After easily dispatching the TCU Horned Frogs on Friday night, the first big test of the early season came for the No. 2 Wisconsin Badgers volleyball in Saturday night in a top-10 showdown with the Baylor Bears.
The Badgers (2-0 overall, 0-0 Big Ten) — save for a blip in the third set — dominated the No. 10 Bears (1-1 overall, 0-0 Big 12) three sets to one (25-16, 25-7, 16-25, 25-15) at the UW Field House.
Wisconsin got off to a strong start early with the play of senior middle blocker Dana Rettke and freshman sensation Julia Orzou0142.
