Women’s Basketball: Previewing UW’s first Big Ten test with Northwestern

Following a 10-point defeat at the hands of the Virginia Tech Hokies for the Big Ten/ACC Challenge Dec. 1, Marisa Moseley’s Wisconsin squad (2-6) faces off against a conference rival, the Northwestern Wildcats (5-3) on Sunday, Dec. 5.

The two last met Feb. 20, 2021, with Madison’s team coming up short in a 67-54 contest. With an 8-15 all-time mark and 1-14 record in their last 15 matches since Feb. 2013, the Badgers have certainly struggled historically when playing the Purple and White.

Anchored by Joe McKeown, the 2019-2020 Big Ten Coach of the Year with 733 career wins, the Wildcats experienced playoff success on a national stage.
