Following Wednesday’s up-and-down battle against Nebraska, Marisa Moseley’s Wisconsin squad (7-20, 4-13 Big Ten) ventures to West Lafayette for a showdown with Katie Gearlds and the Purdue Boilermakers (16-12, 7-10 Big Ten) Feb. 27.
The two last met Feb. 13 of this year, when UW pulled off the most miraculous comeback in program history and secured its fourth conference victory of the season.
The Badgers held Gearlds’ group to just 17 combined second-half points. With a 2-3 record against Purdue since December of 2018, Wisconsin aims to complete the sweep this season.
Orchestrated by first-year head coach Katie Gearlds, anchor of the 2016 and 2017 National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics championship teams at Marian University, the Boilermakers score 69.
