RECAP: Strong second half powers Wisconsin basketball to win over Iowa
The Wisconsin Badgers’ men’s basketball team (19-8, 11-5 Big Ten) secured an 84-71 victory over the Iowa Hawkeyes on Sunday afternoon at the Kohl Center.
Fueled by 27 points from guard Nick Boyd and 18 points from veteran center Nolan Winter, the Badgers pulled away from the Hawkeyes during the final six minutes of action. Greg Gard’s group maintained a slight edge throughout the contest. The two teams traded punches for virtually the entire contest until Boyd, Austin Rapp and John Blackwell commandeered a 16-6 scoring surge to close the bout.

In addition to his 27 tallies, Boyd added nine boards and 10 assists in a near-triple-double effort. The San Diego State transfer set the tone with 15 points in the opening stretch, but the Hawkeyes shot 56% from the floor and 45.5% from beyond the arc to establish a 41-40 edge by intermission.
The two groups stayed within striking distance for the first 14 minutes of the second frame, when bench wing Austin Rapp nailed a 3-point field goal to stretch the Badgers’ lead to six, 71-65. His strike ignited Wisconsin’s closing scoring run, a period in which Blackwell registered eight made free throws.
The program veteran scored all 13 of his points during the second half to compliment Winter and Boyd’s outputs. Rapp finished with 14 tallies off a 5-of-7 mark from the field, including a 4-of-5 split from 3.

Spring has come to Wisconsin – and the weather is finally starting to show it
Wisconsin warms up as spring officially arrives
It’s finally feeling like spring in southeastern Wisconsin as temperatures rise and snow begins to melt.
It’s officially spring, as of Friday, March 20 – at least according to astronomical seasons. And the weather in southeastern Wisconsin seems to be getting on the same page.
Temperatures in the Milwaukee area March 20 are expected to be in the mid-50s, with the potential to reach 60 degrees. On Saturday, March 21, temperatures will likely rise to the low to mid-60s, said Aidan Kuroski, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Milwaukee/Sullivan.
Kuroski said if the conditions are right, it’s possible March 21 may get even warmer.
“I’m not going to competely rule out 70 – although I think it’s unlikely,” he said.
For many Wisconsinites, the spring-like temperatures are a welcome change after the previous weekend’s blizzard that brought more than two feet of snow to parts of the state.
Over the weekend, any lingering snow in southeastern Wisconsin is likely to fully melt, Kuroski said.
Temperatures will get a little cooler Sunday, March 22, in the mid 40s and low 50s, and by Monday, March 23 likely in the low 40s – primarily due to onshore winds from Lake Michigan, Kuroski said. But it should warm slightly again by Tuesday, March 24.
“During these warm spells, the wind direction – especially for Milwaukee, anywhere close to the lake – the wind direction is massive for what we’re capable of reaching for high temperatures,” Kuroski said.
Easterly winds, he said, will bring in cool air from Lake Michigan, while winds coming from the south or west will bring warmer temps.
The weather should stay mostly dry as well, with a slight possibility for some rain Sunday, March 22, and potentially a round of rain in the middle of the following week, Kuroski said.
