Saturday’s matchup with Northwestern postponed

As a result of Northwestern’s COVID-19 outbreak, the Badgers contest against the Wildcats has been postponed to an undetermined later date.

Wisconsin (12-5) was set to take on Northwestern (12-5) on the road Saturday, but the game has now been postponed to an undetermined later date as the Wildcats continue to deal with a COVID-19 outbreak within their program.

As a result of the postponement, the Badgers will return to the court Wednesday (Jan. 25) to face Maryland (12-6)  in College Park. Wisconsin will look to take advantage of some added rest, getting eight days of off following their 63-60 win over Penn State at the Kohl Center.

For Northwestern, the postponement was their second consecutive, last playing Jan. 15 versus Michigan. The team is tentatively set to play next Tuesday in Lincoln against Nebraska (10-9) if they can clear COVID-19 protocols by then.
