Wisconsin women’s sports are flying high.

We’ve always known that Wisconsin was place to be for women’s sports. 2017-18 is shaping up to be more of the same.

Women’s hockey is No. 1 in the country, undefeated after a pair of road wins over the weekend at Michigan Tech. The Badgers sit on top of the polls despite losing one of the best goaltenders in the world (Ann-Renée Desbiens) and their co-leader in goals last year (Sarah Nurse) to graduation, as well as their other co-leader and their No. 3 goal scorer from 2016-17 (Annie Pankowski and Emily Clark) to Olympic centralization.
