Defensive Prowess Propels Lady Lions to Big Victory Over Wisconsin

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - After allowing 72 points over the first five games of conference play, the Lady Lions defense came up big in Monday night, allowing nearly half of that average to the visiting Wisconsin Badgers in a 76-46 victory at the Bryce Jordan Center.

Wisconsin's 46 points were the fewest points allowed in a game by Penn State against any team since December of 2015 when Sacred Heart scored the same amount. It was also the least the Lady Lions have allowed in Big Ten play since Wisconsin was only able to put up 40 one day shy of exactly four years ago.
