Acceptance of Dishes from the winning of # 21 in Wisconsin in Iowa Hokis – Badgerblitz

Iowa City, Iowa – The University of Wisconsin has a crime built to success with three -point shooters, players wishing to attack the paint, and a rotation confident in foul shooting. If the badgers can repeat what they have done defensive in the last section of the season, Wisconsin will

In the afternoon, when the open shots did not fall, No. 21 Wisconsin gave one of his better defensive efforts during the season with a 74-63 victory over Iowa in Carver-Hauki Arena.

Against the team with the highest rating in the conference and the top five nationwide violations, Badgers (19-5, 9-4 Big Ten) detained Hawki to 36.1 percent shooting and low seasons 63 points. Only the second time in the last 10 seasons Iowa (13-10, 4-8) took place next to these few points at home.

“It just shows how good and talented this team can be.” John Blackwell He said. “We did a great job, the guards and the big ones from closed our water, to pick up the players who inserted the line. They are a great scoring team … But the credit of our coaches. We kept it according to the plan and we were fulfilled. ”

With John Tone By scoring 14 of its highest 22 points in the second half, and Blackwell chipping in 19 years, Badgers remained within two matches in the first place Purdue in the ranking of the conference with seven matches left in the regular season, making next Saturday in the match In Maki Arena, an atmosphere similar to the championship.

Here are my Wisconsin’s fourth winning Big Ten Road victory.

Blacuel’s bowel reaction was that the final 7:30 of the second half was one of the better Wisconsin’s protective sections of the season, the possessions that Badgers turned a play back and forth in increasing momentum of confidence.

“Take the murder here and thread a few stops together and this game will end,” Blackwel said.

Iowa’s Payton Sandfort and Drew Theewell Trive gave a 59-58 lead for 5-0. Tonje began to erase Iow’s confidence with points of three straight trips, two possessions that ended with two free throws after making a foul on the rim drives and another three index finger.

Tonje went 5-to-11 from the floor and 3-9 out of three, but made more free throws (nine) than Hawkis (seven).

“They pressed up and we were in the bonus,” Tone said. “I just took advantage of driving it right on their shoulders to get the calls.”

“He is one of the best players I’ve been playing with throughout my career,” added Tonje Blacuel. “He finds an assessment skill. His shot does not fall, he finds a way to go bankrupt or reach the rim. He is just a modest dude. “

While Tonje took advantage of how Iowa kept it, UW locked the rim and challenged the shooters around the perimeter. Hawkis missed both of the jumper attempts, all three trials of three points, went 1-for-4 in the paint and made two turnover in the final 7:35.

The only goal in Iowa’s field was the Pryce Sandfort arrangement with 4:39, as Hawkis scored only four points above the closing section.

Iowa had to lean on his starting guards, without the lead operator Owen Freeman, Wisconsin held Josh Dix (5-for-12, 13 points) and Peyton Sandfort (2-11, 7 points) in a check. The duo is combined for 50 points in the loss on Tuesday against Partyu.

“This shows how much they buy,” Gard said to the defense. “They are getting better … We were quite well attached to the shooters and managed to cover each other when there was a collapse. We had four or five ready to learn the offensive player who fell apart. “

Iowa players were suffocated to Chambers McGiUW’s comments scored 116 points to Hokis last month when Wisconsin’s security said Hawkis was only trying to exceed them and was not interested in the protective end.

The difference between Iow’s defense was night and day. Badgers went 14-30 (46.7 percent) in the first half, but gave up two based on their inability to clean the offensive glass and take care of the ball. Iowa tried six more shots as Badgers made six turnover and gave up five offensive struggles, exceeding UW in combination 16-6 in these two departments.

With freeman (finger surgery) inaccessible, Hawkis put 6-11 junior Riley Mulvi Steven Crole To start the game and send a 6-7 sophomore, Seidu Trare to the double when the ball enters the post.

The only Crowl turnover in passing pass led to a second chance, but other couples led to the abandonment of possessions and almost the turnover. Iowa’s ability to force the drivers of the lane to the main line, not to the rim created other speeds of dead balls.

Hawkis entered the 17th weekend at the conference in fights (32.0) and last in rebound (-5.5), but also took advantage of the long bounces to hold an edge of 9-2 in points in the second chance in the first half.

“We’re just taking time and we’re available for each other,” Blacwell told the message among the players. “Things will open us for us.”

The challenge of Guard was to play aggressively and confidently to take the ball to the court and break the press. Wisconsin had only three turnover in 30 possessions of the second half and was not lost in defense. Iowa had six offensive struggles in the second half, but managed to remain one point of the second chance, leaving 11:56.

“When we gave up on them, we did a good job, attaching ourselves and staying with shooters around the perimeter,” Gard said. “We did not migrate to the ball and they could not find shooters immediately. We did a good job after the Intelligence Report. “

Crul and Nolan winter I went combined 4-15 from the floor, but both players contributed in other ways. By recording 11 of its 15 struggles in the second half, Crowl added three career thefts, performed two assists and extended its block-series to nine straight matches. Crowl was also solid in the defense of the screen. Winter added seven rebounds, including three offensive boards.

As Iowa constantly doubled the post, the badgers were able to insert the movement of the ball into the corners to tear down open triplets and change speed, for example, when Crole hit McGi for the angle three that gave the last 10 minutes.

“He sometimes got involved in the guards and did not allow them to lock and shoot threesomes above him,” Gard Crowl said. “I thought he was really good at defense glass. Playing through it as well. Despite

Blackwell’s performance in the second half put the table for Wisconsin’s return. The sophomor struck a second chance to tie the score at 51 and get a friendly bounce from the rim for the angular triphone. This shot lifted the Yazovs 57-51.

After being littered with unpleasant problems in the road matches in Maryland and the Northwest and only 3 for 12 on the floor at Tuesday over Indiana, Blacwell returned to its dominant form with 19 points (3 for 7 3 FG), two rebounds, two Assists and theft.

“He was aggressive for the jump,” Tonzhe told Blackwell. “Today he was a vocal leader. He was huge down and much of the victory … He competes every day. He is the person we absolutely need for our success. Today it was a testimony to this. “

0-9- Iowa’s record in Quad-1 games this season.

2 – Wisconsin held Iowa until a season with low 63 points and only 38.1 percent shooting as a whole. Saturday scored exactly the second time Iowa was held up to 63 points or less at home since February 2016 (Illinois kept them at 61 to 3/10/24).

7 – Wisconsin improved to 7-4 from home, including 4-4 ​​in real road games. UW was 8-11 in similar games last year. Entering Saturday, Oregon (8) was the only Big Ten team with more than seven wins away from home.
