Women’s hockey: Why the women’s hockey team deserves more clout

The University of Wisconsin women’s hockey team is undoubtedly one of the most successful athletic programs on campus. With four national championships in the last 12 years and a chance at a fifth this year, there is no denying that the team has achieved success beyond that of other programs which receive more attention.

Despite the team’s widespread success and ripe conditions for consistent interest and student body engagement, many students are still either unaware or disinterested in the team.

Overall exposure for the team on social media is greater than that of the men’s hockey team.
