On your mark, get set, go! And they're off! It's Barkley
galloping to an early lead over Bavetta. Barkley continues to lead
and down the stretch they come! Oh no, Barkley has started
backpedaling, with Bavetta making a mad dash to the finish line.
And it's Barkley by a buttock!

It was mildly surprising when Madonna released a live album last
year""her first in a 24-year career""and it's even more unusual
that her follow-up release is yet another live album in spite of
the fact she hasn't recorded any new material. But if there's one
thing you learn being a Madonna fan, it's to not ask questions of
the queen and just take what she gives you. Fortunately, with the
live CD/DVD combo, The Confessions Tour, Madonna has given her
legions of fans a fun, occasionally fabulous collection of dance
music and succeeded in once again pushing forward her
ever-expanding musical boundaries.

The stakes have never been higher this season for the No. 10 UW
volleyball team. With two sweeps over Notre Dame and Iowa State
last weekend, Wisconsin (26-6) earned a trip to the Sweet Sixteen
for the third consecutive year and an opportunity for redemption
against No. 8 Texas (23-6) in the Austin regional of the 2006 NCAA
volleyball tournament.

Although this season has been nowhere as painful as last year's
""let's give the fans hope every game and then crush it in
excruciating fashion"" debacle, watching the Packers this season is
still like having a dull headache. It's not terrible, but it causes
mild discomfort nonetheless.

It seems everybody has an opinion these days on how the college
basketball season will shake out, so we figured we should as well.
We polled 11 Daily Cardinal and Courtside writers, asking them to
rank all 11 Big Ten teams. First place votes were worth 11 points,
and last place votes were worth one. Here is how it turned
out.

The results are in and the bracket is set for the 2006 NCAA
volleyball tournament, which begins next weekend. The No. 10
Wisconsin volleyball team (16-4 Big Ten, 24-6 overall) was placed
in the Austin, Texas bracket and received the opportunity to host
the first and second rounds. The Badgers' third-place finish in the
Big Ten conference—which features five American Volleyball Coaches
Association top 25 teams—likely contributed to their high seed in
the tournament.

The march to the NCAA tournament is on, and with just six more
conference matches left to play, the UW volleyball team is hoping
to add to their current five match win streak in an effort to build
momentum going into the post season. Wisconsin (11-3 Big Ten, 19-5
overall) will take on Northwestern (7-7, 13-10) and Illinois (5-9,
14-10) this weekend at the Field House in a pair of matches that
will likely have great implications in the Big Ten standings.

So close, yet so far. That has been the story of the UW
volleyball team's postseason campaign since seniors Maria Carlini,
Amy Bladow and Katie Lorenzen joined the program in 2003. Their
freshman year, they suffered a loss to Texas A&M in the second
round of the NCAA tournament. As sophomores and juniors, the trio
made it to the Elite Eight, only to fall just two matches short of
the title both years.

Following a pair of sensational victories against now No. 3 Penn
State and No. 25 Ohio State last weekend, the No. 10 UW volleyball
team (9-3 Big Ten, 17-5 overall) will look to continue its winning
ways as it goes on the road to face Michigan and Michigan State
this weekend. Despite the fact that the Badgers will be facing two
non-ranked opponents for the first time since mid-September, the
team does not underestimate the abilities of their Big Ten
opponents.

Despite having a great deal of momentum from a pair of
conference victories last weekend, the No. 11 Wisconsin volleyball
team (6-3 Big Ten, 14-5 overall) could not bring border rival No.
17 Minnesota's (8-1, 14-5) hot streak to an end last night, as the
Badgers fell to the Golden Gophers 30-20, 30-25, 30-28.

After three straight weekends of competition against Top 25
opponents, the No. 11 Wisconsin volleyball team (6-2 Big Ten, 14-4
overall) will gear up to take on yet another ranked conference
rival tonight when it battles No. 17 Minnesota (7-1, 13-5) for
second place in the Big Ten at the Sports Pavilion in Minneapolis.
The Badgers are coming off a pair of impressive wins against former
No. 9 Purdue and Indiana this past weekend, sweeping both of their
opponents in three games without the help of outstanding senior
outside hitter Maria Carlini.

conference opponents. The Badgers (8-2) will invade the state of
Illinois to take on the Fighting Illini (9-1) Friday and the
Northwestern Wildcats (6-3) Saturday.

Over the course of any collegiate volleyball game, so many
players sub in and out that often times fans fail to take note that
a new player has come in. But for Wisconsin Badger fans, it's hard
not to notice when senior middle blocker Amy Bladow takes the
court. Whether it's because she's crushing defenses across the net
with her powerful attacks, shouting out signals to her teammates,
or simply because she has decided to change her hair color as she
often does, everyone knows when Bladow is in the game and ready to
play.

not worn off for the team members.
