Late charge derails threat

As Bo Ryan put it, the Wisconsin Badgers found a way Tuesday night.

For the first 30 minutes of their exhibition game against UW-Whitewater, the Badgers were in danger of becoming the latest Division I basketball team to fall to a Division III opponent. When it counted most, though, they buckled down on defense, crashed the boards and starting clicking on offense.

The result was a 64-47 victory over the Warhawks in a game that was as difficult as Ryan predicted.
