Women’s basketball: Badgers desperate for a win with Rutgers in the crosshairs

The University of Wisconsin women’s basketball team (6-20, 1-12 Big Ten) will square off against Rutgers University (6-20, 3-10) in a battle of Big Ten teams near the bottom of the conference standings.

Both teams are coming off losses in their last game and have struggled mightily throughout the season. UW squared off with No. 2 Maryland on the road Wednesday night, and it wasn’t pretty to say the least.

The Badgers lost 89-40 and scored more than 10 points in only one quarter. UW was out of the game at halftime, already down 29 points. Wisconsin was once again plagued by turnovers, with 20 against the Terrapins.
