Sr., F, Appleton, Wis./West
Butch recorded his third double-double of the season and 10th of his career with 21 points and 11 rebounds in the Badgers' 67-66 win over No. 9 Texas. It was UW's first road win over a top-10 team since defeating No. 4 Ohio State on Jan. 26, 1980. The Appleton, Wis., native scored 10 of Wisconsin's final 17 points, over the last eight minutes of the game. He made 9-of-17 shots and added three assists. Six of Butch's 11 rebounds were on the offensive end. This is the first weeky accolade of his career.
