Championship performances in the 1,500 meters and 400-meter relay to start the day set the stage for the Badgers, who totaled seven All-Big Ten performances and placed nine different athletes on the awards stand. It was good enough for second place in the team standings, as UWâ??s tallied 124 points behind Minnesota, who totaled 145 in defending its title. It is the Badgersâ?? ninth top-two finish in the last 11 years at the Big Ten outdoor meet and represented their best team score since tallying 145.5 points to win the title in 2007.
