Jon Leuer scored 18 of his 21 points in the second half and guard Jason Bohannon was the only other Wisconsin player to reach double figures with 10 points.

The loss ended the Badgers 6-game win streak and gave them their first Big Ten defeat this season.  Wisconsin has to rebound quickly.  They’ll return to Madison to host the 4th ranked Purdue Boilermakers on Saturday.
