Women’s basketball: Badgers survive, advance over Penn State in Big Ten Tournament

In the first round of the Big Ten Women’s Basketball Tournament, the University of Wisconsin women’s basketball team (14-17, 4-14 Big Ten) were able to prolong their season by at least a day.

With a 65–57 win over the Penn State Nittany Lions (12-18, 5-13), Wisconsin will look forward to a matchup with The Ohio State — a team the Badgers lost to only six days ago.

The scoring duo of Marsha Howard and Imani Lewis once again carried the Badgers combining for almost half of the team’s points.

The remaining starters were able to chip in at least eight or more points as well.
