10th ranked Badgers hand Northwestern 6th straight defeat (AUDIO)

By

After allowing Northwestern to score 34 points in the first half, Wisconsin coach Greg Gard said his team needed to be much better in the second half.  The 10th ranked Badgers got the message, allowing just 18 points in the second half, holding the Wildcats to their lowest point total of the season in a 68-52 Wisconsin victory at the Kohl Center.

“I thought we did a better job of stopping the ball and not letting them get in the paint,” said Gard.  “I thought the first half, we didn’t execute well enough in some of the ball-screen situations.  Second half, we were better.  We talked about some of those things at halftime.  The second 20, I thought we were more aggressive in the ball screens and eliminated some of that dribble penetration.” [Read more…]
