ith only 12 players on its roster, the women's basketball team has had to rely on its bench for some needed breaks. All 12 players have partici- pated in at least three games. Freshman Jacki Gulczynski has played in the fewest games but she was unable to compete earlier this season due to a leg
W 46 » VARSITY DECEMBER 1, 2011 injury. The Badger bench is pro-
viding nearly 15 points per game led by sophomore Cassie Rochel, who contributes 6.0 points per game. Freshman Lindsay Smith has stepped up her play over the last three games, averaging 3.0 points per game, mostly from 3-point range.
All-tournament for Wurtz » Junior Taylor Wurtz picked up her first all-tournament honor at the Colorado Omni Classic, averaging 19.5 points, 8.0 rebounds and 3.0 steals per game in the tournament. Wurtz has scored in double fig-
ures in all seven games this season, leading the team with 17.1 points per game.
Welcome home » After playing five of its first seven games on the road, UW now plays six of seven games at home in the Kohl Center. UW took on Boston College in the Big Ten/ACC Chal- lenge on Wednesday before host- ing Saint Louis on Monday. The Badgers opened the season
with seven games in 15 days, mak- ing them one of only five Big Ten teams to have already played sev- en games. UW's schedule changes dramatically, however, as it plays just five games in December.
