Rosalie Tremblay and (partial) fixes to Worlds scheduling

Although none of the Wisconsin Badgers hockey or basketball teams have games that count this weekend, news from national teams, court rulings, and exhibition contests generated plenty of headlines. Listen to this week’s Badger Breakaway podcast breaking down the latest in UW hockey and hoops.

Wisconsin women’s hockey center Rosalie Tremblay celebrated a banner week by returning from Hockey Canada training camp, joined an exclusive list of Badgers rookies, and became one of the youngest players to ever make the Canadian national team.
