Braeden Carrington already elevates Wisconsin basketball in fifth year

MADISON – Braeden Carrington was in his element late in Wisconsin basketball ’s season opener. The 6-foot-5 guard raised his arms to fire up the Kohl Center crowd while on the defensive end, a few seconds after his second 3-pointer of the night and about 25 seconds before his next momentum-shifting stepback 3-pointer. It was an obvious spark in the Badgers ’ relatively narrow 75-68 win over Denver , and it was an unexpected one when looking at the big picture. Carrington’s 15-point performance followed a summer where his only path to a college basketball court would be via a lawsuit against the NCAA. That worked – at least for now – after a judge granted a preliminary injunction in October. “Obviously I thought last year was my last year of college, so coming back and being able to play here for one more year, it’s amazing,” Carrington said after starting in the Denver game. “And to have a big impact this year obviously feels good.” That stretch in the second half of the Denver game showcased in many ways what Carrington’s late return can do for the Badgers. Carrington’s 3-point shooting is an obvious plus after he hit 40.2%

Democrats flip 88th Assembly District as Tollefson upsets Franklin

Democrats on Nov. 3 won the two most competitive legislative elections in northeastern Wisconsin, contributing to an expected Democratic Party trifecta in Madison and adding to a swath of Democratic victories across the nation. Democratic candidate Brandy Tollefson, treasurer for the De Pere School Board, unseated Republican state Rep. Benjamin Franklin by 8.5 percentage points to represent Assembly District 88, which includes De Pere, Allouez, Bellevue, and part of Green Bay. “I am sincerely grateful to the voters of our community for the trust they have placed in me," Tollefson said in a statement. "To all of our volunteers, my friends and family: thank you, truly. When we launched this campaign in January, we had a vision of building a better future here in Brown County, where our schools are fully funded, healthcare is within reach, and families can afford to live and thrive. I look forward to the task of making that vision a reality as your next state representative.” And Democratic Rep. Ryan Spaude held onto his seat against Republican challenger and former Milwaukee police officer Bobby Lindsey in Assembly District 89, winning by 12.6 percentage points to represent Ashwaubenon and the west side of Green Bay.
