f you're on Twitter, you may have noticed a mas-
sive amount of tweets being sent out from the Badgers asking different celebrities and sports personalities to help promote Saturday's Fill the Bowl game. At first glance, the objec-

support #FillTheBowl UW attempts to break NCAA record Saturday
It is more than that, though, as the team is attempting to break its own NCAA single- game attendance record, set last year at 10,668. Already boasting the best attendance figures in the na- tion, the team is asking all Badgers fans to come out Sat- urday night and help "Fill the Bowl."
Big games against the Beavers » Prior to last year's record-breaking attendance at the Kohl Center, the NCAA mark was the 8,263 fans that attended the women's game during the Culver's Camp Randall Hockey Classic, which also happened to be against Saturday's opponent, Bemi- dji State. Carolyne Prévost recorded a hat trick in that game, a feat Hil- ary Knight matched earlier this year against the Beavers to set the Bad- gers' record for career points.
Conference shakedown » The Badgers remain in first place in the WCHA with 51 points, holding a six-point lead on second-place Min- nesota and a 15-point cushion on third-place North Dakota. Only 10 points separate third through sixth place in the standings. There are still eight games remaining in the regular season, meaning each team could earn as many as 24 points be- fore the season ends.
