MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.- Wisconsin claimed a Big Ten road win against Minnesota on Wednesday night. The road win snapped a four-game losing streak for the Badgers.
The Badgers finished the game 72-62 after trailing by three at halftime. The team outscored the Gophers 19-8 in the third quarter, ending on a 12-2 run to give themselves an edge. Wisconsin also out-rebounded the Gophers 41-36 and went 10-13 from the free-throw line while the Gophers only had four attempts.
Leading the team was Imani Lewis, who tied her career-high score of 23 points. She also grabbed 16 rebounds, 10 of which were offensive, to secure a double-double. She is now tied for ninth all-time at Wisconsin and leads the Big Ten with nine season double-doubles. She is also tied for tenth with 14 career double-doubles. This is her ninth game in a row scoring in double-digits, third this season scoring over 20 points.
