Wisconsin earns 76-66 win over Western Michigan

MADISON, Wis. — Steven Crowl scored a career-high 25 points to lead No. 15 Wisconsin to a 76-66 win over Western Michigan at the Kohl Center on Friday night.

Crowl and the Badgers (10-2, 2-0 Big Ten) resumed play after a 15-day break, which was prolonged due to the cancelation of a home game previously scheduled Dec. 23 against Grambling State.

Chucky Hepburn scored 11 points, hitting three of his four 3-point shots, while Tyler Wahl rounded out double-figure scorers for UW with 10 points. Jordan Davis added nine points, while Connor Essegian finished with eight points and Max Klesmit had seven points.

UW shot 51.9 percent (28-for-54) from the floor, including 44.4 percent (12-for-27) from beyond the arc.

Up next, Wisconsin resumes Big Ten play hosting Minnesota at the Kohl Center on January 3.
