Coach Bono took his team on a day trip to Welsh-Ryan Arena in Evanston, Ill., as the Wisconsin Badgers wrestling team (5-11, 1-7 Big Ten) battled the Northwestern Wildcats (4-6, 2-5) on their senior night. The teams held their positions near the bottom of the Big Ten team standings, with Wisconsin in 13th and Northwestern in 12th. With that, Wisconsin finishes the conference competition with a single win.
Beginning with the 174-pound matchup, redshirt freshman Luke Condon improved his conference record to an even 4-4, defeating redshirt junior Aiden Vandenbush. Vandenbush, the former two-time WIAA state champion from Random Lake, opened with a leg-hold takedown, but Condon responded by slowing things down and picking up two takedowns for himself.
