Badgers Out of AP PollWisconsin dropped out of the receiving votes category of the Associated Press poll on Jan. 12 for the first time in seven weeks. The Badgers had been receiving votes in the poll for six straight weeks, the first time since the 2001–02 season that the UW was ranked or received votes in the poll for consecutive weeks.

In other RPI ratings, Wisconsin is ranked 36th and 32nd for strength of schedule by CollegeRPI.com. The site also projects the Badgers to finish 19-10 on the season and finish 42nd in the RPI. UW is 27th in RPI and 32nd in strength of schedule by RPIRatings.com and 34th in RPI and 30th in strength of schedule by RealTimeRPI.com.

Bracketology PickCharlie Creme from ESPN.com updated his Bracketology for the 2009 NCAA Tournament on Jan. 20 and picked the Badgers as a 10th-seed in the Seattle regional. “The Badgers’ Big Ten start has been a bit inconsistent, but their big wins over Baylor and Marquette will help the resumé all season,” according to Creme. Creme has the UW facing Oklahoma State in the first round of the tournament. Wisconsin has not competed in the NCAA tournament since 2002 when it lost to Arizona State in the first round. The Badgers are 2-6 in six NCAA appearances.

Tough ScheduleThe Badgers have a tough schedule for 2008–09, playing eight games against 2008 NCAA tournament teams, 13 games against teams that competed in the 2008 WNIT and 10 games against teams that are ranked in the most recent Associated Press poll, released Jan. 19. Ranked teams are Baylor (5th) and Ohio State (19th) as well as South Dakota State, Purdue, Indiana, Minnesota and Green Bay, which receive votes this week. 2008 NCAA Tournament teams were Iowa, Minnesota, Ohio State and Purdue while 2008 WNIT Tournament teams were South Dakota State, Drake, Villanova, Green Bay, Marquette, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Michigan State.

Badgers in the NCAA StatisticsWisconsin ranks 21st nationally in scor-ing defense for games through Jan. 18, giving up only 54.2 points per game. The Badgers are also 30th in 3-point field goal percentage at 36.6 (93-of-254). UW ranks 28th in turnovers per game (15.71) and 52nd in blocks per game (4.58).

Bucking the TrendsWisconsin loss at Indiana went against a number of trends that the Badgers had seen most of the season. The loss was the first for the Badgers when an opponent shot under 40 percent as well as when the UW made more field goals. UW falls to 10-1 when it makes more field goals and 9-2 when an opponent shoots under 40 percent. The Badgers losses at Northwestern and at Penn State were the first time all season that UW lost when leading at half time.

Karel had two early fouls vs. the Hoosiers and played a season-low 13 minutes. She fouled out of the game with a minute remaining.

Zastrow and Gant Step Up Play in Big TenSophomore Lin Zastrow and junior Teah Gant have stepped up their offense during Big Ten play.

DID YOU KNOW?

The Kohl Center is the third largest arena in the Big Ten Conference. It is the home to the UW men’s and women’s basketball as well as the men’s and women’s hockey teams.

The facility is named after U.S. Senator Herb Kohl, a 1956 UW graduate, who donated $25 million toward the arena’s construction.

The facility cost $76.4 million to build once it was completed in 1998. The 10th an-niversary of the building was celebrated during the 2007-08 basketball season.

The video replay scoreboard and ring beam were added to the arena in 2004.

The Kohl Center features 36 private suites and the Nicholas Suite, with a capacity of 200 people for public gatherings.

Badger BlockThe Badgers had a season-high nine blocks against Minnesota, including a career-high five blocks from Mariah Dunham. Wisconsin ranks fourth in the Big Ten with 4.45 blocks per game. Dunham is tied for eighth with 1.39 blocks per game while Lin Zastrow is 10th with 1.35 blocks per game.

Winning StreakWisconsin won 10 in a row from Nov. 20 through Dec. 13, tying the second-longest winning streak in program history. It was also the longest winning streak among all Big Ten teams this season. The longest UW winning streak is 15 games during the 2001-02 season.

