The Wisconsin women can finally celebrate 2025, as they posted their first win of the new year Wednesday night over Michigan, 82-75.
Coming into the game, the Badgers (11-10, 2-8) had dropped eight in a row. Their last victory came on Dec. 20 when they topped UAlbany at home.
Since that time, Wisconsin has lost seven of those eight by double digits.
But on this night, it all came together for them.
