Wisconsin volleyball: UW battles back to beat the Gophers in five sets

MINNEAPOLIS — In front of a raucous, sold-out, Senior Day crowd at Maturi Pavilion in Minneapolis, the No. 5 Wisconsin Badgers (23-3 overall, 15-3 Big Ten) mounted a massive comeback against the No. 9 Minnesota Golden Gophers (17-8 overall, 12-5 Big Ten) and won the Border Battle clash 24-26, 25-19, 25-27, 26-28, 15-12 on Sunday night.

“This was just an epic volleyball match. We told them in the fourth set, let’s not get too stressed about this thing, stay tuned in and stretch it out. It was two teams that were balling out. Had we been on the losing side, I would not change anything about the match.
