Even casual followers of the Wisconsin Badgers athletic department know that the women’s basketball team hasn’t been making a lot of noise in recent years. The Badgers finished last season 12-19 overall and 3-15 in the B1G, which was good for twelfth in the conference, tied for their best finish during coach Jonathan Tsipis’ four year run in Madison. They haven’t made the NCAA Tournament in a decade.
However, a young Badgers team (there are zero seniors, three juniors and one grad transfer on the roster) is looking to change your perception in the 2020-21 season.
