No. 8 Ohio State women records a program record in a victory over Wisconsin
After two close road matchups in which Ohio State allowed two unranked Big Ten opponents to hang around until late in the game, the Buckeyes made sure to shut down that trend Thursday at Value City Arena.
Holding a five-point lead going into halftime against Wisconsin, Ohio State put up 39 points in the third quarter, compared to the Badgers’ 11. This effort tied the OSU program record for most points in a quarter, previously set in November 2021, and helped secure the 87-49 victory.
“We came out at halftime, I thought we really moved the ball, made the extra pass,” Buckeyes’ coach Kevin McGuff said. “And it led to a lot of really open shots.”
Other than Taiyier Parks, every Buckeye who entered the game scored. Further proof this was a collective effort came in Ohio State’s 24 assists.
Cotie McMahon opened up the matchup for Ohio State with the team’s first five points, building on the strong performances the sophomore has been putting together since her career game against Iowa on Jan. 21. McMahon finished with a double-double, 15 points and 10 rebounds.
The first quarter was tit for tat with each team having an answer for the other on multiple occasions, whether in the form of a made layup or a forced turnover, and the Badgers held a 16-15 advantage after the first 10 minutes of play.
Wisconsin’s six offensive boards over that span helped lead to nine second chance points. Meanwhile, Ohio State recorded six rebounds overall in that time period. During halftime, McGuff made his thoughts on the team’s play clear.
“He just said firstly, get ourselves together because we were not playing to our capabilities,” OSU guard Madison Greene said. “But I feel like what he said, motivated us to play better.”
The Buckeyes’ biggest challenge was containing Wisconsin’s 6-foot-4 forward Serah Williams in the post. McGuff tried several different match ups, particularly relying on forwards Rebeka Mikulasikova, Eboni Walker and Parks.
Williams recorded 12 points and eight rebounds in the first half but was limited to four points and three rebounds the remained of the night.
In the second quarter, the Buckeyes started to find more success on the boards, outrebounding the Badgers 11-9. McMahon grabbed multiple rebounds in key moments to put an end to the back-and-forth nature of the game and help Ohio State pull ahead 31-26 before halftime.
“She’s really locked in on rebounding right now,” McGuff said in regard to McMahon. “Her effort on the boards, it’s terrific… We need that because sometimes that can be an issue for us.”
After being fairly limited in minutes following a solid outing against Northwestern at the beginning of January, Walker provided a bit of a spark late the half, scoring four of the Buckeyes’ six points in the final three minutes.
With Ohio State’s signature press starting to click in the second half, monument started to build on the defensive end and carried over on the offensive side of the ball.
Jacy Sheldon scored 11 of her 17 points in the third quarter, and the Buckeyes forced the Badgers to commit 12 turnovers in that stretch, which is more than the number of points they scored. Wisconsin had 27 giveaways in the game. Ohio State limited their total to 8.
“Our press is our identity,” Walker said. “So, I feel like when we start getting those steals and we get a steal and an ‘and-one’ and Jacy dives on the ground and we get another ‘and-one.’ It’s just little things like that we love for each other.”
Ohio State shot 16 for 24 from field goal range during the third quarter while holding Wisconsin to eight field goal attempts.
Ohio State’s next game pits the No. 8 Buckeyes against the visiting Indiana Hoosiers, who are ranked No. 10 nationally, at noon on Sunday.

Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office
FOND DU LAC COUNTY, Wis. – Two people from Illinois were arrested following a police chase that started in Fond du Lac County and ended in Winnebago County on Friday, May 8.
Initial traffic stop
What we know:
According to the Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office, just after 1 p.m. the sheriff’s office got an alert for a stolen vehicle out of Illinois heading northbound on I-41 from County Road Y.
It was learned that the vehicle was involved in two different police chases in the past week in Illinois, but had eluded officers each time.

A short time later, a deputy spotted the vehicle on I-41 near Winnebago Street. The deputy continued to follow the suspect vehicle northbound, waiting for more deputies to get into position to attempt a high-risk traffic stop. Once those deputies were in position, a high-risk traffic stop was conducted. The vehicle initially pulled over and stopped, but right after deputies got out of their squad cars and started telling the people to get out of the vehicle, it instead fled northbound on I-41.
Chase into Winnebago County
What we know:
The chase went into Winnebago County, with the vehicle failing to pullover and instead speeding up. As the chase continued, the vehicle continued driving recklessly, passing by other vehicles on the interstate, including passing on the shoulder and weaving between vehicles, all at a high rate of speed.
The vehicle exited I-41 and ran three red lights. The chase continued southbound on State Highway 26, with the vehicle continuing to pass vehicles at a high rate of speed on the two-lane highway.
The vehicle then went off the road and drove through the yard of a home before circling around in the yard, traveling through the ditch, and reentering the highway going northbound. It then went into a field near County Road Z and Clay Road.
As a sergeant with the sheriff’s office was moving in to perform a Pursuit Intervention Technique (PIT Maneuver), the suspect vehicle went into reverse and rammed the front of the squad. The vehicle then attempted to leave the field by traveling through a ditch and back up onto the road, where another sheriff’s squad ended the chase by intentionally striking the vehicle and pushing it off the road and back into the ditch.
The vehicle rolled over in the ditch, came to rest upright, but was then disabled and could not move. Two people got out of the vehicle and were taken into custody. The vehicle started on fire and a fire department had to respond to extinguish the fire. Both people from the vehicle were evaluated by medical personnel on scene.

Stepmom from hell accused of starving 35-pound teen daughter enters plea — could spend the rest of her life behind bars
The Wisconsin stepmother from hell accused of abusing her 35-pound 14-year-old daughter by depriving her of food and water has entered a no-contest plea in the twisted case.
Melissa Goodman, 52, now faces up to 46 years in prison if she’s handed the maximum sentence for charges of chronic neglect causing great bodily harm, chronic neglect causing emotional damage and false imprisonment.
She’s set to be sentenced on July 1.
Goodman, along with husband Walter Goodman, has been accused of starving her autistic stepdaughter.
Goodman’s daughter Savanna Goodman and her girlfriend Kayla Stemler were also charged over the alleged abuse, People reported.
The family is accused of locking the teen in a bedroom without a mattress, restricting her to only her room for years and depriving her of food and water, according to Wisconsin prosecutors.
The mobile home they lived in became a house of horrors for the teenager, who was mistaken for a 6-year-old when she was found by cops in August 2025 and rushed to the hospital.
Walter Goodman, the victim’s father, called 911 to report that his daughter was lethargic and ill.
Responding officers found her weighing just 35 pounds; she was hospitalized with multi-organ dysfunction, including respiratory failure and pancreatitis.
From 2020 until August 2025, the victim, whose name is not disclosed because she is a minor, was allegedly isolated in a trailer on Hattie Lane, in Oneida, Wisconsin.
Extended family members were told she was away on vacation or with other relatives to explain her absence.
