B1G Roundup: Wisconsin finds new ways to sweep, running its winning streak to nine
SOUTH BEND, Ind. — As the Wisconsin Badgers keep piling up wins, and Big Ten standings points, perhaps the scariest thing about facing this red menace is you never know who’s going to beat you.
They closed out 2023 with two wins in a Milwaukee holiday tournament via the goaltending of Kyle McClellan and the offense of Simon Tassy. In this weekend’s road sweep of Notre Dame, which extended their winning streak to nine games, the Badgers got different offensive contributions, and a win from McClellan and also from his backup, freshman William Gramme.
After a defense-first 2-1 win over the Irish on Friday night, Wisconsin improved to 18-4-0 overall and 10-2-0 in the conference via a wild festival of offense, winning 7-4 on Saturday. The Badgers got goals from six different players, and now have put together the program’s longest win streak since 1990 — a season that ended with Wisconsin hosting the NCAA title trophy.
On Saturday the Badgers led 5-1 in the second period before Notre Dame (10-10-2, 4-6-2) scored three goals in less than three minutes, prompting Badgers coach Mike Hastings to switch goalies. Wisconsin scored the only two goals in the final period to close out the win.
“The way we started was awful,” Irish coach Jeff Jackson said after his team was handed its fifth straight Big Ten loss. “We got some life in the second period. But give them credit, they made the right call during a timeout to switch goalies and that changed the momentum back away from us.”
Irish goalie Ryan Bischel finished with 26 saves. Notre Dame travels to Ohio State for a conference series next weekend.

First Gadowsky family showdown is a wild one
When it was all over, Penn State coach Guy Gadowsky hugged his son Mac at the end of the handshake line, and breathed a sigh of relief following the biggest comeback in the history of the Nittany Lions’ program.
Penn State (10-7-3 overall) trailed Army West Point by four goals in the second period, but charged back with a quintet of unanswered goals and held on for a 7-6 win. It was the first head-to-head meet between coach Gadowsky and his son, who is a freshman forward for the Black Knights.
Junior Ryan Kirwan and freshman Aiden Fink each scored twice for Penn State, which returns to Big Ten play next weekend, hosting Michigan State for a pair of games. They finished their nonconference slate for the season with a 8-2-0 record and are now an impressive 45-3-1 in nonconference games since the beginning of the 2018-19 season.

Buckeyes complete sweep in the battle of north Ohio
Despite going winless in the Big Ten in the first half of the season, Ohio State coach Steve Rohlik did not make any roster additions to his team at the holiday break. He said that getting forward Joe Dunlap back from an injury would be like having a new player in his lineup.
On Saturday, Dunlap proved his coach correct, scoring the game-winner in a 4-2 win at Bowling Green to complete the sweep in their weekend home-and-home series. The Buckeyes (8-8-4) won 6-2 on Friday in Columbus, paced by a quartet of Stephen Halliday assists.
Ohio State is back in the conference next weekend, hosting Notre Dame for a pair.
Michigan, Michigan State score wins over U-18 Team
After a long layoff, the Wolverines (8-7-3) didn’t look overly rusty, opening up a five-goal lead over USA Hockey’s National U-18 team and cruising to a 5-1 win at USA Hockey Arena in Plymouth, Michigan. That win came one night after Team USA traveled to East Lansing where the Spartans (13-4-3) won 5-2.
Michigan State returns to conference play next weekend with a trip to Penn State. Michigan hosts Stonehill in a nonconference series.

Wisconsin universities and schools impacted by Canvas data breach
WAUSAU, Wis. (WSAW/GRAY NEWS) – A ransomware group has claimed to have breached the learning management system Canvas, possibly exposing the personal information of students, teachers and staff across the country.
According to a statement from the Universities of Wisconsin website, they were notified of a nationwide security breach experienced by Instructure, the provider of Canvas. Universities of Wisconsin schools use the cloud-based management system.
UW-Stevens Point tells NewsChannel 7 they have not confirmed UWSP was involved in the breach, but did send communication that Canvas was down and students should not perform any asked actions if prompted, as it may not be legitimate while Canvas is down.
Instructure, the parent company of Canvas, posted on May 1 about a cybersecurity incident that had been reported and was under investigation.
The next day, Chief Information Security Officer Steve Proud wrote that the information involved in the attack included names, student ID numbers, messages between users and email addresses.
“At this time, we have found no evidence that passwords, dates of birth, government identifiers, or financial information were involved. If that changes, we will notify any impacted institutions,” he wrote.
The Wausau School District sent a letter to parents Wednesday regarding the cybersecurity incident. They said there is no evidence that passwords, single-sign-on credentials, financial information or social security numbers were impacted. They stressed that type of information is not stored in Canvas.

DHS urges Wisconsin ‘sanctuary’ county to keep illegal immigrant accused in elderly sexual assaults jailed
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
The Department of Homeland Security is urging “sanctuary politicians in Wisconsin” not to release a Nicaraguan national who was arrested after being accused of sexually assaulting an elderly victim, according to a statement Wednesday.
Julio Cesar Morales-Jarquin, 31, is in local police custody after being charged with two counts of second-degree sexual assault of an elderly victim, DHS said.
He was arrested last month after a residential care facility in Fitchburg, Wisconsin, reported to police that an employee may have assaulted vulnerable residents, according to local outlet WKOW.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) issued a detainer request on April 27 asking that Morales-Jarquin remain in custody.

DHS on Wednesday called on Dane County officials not to release Morales-Jarquin, accusing the county of being a “sanctuary jurisdiction” that refuses to honor ICE detainers.
The agency said the county has previously given ICE as little as 30 minutes to take custody of individuals in its jail.

According to DHS, Morales-Jarquin entered the United States in 2023 under the Biden administration’s humanitarian parole program for Nicaragua. Although the program was later ended, DHS said he remained in the country unlawfully.
“This illegal alien is charged with two counts of sexual assault of an elderly victim at an assisted living facility,” Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis said in the DHS statement. “This dirtbag was released into the country by the Biden Administration. DHS is calling on sanctuary politicians in Dane County, Wisconsin to NOT release this criminal from jail back onto the streets to commit more crimes.”

“We need Wisconsin sanctuary politicians to cooperate with us to remove criminals from our country,” she added.
