Duluth 2 p.m. Badgers finish 2011 T he Badgers finish off the 2011 portion of the season with a trip to Bemidji State, and the Beavers are enjoying their highest ranking in pro- gram history at No. 7 in the latest poll. After handing losses to Min- nesota, Minnesota Duluth and North Dakota, BSU is proving that it can win on any night. 62 » VARSITY DECEMBER 8, 2011 with a tough road series Trip to Bemidji State up next for Badgers Since BSU moved into the Sanford Center, Wisconsin has been the only team to sweep the Beavers on their home ice, but the Badgers needed overtime to pull it off. UW must maintain fo- cus over the weekend and limit defensive breakdowns if they want to repeat last season's sweep in Bemidji. Another milestone in Bemidji » Last season at Bemidji State, Hil- ary Knight scored her 100th ca- reer goal. As Knight heads back to Bemidji a season later, she is poised to reach another milestone against the Beavers. Knight is just six points away from claiming sole possession of UW's career points record. White hot scoring » The group of Carolyne Prévost, Brianna Decker, Brooke Ammer- man and Hilary Knight have com- bined for a total of 67 goals and 80 assists so far this season. The four account for over half (.621) of the team's point production and have scored almost three-fourths (.720) of the team's goals so far this sea- son. They are the highest scoring group of four in the nation with 147 points.
