The Bisons’ unexpected victory proved just enough to bump the Black and White off the medal stand, dropping Radcliffe to a fourth-place finish behind Bucknell, Princeton, and Wisconsin.

Remember that Wisconsin is a friendly place, our door is always open, the Ad Board confiscated our iron fist months ago, and most importantly, that “I need a place to sleep” is not a pick-up line, but the honest truth...
