Heavy is the head that wears the crown.
That’s a famous quote from Shakespeare or something, but it also relates to the experience so far of Wisconsin volleyball (6-2 overall) this season.
The Badgers are national champions, Big Ten champions, ranked number six in the country, new holders of an attendance record for a regular season women’s volleyball game and a heavy favorite to get back to what would be a fourth straight Final Four despite being a very revamped and refurbished team.
Has all that hype gone to UW’s head, and led to the possibility of a Shakespearean tragic hero’s fall from grace?
