Here is Wisconsin's injury report for the remainder of the season. The Badgers will only have nine healthy players the rest of the way. Senior Taylor Wurtz has elected to take a medical redshirt for the rest of the 2012-13 season. The 6-0 guard has been bothered by a re-occurring back problem and had surgery Jan. 3. Sophomore AnnMarie Brown had surgery Jan. 4 for a torn ACL suffered in practice Dec. 18. She is out for the season as well.

Tam Flarup:

After a bye weekend, the Badgers (9-11 overall, 1-6 Big Ten) return home for two games this week in the Kohl Center. Wisconsin faces No. 7 Penn State (17-2, 7-0) for the second time in two weeks when the Nittany Lions come to town on Thursday. Tip-off is at 7 p.m.

UW also hosts Illinois (10-8, 3-3) on Sunday at 2 p.m. UW has four of the next five games at home.

Tam Flarup:

Wisconsin finally wraps up its tough stretch in which it played five of six games against teams that were ranked or receive votes in the national polls. Included in the stretch were two games against Iowa (No. 24 this week) and No. 8/7 Penn State.

UW equaled its win total from the 2011-12 season with the victory over Ohio State on Jan. 20.

Thursday January 31, 2013 6:26 Tam Flarup

6:27

Tam Flarup:

Wisconsin has the 12th toughest schedule in the nation and the toughest schedule in the Big Ten, according to the Jeff Sagarin/CBN Women's College Basketball Ratings released Jan. 28.

Thursday January 31, 2013 6:27 Tam Flarup

6:28

Tam Flarup:

UW leads the Big Ten and ranks eighth nationally in free throw percentage at .777. The Badgers tied a school record by making 15-of-15 from the line vs. Ohio State on Jan. 20.

Thursday January 31, 2013 6:28 Tam Flarup

6:29

Tam Flarup:

The Badgers had two players record double-doubles at Iowa on Jan. 24 for the first time since last season. Junior Cassie Rochel scored a career-high 17 points and tied her career best with 14 rebounds. Sophomore Jacki Gulczynski added 13 points and 10 rebounds. The loss at Iowa was a close affair throughout with the Badgers leading with 4 minutes left. The final was Iowa 71, Wis. 60.

Thursday January 31, 2013 6:29 Tam Flarup

6:32

Tam Flarup:

In 11 of the last 13 games, senior point guard Tiera Stephen has dished off six-or-more assists, including eight assists the last two games. She averages 6.5 assists over the stretch and 5.7 per game on the season.

Thursday January 31, 2013 6:32 Tam Flarup

6:33

Tam Flarup:

Stephen ranks among the top-30 players in the nation in steals per game (19th with 3.3) and assists per game (26th/5.7). She leads the Big Ten in conference-only games, averaging 4.1 steals per game.

Thursday January 31, 2013 6:33 Tam Flarup

6:34

Tam Flarup:

Wisconsin ended its six-game losing streak in dramatic fashion winnings its first Big Ten game of the season with a 68-49 win over Ohio State on Jan. 20. It was the first time in 10 years and 20 games that the Badgers have defeated the Buckeyes.

The Badgers opened the Big Ten season 0-5, their worst start since 1989-90 when the team was also 0-5.

Thursday January 31, 2013 6:34 Tam Flarup

6:35

Tam Flarup:

Wisconsin continues to look for more consistent scoring as only junior Morgan Paige and sophomore Jacki Gulczynski are the only two players to average double figures on the season. Paige has scored in double figures in 17 of 20 games while Gulczynski has scored in double figures in the last 13 games.

In 13 games this season, Wisconsin has had three-or-more players in double-digit scoring, sporting an 9-4 record. With only one or two players scoring 10-or-more points, UW is 0-7.

Thursday January 31, 2013 6:35 Tam Flarup

6:36

Tam Flarup:

The Badgers could use more bench scoring. With season-ending injuries to Taylor Wurtz and AnnMarie Brown, UW has only nine players seeing action for the remainder of the season. Combined, the four players currently coming in off the bench average 5.6 points per game.

Thursday January 31, 2013 6:36 Tam Flarup

6:38

Tam Flarup:

The Badgers like to play at home where they are 7-3 this season (6-3 in the Kohl Center and 1-0 in the Field House), compared to a 1-8 mark for away games. UW is 1-0 in neutral games.

UW averages more than 22 more points per game at home and nearly seven more rebounds per game than on the road and shows improvement in nearly every stat category.

21:42 to the National Anthem

Thursday January 31, 2013 6:38 Tam Flarup

Tam Flarup:

Penn State is a formidable opponent as the conference leader with a 7-0 record. They have won their last 14 games, and with a 17-2 record have their best start since 1992-93. The Badgers played poorly in their last meeting losing 84-40 in Happy Valley.

Even though Penn State is known as the Nittany Lions, the women's basketball team has always used the moniker Lady Lions. So that is how I will refer to them tonight.
