Badgers' Tucker in tune in Rock-N-Roll victory


No.19 Wisconsin 71, Ohio 48

CLEVELAND - Alando Tucker scored a season-high 22 points and Zach Morley had a career-high 14 and No. 19 Wisconsin wore down Ohio for a 71-48 victory in the Rock-N-Roll Shootout on Saturday night.

Tucker, who missed Wisconsin's first five games while recovering from a broken right foot, had another strong game in just his second start this season for the Badgers (8-1).

The 6-foot-5 sophomore went 8-for-13 from the field and added six rebounds as Wisconsin dominated underneath while tuning up for a game at Alabama on Tuesday.

"I'm just getting back to the point where my legs feel good," said Tucker, who broke his foot in Madison, Wis., on Oct. 9 while running up a hill in a preseason conditioning drill. "I'm feeling better playing longer periods of time."

Tucker hobbled off favoring his right foot in the final minute, but by then Wisconsin was up by 23 points and coasted to its fifth straight win.

After being used off the bench for two games, Tucker made his first start on Dec. 20 at Marquette and had 17 points in 31 minutes.

"He gives them another dimension on offense," Ohio coach Tim O'Shea said. "He can shoot 3s. He can post up inside."

Thomas Stephens had 13 points to lead the Bobcats (3-7). Ohio trailed by 18 early in the second half.