Great Start!The Badgers started the season 10-1, one of their best starts ever. The best season open-ing was 9-0 by the 1997–98 team. With one loss, Wisconsin’s 10-1 start equaled the third-best ever. The Badgers were 16-1 in 2001–02, 13-1 in 1982–83 and 10-1 in 2006–07.

Wisconsin Wins Border BattleThe Badgers picked up all 40 points for women’s basketball in the 2008–09 Border Battle with a 62-52 win over Minnesota on Dec. 29. The two teams meet only once this regular season so all 40 points were on the line in the game.

Best in the StateThe Badgers defeated all three state Division I teams this season for the unofficial title of best team in the state. UW downed Milwaukee in double overtime on Dec. 2, defeated Green Bay on the road on Dec. 10 and beat Marquette on Dec. 13. It is the first time that Coach Lisa Stone defeated all three teams in the same sea-son. The Badgers have played all three teams only four other years and won all three games in 1976–77, before Milwaukee and Green Bay were Division I.

Double Overtime ThrillerWith a 71-69 double overtime win over UW-Milwaukee on Dec. 2, Wisconsin improved to 4-3 in double-overtime games and 24-20 in all overtime games. The overtime win is also the first in head coach Lisa Stone’s six-year tenure at Wisconsin.

Tournament WinnersWisconsin won the Island Division of the Paradise Jam on Nov. 29, its first tournament title since winning the 2006 Lady Rebel Shootout in Las Vegas. Sophomore Alyssa Karel was named the division MVP while junior Rae Lin D’Alie was named to the all-tournament team.

Upsetting No. 6/7 BaylorUW’s upset win over No. 6/7 Baylor on Nov. 29 was the highest-ranked team the Badgers have defeated in head coach Lisa Stone’s tenure. The win was Wisconsin’s first over a top-10 opponent since defeating then-No. 7 Purdue, 71-59, on Dec. 28, 2001, and the first time Wisconsin has beaten a ranked team since Feb. 19, 2006, when it upset No. 17 Minnesota, 67-61.

Wisconsin, 69Canisius, 54

Kohl Center, Madison, Wis.November 23, 2008

It was a complete team effort Sunday afternoon at the Kohl Center as every single Badger that suited up played and 10 of the 12 players scored to help Wisconsin knock off Canisius, 69-54 in front of 4,878 fans. The Badgers have won their last two games and are 2-1 on the season while Canisius drops to 1-2. Statistically, the Badgers played their best game of the season and several Badgers fi nished with new career or season highs. Wisconsin shot 49.1 percent from the fl oor and was led by 16 points from freshman guard Jamie Russell. Russell went 6-10 on the afternoon and drained two 3-pointers for a new career high. Sophomore guard Alyssa Karel scored in double fi g-ures for the third straight game and fi nished with 10 points. Sophomore forward Tara Steinbauer chipped in a season-high nine points while junior guard Teah Gant added a season-best eight points and scored just her second career 3-pointer. Canisius shot 42.4 percent from the fi eld and was led by 19 points from Micayla Drysdale. The Golden Griffi ns fi n-ished with the slight edge on rebounds at 24-23. Sophomore forward Lin Zastrow led Wisconsin with seven boards while Karel grabbed fi ve. Wisconsin took advantage of its rebounds though and out-scored Canisius 13-4 on second-chance points. The Badgers had more assists in Sunday’s game than they have had all season. Coming into Sunday, Wisconsin totaled just 11 assists and against Canisius, fi nished with a season-high 16 assists.

Wisconsin, 47Villanova, 45

Paradise Jam, St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin IslandsNovember 27, 2008

