The University of Wisconsin women’s basketball team will host an exhibition game Wednesday against UW-Platteville at the Kohl Center. The Badgers are looking to end their preseason on a high note by taking a win before their regular season begins Nov. 12 in a face-off against the Charlotte 49ers.
Their UW system counterpart, Platteville, had a mediocre 2016-17 season finishing with six wins and 19 losses. Their leading point scorer is junior Megan Horstman with 12.9 points per game.
Head coach Jonathan Tspis and the Badgers finished last season with a disappointing 9-22 record. Wisconsin struggled against both non-conference and Big 10 opponents, and was only able to obtain three wins out of 16 Big Ten conference games.
