The program announced Monday it will begin a home-and-home series with Marquette for non-conference matchups this year and next year.
A rivalry renewed.

This November, the Badgers will head to Milwaukee for the first matchup, and then the Golden Eagles will play at the Kohl Center in 2026.
The two teams last played in 2017 when Marquette hosted and won 88-65, but Wisconsin leads the all-time series 13-10.
The Golden Eagles are coming off of a 21-11 season that resulted in a first-round exit in the Big East tournament.
It will be a key non-conference game for Pingeton's first season at the helm as she tries to re-establish her program's footing in the state.
