Grady, a 6’2 sophomore from Dublin, Ohio, hadn’t played in a game since January 7th, where she saw one minute of action and hit a three-pointer in Wisconsin’s 79-58 loss to the Washington Huskies.

Grady had been listed as out on Wisconsin’s injury report since that game, as she missed her fifth straight game on Wednesday without a reason for the absence.
