[Comment From AmyAmy: ] 
So I'm watching the Big Ten Network right now and it looks like the men's game that is on right now still has 9 minutes left. Will the BTN cut into the men's game? or will we have to wait to see the UW ladies until the men's game is done?
Tuesday November 24, 2009 7:28 Amy
7:28
Tip-off is scheduled for 8:05 p.m. so we should be pretty close. If the men's game runs long, we will be a little late to start.

Taylor has been making some big contributions as a true freshman. She currently ranks fifth on the team with 8.7 points per game. She also adds 4.0 rebounds per game. In case you missed Sunday's game vs. Cleveland State, Taylor scored the game-winning basket - quite the feat for a freshman!

The Badgers have four players that average double-figure scoring led by Alyssa Karel at 11.7. Tara Steinbauer adds 11.0 points per game while Rae Lin D'Alie chips in 10.7 points per game. Lin Zastrow contributes 10.0 points per game.

[Comment From AmyAmy: ] 
Do you forsee Taylor Wurtz breaking into the starting lineup in the near future? Or do you think she's more effective off the bench?
Tuesday November 24, 2009 7:45 Amy
7:46
Right now I think Taylor is very effective off the bench. The UW starters have played together the last two years and gel pretty well together. Taylor is a definite threat on offense and has really made a name for herself already with her hustle.
Tuesday November 24, 2009 7:46 
7:49
Green Bay is a very experienced team, playing in the NCAA tournament last season after winning the Horizon League. The Phoenix return only one starter - junior guard Celeste Hoewisch - and start three juniors, one sophomore and one freshman.
Tuesday November 24, 2009 7:49

In other games this season, Wisconsin led 38-23 at the half vs. North Dakota, led 35-29 at Milwaukee and trailed 40-28 vs. Cleveland State. I don't think you can say that leading or trailing at the half has made a difference with this team. They really haven't given up or panicked in any situation this season.
Tuesday November 24, 2009 9:04
