Walk-on Wquinton Smith enters his junior season after making the team in an unlikely way as a freshman. Smith earned a roster spot after going through an open tryout process in 2007. He has suited up for all home games over the last two years, appearing in 18. One of the strongest members of the team, Smith set new Wisconsin basketball records for the guard position in both the bench press and back squat this past summer.
