After dropping four of their last five matches to Big Ten opponents, Marisa Moseley’s Wisconsin squad (4-13, 1-6 Big Ten) faces the Penn State Nittany Lions (9-7, 3-3 Big Ten) in Madison Jan. 23.
The two last squared off on February 7th, 2021, with the Blue and White edging out the Badgers 98-74. With an 8-14 mark since 2002 and 5-5 record in their last 10 matches, the Badgers will look to break .500 against their conference rival and steal a victory vs. the Nittany Lions on Sunday afternoon.
Orchestrated by Carolyn Kieger, the mentor of three All-Big Ten talents and a former Naismith Women’s Coach of the Year nominee, the 2020-2021 Penn State squad went 9-15 and even notched a top-25 victory against a formidable Ohio State squad during a shortened season.
