Badgers fall to Florida in NCAA Tournament as season finishes

By Cal Larsen | Nov. 21, 2016

While the Wisconsin women’s soccer team (5-2-4 Big Ten, 9-5-8 overall) didn’t wind up with the result it was hoping for against the No. 9-seed Florida Gators (8-3-0 SEC, 17-5-1 overall), the Badgers will come back to Madison with nothing to hang their heads about. After receiving an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament, taking care of Marquette at home in the first round and ultimately getting eliminated by the Florida Gators, Wisconsin’s season is officially over. The Badgers took Florida into double overtime before the Gators put the game away on a goal in the 106th minute, courtesy of senior forward Brooke Sharp.

Lavelle leads Badgers to upset win in NCAA Tournament

By Kelly Ward | Nov. 11, 2016

Rose Lavelle proved to everyone at the McClimon Complex why she is the No.1 player in the country, as she led Wisconsin (9-8-4) to a 1-0 victory over Marquette (12-2-8) in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Lavelle scored the lone goal in the 30th minute for the Badgers with a bomb off the edge of the 18-yard box that beat Marquette goaltender Maddy Henry at the far post.

Badgers to host in-state rival Marquette in first round of NCAA tournament

By Cal Larsen | Nov. 11, 2016

A year ago, Wisconsin was surprisingly left out of the NCAA tournament. They would not experience that same disappointment this year, receiving an at-large bid in the NCAA tournament. Not only did the Badgers (5-2-4 Big Ten, 8-4-8 overall) get a spot in the tournament, but they also will be hosting. And not only will the Badgers be hosting the game, they also will be hosting in-state rival Marquette University (7-2-0 Big East, 12-7-2 overall), whom they took down 2-0 the one time the teams matched up earlier this season.

Badgers rally in finale behind flurry from Lavelle

By Jonathan Mills | Oct. 27, 2016

Resilience paid dividends for the Wisconsin women’s soccer team (5-2-4 Big Ten, 8-4-7 overall) . On a cold fan appreciation night, the Badgers beat Rutgers (4-2-5, 9-3-6) 2-1 and secured the No. 5 seed heading into the Big 10 Tournament. The Badgers extended their unbeaten streak to seven matches with this victory at the McClimon Complex, remaining unbeaten against Rutgers and snapping the Scarlet Knights’ six-game winning streak. Corner kicks were frequent in the game; the Badgers took 12 corners, but failed to capitalize early in the game when they advanced into Rutgers’ attacking third.

Badgers continue unbeaten streak, drop Spartans in East Lansing

By Cal Larsen | Oct. 16, 2016

It was a quick victory Sunday afternoon for Wisconsin (4-2-3 Big Ten, 7-4-6 overall) against the Spartans of Michigan State (2-7-0, 5-10-1). Of course, the game itself wasn’t especially quick—it lasted the usual 90 minutes—but quick in the sense that senior midfielder Michaela Powers scored the first and only goal of the match in the first minute of play. The goal was assisted by sophomore forward Emily Borgmann just 22 seconds into the match. As a whole, the Badgers outshot Michigan State 10-9.

Clem, Badgers hoping to stifle Spartans in East Lansing

By Cal Larsen | Oct. 15, 2016

After battling a strong Nebraska team at home, a game that in a 1-1 tie after two overtimes, gaining a victory against Iowa and another draw with Michigan, the Wisconsin Badgers (3-2-3 Big Ten, 6-4-6 overall) are ready to head to East Lansing to add one more victory to their résumé against a weak Michigan State Spartans team (2-6-0, 5-9-1). Wisconsin hopes to keep up the defensive intensity it’s had going in those past three games.

Badgers test momentum at Michigan

By Kelly Ward | Oct. 13, 2016

Thursday night, the Wisconsin Badgers (3-2-2 Big Ten, 6-4-5 overall), coming off a dominant win against Iowa, will travel to Ann Arbor, Mich., to take on No. 25 Michigan (5-2-0, 9-3-1), which has yet to lose at home this season. On Sunday, the Badgers put all the pieces together defensively and shut down a Hawkeyes team that never got the chance to produce much offense.

Badgers welcome Toelle, Hawkeyes to McClimon Complex for senior night

By Kelly Ward | Oct. 8, 2016

After starting the weekend with a 1-1 tie against Nebraska, the Wisconsin Badgers (2-2-2 Big Ten, 5-4-5 overall) continue their homestand with a game against Iowa (1-5-0, 7-7-0) Sunday afternoon. Iowa, which has struggled mightily in Big Ten play, is coming off a tough 3-0 loss to Minnesota on the road Thursday night, where the shot-happy Gophers proved way too much for Hawkeye freshman netminder Claire Graves to handle. With UW’s offensive dominance thus far this season, Graves will be in for another tough test when her Hawkeyes come to McClimon Soccer Complex: The Badgers have outshot their opponents 218-122 and have outscored them 16-13 overall. Leading the Badgers in scoring are senior midfielders Micaela Powers and Rose Lavelle.

Badgers battle back to tie Cornhuskers late Thursday night

By Cal Larsen | Oct. 6, 2016

There was no lack of excitement in Thursday night’s thriller between the Wisconsin Badgers (2-2-2 Big Ten, 5-4-5 overall) and the Nebraska Cornhuskers (3-2-1, 9-4-1), which ultimately ended in a 1-1 tie after two overtime periods. The game went back and forth from the first whistle up until Nebraska found the back of the net thanks to a corner from junior midfielder Haley Hanson, which was put away by senior midfielder Sydney Miramontez. After that first goal, the game managed to stay 1-0 in Nebraska’s favor until sophomore Dani Rhodes took matters into her own hands.

Pair of conference matchups at home gives Badgers chance to climb in the standings

By Jacob Hams | Sep. 23, 2015

After a tough start to their Big Ten schedule last weekend, the Badgers (0-1-1 Big Ten, 3-4-3 overall) will look to get their first conference win of the year. They will take on both Indiana (0-0-2, 3-3-4) and Purdue (1-1-0, 6-3-0) this week- end. In order for Wisconsin to get a win against one of its conference foes, it will need to start putting the ball into the back of the net and establish more offensive consistency.
