MADISON, Wis. — After canceling two games due to a COVID-19 outbreak on the team, the Badgers (3-9, 0-2 B1G) return to action after a nearly three-week break.

Wisconsin faces its second ranked team of the season as No. 6/6 Indiana (11-2, 3-0 B1G) comes to town on Wednesday. Tip time is 6:30 p.m. from the Kohl Center, streamed live on B1G+.

1. POWER AT THE POINT: In Wisconsin's last time out against Illinois State, junior Sydney Hilliard and senior Katie Nelson finished with 17 points apiece. Both Badgers shot 71 percent from the field and Nelson went 5-6 (80%) from 3-point range while putting up five assists en route to leading Wisconsin to a 70-60 win over the Red Birds. The 17 points for Nelson marked a season high for the grad transfer as she also dished out a game high five assists on the night.

2. DAZZLING DOUGLASS: After missing the first two games of the season with an injury, sophomore guard Halle Douglass has seen her name called more and more as the season goes on. Against Illinois State on Dec. 16, Douglass put up six new career highs with 12 points, shooting 5-7 from the field and 2-4 from 3-point range. She also added a career-high nine rebounds while playing 36 minutes.

3: SHOOTING FOR THE STARS: Wisconsin has upped its shooting over the last three games, hitting 47.5% (75-158) from the field, including 44.3% (27-61) from 3-point range. The Badgers have also made 10 3-pointers in each of the last two contests. Junior Sydney Hilliard leads the charge, shooting 66.7% (14-21) from the field while Katie Nelson is shooting 57.1% (8-14) from the field, including 66.7% (6-9) from behind the arc. Halle Douglass also shoots 50% (5-10) from field goal range.

4. BATTLING BROOKE: Sophomore Brooke Schramek has scored in double figures in three out of the last four games, averaging 12.0 points per game over the stretch. The guard scored a career-high 18 points at Northwestern on Dec. 5. Schramek is shooting 50% (17-34) from the field and 68.9% (11-16) from the free-throw line over the last four games. She also adds 4.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game.  

5. BACK TO ACTION: It will be a total of 20 days since the Badgers last took the court when tip-off takes place Wednesday night in the Kohl Center. Wisconsin had two games canceled due to COVID-19 protocols on the team as well as an extended break due to final exams and the holidays. Head Coach Marisa Moseley is hoping the break from basketball provided good physical rest for her players as well as the time to mentality prepare for the latter half of the season as Wisconsin jumps back into Big Ten play for the remainder of the year.
