Sophomore Cara Walls is ninth in the Big Ten in goals (10) during conference matches and 10th in the Big Ten in points (21). breaking down the walls After a mediocre start to the 2012 season, sophomore forward Cara Walls has broken out of her shell and is leading the Badgers in their historic run this season. Over the last five matches, Walls has tallied five goals and is leading the team in that category with 10, eclipsing her teamhigh nine-goal freshman campaign. The Wauwatosa, Wis., native has accumulated a team-high 21 points this season, including 16 in Big Ten contests. 10 is the magic number For the fourth-consecutive season the Badgers have eclipsed the 10-win plateau. Following UW s 2-1 double-overtime win over Illinois on Sunday, Oct. 14, the Badgers matched their win total from 2011 and are approaching their first 13-win season since Wisconsin has now tallied 10 or more wins in seven of the last 10 seasons, making an appearance in the NCAA Tournament during five of those 10 double-digit winning slates Silence of the lam-feist Senior Monica Lam-Feist has been one of Wisconsin s go-to players this season.

This season, the senior is leading the Badgers in shots (54) and is second in goals (6). Mcclimon the walls The Badgers have had one of the most successful home campaigns in recent memory. Much of the success has been a result of the solid play of sophomore Cara Walls. The Wauwatosa, Wis., native bypassed the potential slump that plague most sophomores who dominate their first collegiate season and is matching her strong numbers from In all six home matches that Walls has tallied a point in, UW is Walls played the role of savior during the Badgers last two matches, notching game-winning goals against both Northwestern and Illinois. The sophomore is currently tied for third in the Big Ten in game-winning goals (2) and now leads her team in points (17) and goals (8), after tallying 19 points and nine goals in goal-oriented The Badgers are tallying goals at a rapid pace this season. After 20 matches, Wisconsin has eclipsed its entire goal total from Behind a trio of four-goal outings and a five-goal performance against South Dakota State, the Badgers have 38 goals to date, 12 more than their total output all of last season. Wisconsin s offensive improvement is largely due to its aggressiveness on the front line. UW is outshooting its opponents and is outscoring foes shooting stars The Badgers hold an record in 2012 when outshooting opponents, with three of those victories coming in shutout fashion. On the contrary, UW is when being outshot in matches during Three of those losses have come to ranked foes, with the other combination of three coming at the hands of Big Ten opponents. early bird gets the worm The Badgers have conceded the contest s first goal in five matches this season, recording a record when doing so.

BY the numbers Paula Wilkins owns a 21-8 NCAA Tournament record, including a 72.4 win percentage. Through 20 matches, the Badgers have recorded six shutouts, with five resulting in victories. In 2011, UW recorded six shutouts the entire season. X X 5 Wisconsin had its season-best fivematch win streak snapped in a 2-1 loss at Iowa on Saturday. 10 The Badgers have eclipsed the 10-win plateau for the fourthconsecutive season and the seventh time in the last 10 years. X X UW is set to appear in the NCAA 3 Tournament for the third time in four years under Paula Wilkins. X X Wisconsin s five-goal barrage against 6 South Dakota State is not out of the norm for the Wilkins bunch. During four of Wilkins six seasons as head coach, which includes the 2012 season following Sunday s shootout, the Badgers have knotted five or more goals in at least one match. Consistent kinley Paula Wilkins freshmen class, led by starting midfielder Kinley McNicoll, has given the Badgers a much-needed boost this season. Wilkins is starting four freshmen and McNicoll, an Ontario native, is emerging as the leader of the talented bunch. Through18 matches, McNicoll is fourth among all Badgers in points (12) and has shown flashes of experience and grit only seen in someone who has redshirted or is nearing the end of their four-year career. The freshman has shown aggressiveness, ranking third on UW in shots (35) but has also displayed her unselfishness, notching only 14 shots on goal and tallying a team-best six assists this season. HOME sweet home Wisconsin s fast start was due in large part to its friendly nonconference schedule, which included three-straight home games to kick off the season for the first time since The Badgers finished their regular season at the McClimon Soccer Complex this season, a feat UW has not accomplished since Party likes it s 1989 For the first time in over two decades, the Badgers defeated the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, knocking off the 2010 NCAA National Champions, 1-0, to open the 2012 season. Wisconsin previously recorded its one and only victory over Notre Dame on Sept. 9, 1989, in South Bend, Ind. Friday, Aug. 17, UW got a late goal from senior Monica Lam-Feist in the 84th minute, securing the win for the Badgers, which was just their second all-time against Notre Dame. In her first start in net since the graduation of All-Big Ten GK Michele Dalton, Lauren Gunderson recorded a career-high seven saves, as Notre Dame outshot Wisconsin 12-8 and earned three more corner kick opportunities than the Badgers. Prior to the Aug. 17 match, the closest the Badgers have come to defeating the Fighting Irish is in 2001, when the teams played to a 2-2 double-ot draw in South Bend. Canadian connection Among all 26 members of the 2012 Wisconsin women s soccer team, five states are represented, with the state of Wisconsin garnering the most players. Five Badgers hail from Canada, including three starters. Senior Monica Lam-Feist (Surrey, British Columbia), juniors Paige Adams (Port Coquitlam, British Columbia) and Genevieve Richard (Saint-Bruno, Quebec), as well as sophomore Kodee Williams (Toronto, Ontario) and freshman Kinley McNicoll (Oakville, Ontario), are all Canadians by birth. The Canadians, excluding Richard who is a GK, have played instrumental roles in the Badgers offensive success this season. After 20 matches, the four have scored a combined 18 goals and recorded 16 assists, tallying 52 of the team s 107 total points.

Anson Dorrance (UNC) Mark Krikorian (Florida St.) Paul Ratcliffe (Stanford) Paula Wilkins (Penn St., UW) head coach PAULA WILKINS Paula Wilkins enters her sixth season with the Wisconsin women s soccer program. In only five seasons, Wilkins has already made giant leaps in rebuilding the program. In 2011, the Badgers made their third-straight appearance in the Big Ten Tournament. Wilkins guided UW to the NCAA Tournament in 2010, the school s best finish in 15 years, after reaching the third round of the NCAA tournament in just her third season with the program. In her second season, UW finished with a record finishing the season at.500, and narrowly missed a berth into the Big Ten Tournament. In her first season Wilkins led the Badgers to a record, marking a three-game improvement overall and a one-game improvement in the Big Ten from 2007 to Following the conclusion of her first season Wilkins scored one of the top recruiting classes for 2008, ranking 21st in the nation and marking the highest ranking in UW history. In her first recruiting class, two were named to the 2008 Big Ten All- Freshman Team, Laurie Nosbusch and Erin Jacobsen. Wilkins has compiled a remarkable (.732) record in her 10 seasons as a head coach. Prior to her start at Wisconsin, Wilkins was the head coach at Penn State for six years. The Nittany Lions earned six NCAA tournament berths, which included two College Cup appearances during her tenure. In addition, Penn State won the last six Big Ten regular season championships, along with a pair of Big Ten tournament titles. Penn State dominated Big Ten women s soccer for most of the 13 seasons of the school s sponsorship of the sport and Wilkins was part of the coaching staff the entire time. She joined the Nittany Lions as an assistant coach when the program debuted as a varsity sport in 1994 and served in that role until she was named head coach at the end of the 2000 campaign.
