2–1
A top-two test on the ice.
No. 1 Wisconsin women’s hockey lost 2–1 at No. 2 Ohio State on October 9. The Badgers led after two periods before two third-period goals changed the result.
This was Wisconsin’s first loss of the season. Our take: the WCHA race is already worth following. This is an October 9 final, not a live score.

6–1
A small town. A big turnaround.
As of the Packers’ October 8 report, Webster’s Tigers were 6–1, their best start since 2013. Scott Haskins’ Coach of the Week award includes $1,000 for the football program.
Our take: the people behind a local team deserve a story, too.
