MADISON, Wis. – The top-ranked Wisconsin women's hockey team looks to break its own NCAA women's hockey single-game attendance record on Saturday as the Badgers host their "Fill the Bowl" game at the Kohl Center.
Wisconsin meets St. Cloud State in the fifth edition of "Fill the Bowl" which starts at 4 p.m. The two teams met in the first-ever event on Jan. 26, 2008 when 5,377 fans came out to watch UW blank SCSU, 4-0.
The Badgers set the NCAA women's hockey single-game attendance record at the last "Fill the Bowl" game on Feb. 15, 2014 as 13,573 fans pack the Kohl Center to watch then-No. 2 Wisconsin take on No. 1 Minnesota.