The pressure was on for the Wisconsin women’s basket-ball team and the Badgers responded in the fi nal seconds of its opening game at the Paradise Jam. After losing an 11-point lead in the second half and trailing for more than 10 minutes late in the second half, the Badgers took the lead back won in the fi nal minute, 47-45 against Villanova to improve to 3-1 on the season. The Wildcats drop to 2-2. Wisconsin’s fi nal tally of 47 is the least amount of points scored in a Badger win since a 46-36 win over Northern Illi-nois on Feb. 21, 1976. Wisconsin trailed by two points with 1:26 left in the game but a 3-pointer by Alyssa Karel gave the Badgers the lead back at 44-43. Villanova attempted to take the lead but Laura Kurz missed a layup with 36 seconds remaining and freshman forward Anya Covington grabbed the board to give the Badgers the ball. Villanova fouled Rae Lin D’Alie three times to get into the bonus and D’Alie delivered, making two free throws. The Wildcats pulled within one at 46-45 with 12 seconds left after a layup by Tia Grant but D’Alie made one-of-two free throws with 10 seconds left and the Badgers stuck to their defense and forced a missed layup by Grant to end the game. Covington had her best game of the season and fi nished two points away from her fi rst double-double. She grabbed a career high 10 rebounds and fi nished with eight points (which ties her career high), all of which came in a fi ve and a half min-ute stretch in the second half. She also fi nished with one block. Wisconsin fi nished 16-of-45 for the game and shot 35.6 percent. Villanova shot 33.3 percent for the game but after struggling at 21.1 percent in the fi rst half, shot 42.3 percent in the second half.

Wisconsin, 65UCF, 61


It was another wild fi nish for the Wisconsin women’s bas-ketball team at the Paradise Jam. The Badgers, who led by as many as 12 points in the second half, saw their lead diminish to fi ve points but held off UCF to win, 65-61, in their second-round game on Friday. Wisconsin (4-1) will play Baylor for the bracket title of the tournament on Saturday at 2:30 p.m. Four Badgers scored in double fi gures, led by Alyssa Karel’s season-high 17 points. The sophomore guard has scored in double fi gures every game this season. Rae Lin D’Alie added 14 points for the Badgers while fresh-man Jade Davis and sophomore Tara Steinbauer both came off the bench to chip in 10 points apiece; a career best for Davis. Wisconsin shot its best fi eld goal percentage of the season, fi nish-ing 27-of-53 for 50.9 percent. The Badgers were 5-of-13 from the 3-point line with D’Alie going 2-for-2 and Davis fi nishing 2-for-3. UCF (1-4) was 0-2 from 3-point range. Freshman Anya Covington fi nished just one point shy of her fi rst career double-double. She tallied a career-high nine points and recorded double-fi gure boards for the second game in a row. The 6-2 forward pulled down a career-high 11 rebounds today after leading the Badgers with 10 boards yesterday vs. Villanova. Covington also swatted away three of the Badgers’ four blocks. UCF, which came in averaging 48.7 rebounds per game, out-rebounded Wisconsin 38-32. Cannon led UCF with nine boards while Steinbauer, D’Alie and Karel each added four rebounds for the Badgers.

Wisconsin, 59No. 6 Baylor, 58


Alyssa Karel made the game-winning shot with seven sec-onds remaining to lead the Wisconsin women’s basketball team to a 59-58 upset over No. 6/7 Baylor on Saturday afternoon. The Badgers (5-1) win the Island Division of the Paradise Jam, their fi rst tournament title since winning the 2006 Lady Rebel Shootout in Las Vegas. It was also the highest-ranked team the Badgers have defeated in head coach Lisa Stone’s tenure. The win was Wisconsin’s fi rst over a top-10 opponent since defeating then-No. 7 Purdue, 71-59, on Dec. 28, 2001 and the fi rst time Wisconsin has beaten a ranked team since Feb. 19, 2006, when it upset No. 17 Minnesota, 67-61. The Badgers rallied from a 10-point defi cit in the second half to take their fi rst lead of the game with just seven seconds left. After Mariah Dunham hit one of two free throws to put the Badgers within one with 53 seconds left, Karel nailed a jumper to put Wisconsin up 59-58. Baylor had one last chance and missed a jumper but Melissa Jones grabbed the offensive rebound, attempted the putback and was fouled by Lin Zastrow with just 0.5 sec-onds left on the clock. Jones had the chance to win or tie the game with two free throws. Jones missed both as the Badgers celebrated their fi fth straight win and Paradise Jam champion-ship title. Karel earned tournament MVP honors and was joined on the all-tournament team by junior guard Rae Lin D’Alie. Karel, who has scored double fi gures in every game this season, led the Badgers in scoring every game during the jam, includ-ing her 15 points against Baylor. Karel also fi nished with fi ve rebounds, two assists and two steals. D’Alie fi nished with six rebounds, four points, a rebound and an assist.

