) spoiled the Badgers' first weekend in Madison, sweeping No. 21 Wisconsin (2-4, 23-6) right out of their own stadium Sunday.
The No. 22 Badgers couldn’t quite pull out a victory against Nebraska in their home opener, falling 7-4 in eight innings. After a hot start that brought in four runs in the first four innings, Wisconsin’s offense cooled down and was held scoreless for the last four innings of the contest.
After a stellar 2016 campaign, the UW softball team has knocked already-high expectations out of the park in 2017.
No. 21 Wisconsin (2-1 Big Ten, 23-3 overall) entered last weekend’s series against Northwestern (1-2, 12-16) in Evanston with tons of momentum, riding a 12-game win streak that included a no-hitter from freshman Kaitlyn Menz just a few days earlier. However, the Badgers still had a daunting three game set in front of them, as they were attempting to win their first series in Evanston since 2001.

The Badgers opened their season with a bang last week in Cedar Falls, Iowa at the Ramada UNI-Dome Classic, coming away with a perfect 4-0 record. Led by senior center fielder Chloe Miller, who batted .615 for the tournament, Wisconsin faced little trouble on their way to the tournament title.
