So many UW sports teams are ranked nationally right now, it is enough to make your head spin. You could call it a circle of success. The athletic department says solid coaching and talented players foster wins, which attract more coaches and players to Wisconsin.
“We had four national champions last year, mens and women’s hockey, men’s crosscountry and women’s lightweight crew,” says UW Senior Associate Athletic Director Vince Sweeney. “That’s pretty much unprecendented in our history.”
