Wisconsin Hoops Recap

As the season winds down, I think it's only fair that I give you both a Marquette wrap up and the Wisconsin wrap up because I know we have readers of each team and we don't talk enough Badgers.  I am just going to give you today, a paragraph or two thought on the game.

Marquette 86 Providence 62- I worried about this game somewhat because there was a potential for a letdown after upsetting UConn. I thought something that is worth noting is the play of Junior Cadougan and Chris Otule. Junior has assumed the role of point guard with his play in the last two weeks and finally felt confident to score on the offensive end. He had 10 points 10 dimes and 6 rebounds. If he starts doing that, Marquette will be really strong in the next month. Otule had 16 and 6 boards patrolling the inside. When Marquette has somewhat of an inside presence, teams have a tough time defending this squad

Wisconsin 78 Northwestern 63- The Badgers got probably one of their best nights out of Jon Leuer in the last month dropping 26 points and 6 rebounds. He played really strong all night, and that's what makes Bucky dangerous. One day it could be Leuer, the other day it could Jordan Taylor, both play at a very high level. It's a nice problem to have in the tournament.  Badgers shot nearly 60 percent getting very high efficient shots, and it basically took away the fact the Wildcats made 11 threes in the game.
