HISTORY WITH THE BADGERS
Wisconsin has won the last six meetings with Indiana, taking a 30-24 edge in the all-time series.

PIN KING - Taylor Walsh
• Has already set the all-time IU record with 23 pins (previous record: 19 by Rod Chambelin in 1981)
• 23 pins lead the nation
• Ranks 2nd in school history with 44 career falls (47, Viktor Sveda; 1998-2002)
• Pinned at least four foes in all four tournaments
• Recorded a 15-bout consecutive pinning streak

B1G WINS TOTAL
Hoosiers Ryan LeBlanc and Taylor Walsh share the top spot in the Big Ten for overall wins with 28 victories this season. That total is tied for fourth nationally with Taylor's brother, Chad Walsh of Rider University.

FRIENDLY CONFINES OF U-GYM
• IU is 7-2 in home dual matches
• IU's 46-0 blanking of VMI is its first D-I shutout since besting Clarion 49-0 on Jan. 18, 2009
• IU's 52-0 win over Manchester is its largest margin of victory since topping Manchester 58-0 during the 2008-09 season
• Walsh and Chalfant have yet to lose at home this season

NATIONALLY-RANKED HOOSIERS
Five Hoosiers are ranked amongst the country's elite this week:
#4 Taylor Walsh (157 lbs)
#4 Adam Chalfant (285 lbs)
#17 Luke Sheridan (184 lbs)
#20 Ryan LeBlanc (165 lbs)
#32 Eric Roach (149 lbs)

The five projected NCAA Qualifiers would be the most at IU since sending a half dozen in 2010.

CENTURY CLUB
Ryan LeBlanc is quickly approaching admittance into the 100-win club as an owner of 93 career victories. In addition, he needs 11 more W's this season to crack IU's all-time top-10 for wins in a season. Teammate Taylor Walsh is 11 wins shy of the top-10 as well.

KIND OF A B1G DEAL
Hoosier heavyeight Adam Chalfant picked up Big Ten Wrestler of the Week honors on Jan. 7 after dominating 2nd-ranked Mike McMullan with three takedowns and three near-fall points while limiting the Wildcat to four escape points. He is the second Hoosier to earn the conference recognition this season after 157-pounder Taylor Walsh got the nod following his four-pin championship performance during the season-opening Clarion Open.

BIG TEN DOING BIG THINGS
As a conference, the Big Ten is a combined 65-11 in 76 non-conference duals during the 2013-14 campaign, good for a 85.5 winning percentage. Ten B1G schools can be found in the most recent USA Today Coaches Poll Top-25 and Intermat's Top-25 this week.
