Badgers opened 2ndH with 13-2 run (Happ 7, Showalter 3, Koenig 3). Got ball inside which opened perimeter. Also shut down PennSt transition

Freshman D'Mitrik Trice struggled from field but found other ways to contribute. Was 5 of 5 at line. Had 4 assists/0 turnovers (16 minutes)

PSU broke out 2-3 zone & UW attacked moving ball from Illikainen to Koenig to Hill to Hayes to Happ for backdoor layup. Textbook execution
