UW basketball: Memorial’s Blue commits to Badgers

Vander Blue, a talented sophomore guard who led Madison Memorial to the WIAA state tournament last March, has verbally committed to play basketball for the University of Wisconsin.

“I’ve been discussing it the last couple of weeks with my family. We took a visit up there and we really are excited about the whole thing,” said Blue in a phone conversation Monday night. “There’s a lot of good news about Wisconsin and, looking at the background and what’s coming in the future, by the time I get there it’s going to be a real good fit for me.”
