Wisconsin Basketball Releases Full Non-Conference Schedule
On Friday, the Wisconsin Athletic Department announced the men’s basketball non-conference schedule for the 2022-23 college basketball season.
Coach Gard and the Badgers, coming off their second Big Ten regular season title in three years, will again need to replace several significant contributors and outperform preseason expectations if they’re going to make some noise.
UW returns Chucky Hepburn, Tyler Wahl, and Steven Crowl, all of whom were starters last season. They’ll also count on contributions from transfer portal additions Max Klesmit and Kamari McGee while also needing internal options like Jahcobi Neath, Jordan Davis, Carter Gilmore, and Markus Ilver to take the next step in their respective developments.
Here is a look at the complete non-conference schedule for the season ahead:
