The Gophers will not receive an automatic bid for the NCAA tournament after a loss to Wisconsin. They will find out on Sunday whether they make the tournament.

Every time the Gophers found the back of the net, Michigan seemed always to have an answer.

Minnesota has five top-25 wins, including two top-10 wins, but also has lost to the two worst teams in the conference and is currently on a six-game losing streak.

Minnesota was without two starters and four players overall, an absence that proved too much to overcome in its regular-season finale.

It will have been almost two weeks since Minnesota has played when it returns to Maturi Pavilion on March 12-13.

The only thing the Gophers have been consistent with this year is their inability to hit threes, rebounding troubles and winning on the road. All of those were evident against Penn State.

Minnesota’s longtime head coach John Anderson is about to begin his 40th season leading the Gophers baseball team.

After not seeing the court in Minnesota’s first four matches, middle blocker Shea Rubright has continued to contribute to the Gophers’ success.

Gophers’ gymnast Mya Hooten garnered back-to-back Big Ten Freshman of the Week award honors, and she’s only just beginning.

Shane Wiskus notched the highest two-day all-around score, finishing the weekend at 165.200.
