It was not the ending the Wisconsin men's hockey team (16-6-1 Western Collegiate Hockey Association, 21-8-2 overall) imagined for their final weekend home series; nonetheless, the team proved it could not only keep up with the top team in the WCHA, but will undoubtedly be a strong contender going into the WCHA playoffs and the NCAA ones as well.
With 2:46 left in the first half of the Badger victory over Michigan, senior forward Zach Morley went up for the offensive board before landing hard on his back, his face grimaced in pain. As the Kohl Center held its collective breath waiting to see if Morley would have to be helped off he court, he carefully stood up and jogged off the court to the relief of the 17,142 people in attendance.
Basketball fans in Madison may be the only ones who no longer do a double take when sophomore guard Kammron Taylor walks onto the basketball court. But the player who bears an eerie resemblance to comedian Chris Rock has begun to build his own reputation on the court that surpasses just a superficial similarity to a celebrity.
The Badger sideline will temporarily have one empty seat while freshman forward Brian Butch continues to be sidelined after being diagnosed with mononucleosis last Wednesday by a team doctor. His return date is unknown at this time, but the Badger players hope he will be ready to return at least by tournament time.
The last time the Wisconsin men's basketball team (7-4 Big Ten, 16-6 overall) faced Michigan (3-8, 12-13), the game itself was a blip on the radar. Two games against No. 1 Illinois lurked ahead and all the hype pushed the Michigan game to the background. Since then, Wisconsin fell twice to the top team in the nation and the Fighting Illini are poised to capture another Big Ten championship.
More than a week ago when the Badgers found themselves down by eleven points in the final minutes against Michigan State at the Kohl Center, it was the Spartans missing crucial free throws and the Badgers hitting critical shots. After Tuesday's loss to Illinois, irony reared its ugly head.
The No. 23 Wisconsin men's basketball team (4-1 Big Ten, 13-3 overall) continued to surge ahead Saturday and avoided being caught off guard at the Crisler Arena against Michigan (3-2, 12-7), beating the Wolverines 72-61.
After struggling early in the Big Ten season, the women's basketball team (7-9 overall, 1-5 Big Ten) found welcome relief in a non-conference blowout against Cleveland State 87-71 on Thursday night.
After a two-week lull, the Wisconsin men's hockey team returned to the ice at the Kohl Center to take part in the Badger Hockey Showdown New Year's weekend. In the first round, then-No. 4 Wisconsin faced Yale. The matchup went in the record book as an official 1-1 tie, although the Badgers won in a shootout.
The phrase \1 and 0"" takes on a whole new meaning for the Badgers Jan. 1 when UW takes to the field one last time this season against Georgia in the Outback Bowl in Tampa, Fla.
With the Badgers' victory over UW-Green Bay only minutes over, questions already turned to the next two in-state opponents, Marquette on Saturday and UW-Milwaukee on Dec. 15. While the Marquette game may be, as senior guard Sharif Chambliss said, the hottest ticket in Wisconsin, the matchup between UW and the Panthers may be a sleeper game.
In a game where at one point the Badgers (5-1) led by 21 points with five minutes left in the half, UW-Green Bay Head Coach Tod Kowalczyk said the game was at its most frustrating in the early minutes when Wisconsin opened with a 12-0 run.
As fierce as the UW men's basketball team looks on the court, it may be nothing when compared to the battle for the Christmas pickle at the Hanson house.
After Saturday's 3-2 victory over the University of Minnesota-Duluth (5-4-0 Western Collegiate Hockey Association, 7-5-2 overall) gave Wisconsin (8-3-0, 11-4-0) the sweep and continued a six-game winning streak, Head Coach Mike Eaves was still feeling frustrated. Eaves admitted the team did not have a good week of practice, and it spilled over into the weekend series' play, where the Badgers never found any sort of rhythm.
The No. 2 UW men's hockey team (7-3-0 Western Collegiate Hockey Association, 10-4-0 overall) looks to continue its early season surge this weekend against an equally tough and perennial post-season contender in No. 14 Minnesota-Duluth (5-3-0, 7-5-2) at the Kohl Center.
A year ago when Ross Carlson arrived at Wisconsin midway through the year, things took an awkward turn for the sophomore forward. After realizing that he didn't have a stall, he put his gear on a chair. Upon arrival the next day, a teammate's possessions had been moved out to give Carlson room.
The last three years have left Badger fans with high expectations of the men's basketball team. Last season's team managed a Big Ten Conference Tournament Championship, a perfect record at home and a school record 25 victories. With Devin Harris leaving for the NBA and junior guard Boo Wade taking an indefinite absence from the team, UW basketball fans bite their nails anxiously, waiting to see who will take the lead for this year's squad.
The Badger women's basketball team closed out their second and final exhibition game against Minnesota State-Moorhead with a 74-64 victory and showed statistical improvement since a loss last week in their exhibition opener against Wisconsin AAU.
The Kohl Center provided many familiar sights Wednesday night-from senior forward Mike Wilkinson's always consistent presence on the floor to Head Coach Bo Ryan angrily challenging a referee's call. However, perhaps most exciting about the 81-42 blow-out over UW-Parkside was not only the new look of the arena, but the new look of the team.
