The Wisconsin Badgers suffered an unfortunate 87-79 overtime loss to the Michigan Wolverines, once again failing to win consecutive games, and dropping to 16-12 on the season with their playoff hopes in limbo currently.
However, all wasn’t bad, as freshman guard Connor Essegian continued to turn eyes, scoring a team-high 24 points, and making the go-ahead shot in regulation before Hunter Dickinson’s wild three.
In the strong performance, Essegian edged his way into Wisconsin’s record books, breaking Brad Davison’s record for the most three-pointers by a freshman, hitting his 61st three of the season against the Wolverines.
