LUCAS' FIVE TAKES:
Could not have been a better script. Stop the slide. Secure 2 seed. Beat Gophs, a good team; hottest in B10. Send seniors out with home win!

Bronson Koenig got into early foul trouble (played less 5min 1stH) but D'Mitrik Trice helped fill void with floor play, toughness on 50/50s

During pregame senior intro, Vitto Brown broke into big smile when he walked on floor with folks. Long overdue, it foreshadowed Brown's play

The resumption of Defensive intensity/urgency over last 2 games bodes well for postseason. Offensive flow better. Still need to work on FTs

BadgerBall has returned in form of unified team effort sparked by seniors. Players rallied through adversity and still have room to grow