Wisconsin, 71UW-Milwaukee, 69 (2OT)

Kohl Center, Madison, Wis.December 2, 2008

Despite relinquishing a 16-point lead, the Wisconsin wom-en’s basketball team won its sixth-straight game Tuesday night, surviving two overtime periods in a 71-69 win over UW-Milwau-kee. The Badgers (6-1) have now won six-straight games and are out to their best start since beginning the 2006-07 season 6-0. The Badgers also snapped UW-Milwaukee’s three-game winning streak and the Panthers drop to 3-3 on the season. Wisconsin had its biggest lead of the game at the 11:15 mark in the second half (47-31) but UW-Milwaukee outscored Wisconsin 23-7 to end the game and sent it into overtime. Despite trailing by four points twice in the overtime, Alyssa Karel hit a 3-pointer with eight seconds left to tie the score and force double-overtime, Wisconsin’s fi rst since Dec. 11, 2005. The Badgers jumped out to a six-point lead in double overtime but the Panthers managed to pull within one with 7.6 seconds left. Mariah Dunham then went to the line and made 1-of-2 free throws to put the Badgers up 71-69. UW-Milwaukee had one last opportunity but couldn’t get a shot off before time expired and the Badgers won their sixth-straight. Wisconsin is now 4-3 in double-overtime games and has a 24-20 program overtime record. The overtime win is also the fi rst in head coach Lisa Stone’s six-year tenure at Wisconsin. Dunham’s made free throw in the second overtime was her 16th point of the game, which is a new season high. She led the Badgers in scoring and went 5-10 from the fi eld while grabbing two rebounds and swatting two blocks in 26 minutes. Three other Badgers scored in double fi gures including 11 from Karel (which is her seventh-straight game in double fi gures), a season-high 11 points from Tara Steinbauer off the bench and another 10 off the bench from freshman Jade Davis. Wisconsin struggled offensively though, shooting just 34.8 percent from the fi eld.

Wisconsin, 61Virginia Tech, 52

Kohl Center, Madison, WisDecember 4, 2008

The Badgers notched a win for the Big Ten Conference and their seventh straight of the season Thursday night by defeat-ing Virginia Tech, 61-52 at the Kohl Center. Wisconsin’s win gives the Big Ten just its second win in the ACC-Big Ten Chal-lenge with two more games to play Friday night. The win also puts the Badgers (7-1) in the record books as the team has now won seven-straight games for the sixth time in school history, the last seven-game streak coming during the 2001-02 season. The Badgers went on to win 15-straight games that season. Just one Badger player fi nished in double fi gures but four more scored eight-or-more points. Junior guard Alyssa Karel scored in double fi gures for the eighth-straight game and fi nished with a team high 14 points on 5-of-8 shooting and went 3-of-4 from beyond the 3-point line. Junior guard Rae Lin D’Alie scored nine points, eight of which came in the fi nal six minutes of the game. Mariah Dunham entered the starting lineup for the fi rst time this season and scored eight points and a season-high three blocks while Teah Gant had a solid game with eight points and a new career high seven rebounds. Sophomore Tara Steinbauer came off the bench with eight points and six rebounds. Sophomore forward Lin Zastrow also contributed off the bench with fi ve points and four rebounds. Lindsay Biggs led all scorers with a career-high 22 points. She scored 15 points in the fi rst half and fi nished 8-of-19 from the fi eld. Utahya Drye chipped in 14 points and nine rebounds for Virginia Tech (5-2). Both teams shot under 40 percent for the game with Vir-ginia Tech fi nishing at 37.0 percent and Wisconsin shot 34.0 percent (18-53). The Badgers shot 40.7 percent in the fi rst half but came out cold in the second, going just 7-of-26 for 26.9 percent.

Alyssa Karel fi nished with nine, her fi rst game all season she did not score in double fi gures. The Badgers came out hot in the fi rst half, shooting 65.2 percent but fi nished at 50 percent after going 7-of-21 in the second half.

