The Wisconsin Badgers won a hard-fought 60-50 game over the Stanford Cardinal at the Brew City Battle in Milwaukee, improving to 2-0 on the season.

Wisconsin got off to a strong start, spearheaded by forward Tyler Wahl, who scored on the initial drive before stealing a pass from Stanford big man James Keefe for a dunk, giving the Badgers a 7-2 lead within the first two minutes.

Over the next few minutes, as Wisconsin faced a cold 0/8 streak from the field, Stanford slowly crept back into the fold, as Harrison Ingram, Spencer Jones, and Michael Jones, each hit close shots to give the Cardinal an 8-7 at the 15-minute mark.
