Wisconsin Basketball: Defense Makes Second Half Strides vs. Rutgers

It was a sloppy start for the Wisconsin Badgers basketball program filled with turnovers and missed shots. But a strong second half defensive showing masked the early blunders.

Tyler Wahl went out a winner at the Kohl Center after UW prevailed 78-66. The senior had a tough night with just 3 points and 6 rebounds to his name. However, the grateful red cheered him on after he checked out for one final time.

To fill the scoring void, AJ Storr had 19, Steven Crowl pitched in 17, John Blackwell had 17 off the bench, and Kamari McGee had 11 in his first game back from injury.
