Wisconsin fails to overtake Wildcats, falls under .500 in conference

The Wisconsin Badgers lost their second straight game at the Kohl Center as the Northwestern Wildcats completed the season sweep.

The Badgers came into Sunday with hopes of clawing their way back to .500 among a vicious Big Ten conference schedule. After dropping their first matchup with the Wildcats, the second matchup proved to be a key midseason game for a young Wisconsin squad.

The play was slow on both ends of the Kohl Center, with many of Wisconsin’s points coming from drives to the basket and resolution in cross-court passes zipped to 3-point shooters.
