MADISON, Wis. -  The Badgers will host Maryland on March 28 at 4 p.m. and Rutgers on March 30 at 11 a.m. at Nielsen Tennis Stadium.

BADGERS IN THE RANKINGS: Wisconsin is ranked No. 18 in the ITA team rankings this week after securing a pair of conference wins. The Badgers have won 11 straight matches and are among the hottest teams in the country.

Individually, Maria Sholokhova is ranked No. 5 in singles, while Taylor Cataldi holds the No. 76 spot. In doubles, Cataldi and teammate Ellison Reynoldson form the No. 42-ranked duo in the nation. Additionally, the veteran pair of Maria Sholokhova and Ariel Johnson re-enter the rankings this week at No. 85.

SCOUTING THE TERRAPINS: Maryland is 10-8 overall and 3-3 in Big Ten play. Kallisa Liu leads the team with a 10-3 record at No. 1 singles. In doubles, the pairing of Diya Challa and Danielle Hack has been a dominant force for the Terrapins, posting an 8-3 record.

SCOUTING THE SCARLET KNIGHTS: Rutgers will head to Minnesota before traveling to the Badger State. The Scarlet Knights hold a 7-7 record and are 1-5 in conference play. Leading the team is Zuzanna Frankowska, who is 16-8 overall.

LAST TIME OUT: The Badgers had a intense weekend against Big Ten opponents Nebraska and Iowa, winning both matches 4-3.

Also against Iowa, the team matched its program record of consecutive wins with 11, a mark originally set in 1996 and matched in 2024.