Wisconsin, 67Marquette, 48


For the fi rst time in head coach Lisa Stone’s tenure, the Wisconsin women’s basketball team completed the in-state sweep by defeating Marquette 67-48 Saturday afternoon in front of a season-high 5,773 fans at the Kohl Center. The win also extends Wisconsin’s winning streak to 10 games, which ties for the second-longest winning streak in school history. The Badgers close out non-conference action with a 10-1 record and begin Big Ten Conference play Dec. 22. Wisconsin’s 10-1 record ties for the third-best start in program history. The Badgers had a complete team effort in the win with three players fi nishing in double fi gures and many others contributing in other stat categories. Sophomore guard Alyssa Karel led all scorers with 18 points in 7-of-16 shooting. Junior guard Rae Lin D’Alie tallied 14 points, dished out seven assists and had just one turnover in 39 minutes. Junior guard Teah Gant had a season-high 10 points and was two rebounds away from a double-double after grabbing a career-high eight boards. Junior Mariah Dunham was also close to a double-double with nine points and nine rebounds while fi nishing with a game-high three blocks. Sophomore Tara Steinbauer added eight points and seven rebounds off the bench. The Badgers shot 23-of-55 to fi n-ish at 41.8 percent for the game. No one fi nished in double fi gures for Marquette (7-3) and the team was led by nine points apiece from Paige Fiedorowicz and Angel Robinson. Marquette’s preseason All-America candidate Krystal Ellis was held to a season-low seven points and fouled out for the fi rst time all season. Marquette was held to just 13-of-56 for 23.2 percent from the fi eld, which is a season low for a Wisconsin opponent and a Kohl Center record.

Assembly Hall, Champaign, Ill.January 1, 2009

It was a great way to start the new year as the Wisconsin women’s basketball team opened 2009 with a 53-38 win at Illi-nois on Thursday night. The Badgers allowed the Illini (4-10, 0-3) to score only 38 points, a season low for a UW opponent, 10 of which came in the last few minutes of the game.

Lin Zastrow added nine points while Rae Lin D’Alie and Teah Gant chipped in eight and seven points, respectively. Mariah Dunham, Caitlin Gibson and Tara Stein-bauer each scored four points. UW was less than stellar from the fi eld, shooting just 37.2 percent (16-of-43) but held Illinois to 13-of-49 (26.5 percent) shooting. Wisconsin was 15-of-20 from the line, including 6-of-6 by Zastrow, while Illinois was 11-of-14. The Badgers edged the Illini, 34-32, in rebounds, led by nine from Dunham. D’Alie added fi ve rebounds. Illinois’ preseason All-Big Ten selection Jenna Smith led all scorers with 21 points, but was only 6-of-16 from the fi eld.

Wisconsin, 56Penn State, 58 OT

Bryce Jordan Center, University Park, Pa.January 22, 2009

The Badgers survived a seven-minute scoring drought and staved off an inspired comeback by Penn State to force overtime Thursday, only to see Tyra Grant lead the Nittany Lions to a last-second, 58-56 win at the Bryce Jordan Center. Despite leading by as many as 17 in the second half, the Badgers couldn’t fi nd a counter to Grant’s game-high 32 points on 12-for-24 shooting from the fl oor and a 5-for-7 performance at the free throw line. Grant accounted for 12 of Penn State’s 13 points in the overtime, including the game-clinching basket as time expired. The bucket broke the 56-56 tie that Wisconsin’s Teah Grant forced with her layup with 14 seconds to play and snapped the Badgers’ two-game win streak against Penn State (8-10, 3-5 Big Ten). For the second straight game, Alyssa Karel led the way for the Badgers with 15 points on 5-of-10 shooting, including a 3-for-4 effort from beyond the 3-point arc. Mariah Dunham added 12 points to go along with nine rebounds, while Teah Grant chipped in eight points and Lin Zastrow and Tara Stein-bauer each fi nished with six. The Badgers (14-6, 4-5 Big Ten) led by as many as 13 points in the fi rst half and built a 24-15 lead at halftime, with Penn State’s scoring output the second-lowest allowed by the Badgers in a half this season. Penn State managed just 25 percent shooting in the period (6-for-24), while the UW connected on 10-of-21 from the fi eld (47 percent).
