Wisconsin basketball game recap: Badgers win exhibition contest with UW-La Crosse

Coming off of a season where the Wisconsin men’s basketball team went 23-11 on the year with an early exit in the NCAA Tournament, the Badgers were back in action Friday night against UW-La Crosse in their first and last exhibition game prior to the start of the 2019-2020 season.

The Badgers were able to handle the Eagles 82 to 53. La Crosse was able to stick around for the first ten or so minutes of the first half, but Wisconsin went into halftime with a 43 to 22 lead due to a 15-2 run to end the half.
