Wrestling: Badgers Best Boilermakers in Barnburner

Want some good news, Badgers fans? The wrestlers went to Holloway Gymnasium (talk about a lame name for a venue) on Sunday and came home with a 24-15 win.

The No. 14 Wisconsin Badgers now stand at 8-4 (2-3 B1G) while sending the No. 18 Purdue Boilermakers to a 5-8 (0-5 B1G) dual meet record.

It was everything you’d hope for in an evenly matched match, including heart attack-inducing scrambles, controversial calls, lead changes, comebacks (lots and lots of comebacks), and a Cinderella ending.

We’ll go in order of weight class which, fittingly, saves the best for last.
