Versatile Steven Crowl set to play against Ohio State despite an apparent leg/knee injury
COLUMBUS, Ohio – Wisconsin center Steven Crowl, who apparently suffered a minor left-leg knee injury sometime after UW's latest victory, still intends to play Wednesday night against Ohio State.
Crowl was listed as questionable on the team’s availability report earlier Wednesday and entered the arena wearing a black sleeve on his left leg. He was limping and rode a stationary bike while his teammates participated in warm-ups and then did exercises to test his mobility.
However, when UW returned to the court for pregame warm-ups, Crowl joined his teammates and was subsequently listed among the Badgers' starters.
