On the result
"It was a super hard fought contest with eight lead changes and six ties. The guys just really went at it hammer and tongs. Credit AUM on how hard they attack the boards. Beril [Kabamba] and Bo [Barber] having early foul trouble made us have to make some alignment changes and our guys really battled. We turn our focus now to this weekend's conference games."
Up Next
The Badgers will open conference play at home against Albany State on Saturday.
