Rigsby claims another record » In a record book dominated by Jessie Vetter, Alex Rigsby is quick- ly making a name for herself. Against Minnesota State last weekend, Rigsby made 41 saves, enough to break UW's single-sea- son record for most saves in a sea- son.

wins would allow UW to claim sole possession of the title. A loss by Minnesota and a win by Wisconsin on Friday, would also give UW a share of the title. A Minnesota loss with two Wisconsin wins on the week- end would give the Badgers outright ownership of the league championship.
The previous record of 801 was
set by Vetter in the 2008-09 sea- son. Rigsby has 805 saves so far, with multiple games left to play.
Ammerman approaching 200 » Senior Brooke Ammerman needs just four points to become the fourth Badger in program history to record 200 career points. Earlier in the season, Ammem-
eran tallied her 100th career assist. She currently holds the No. 4 spot on the all-time scoring list at UW, trailing only Hilary Knight, Meghan Duggan and Sara Bauer.
