Steven Crowl Pens Emotional Goodbye to Wisconsin Basketball…..
Steven Crowl, a pivotal figure for the Wisconsin Badgers, has announced his departure from the basketball program. Throughout his tenure, Crowl’s dedication and performances have left an indelible mark on the team. Notably, he became the school’s all-time leading scorer with 1,747 points, showcasing his consistent contribution on the court.
However, the 2024-2025 season presented challenges for Crowl. In a game against Illinois on December 10, 2024, he did not secure a single rebound during his 19 minutes on the court. This led head coach Greg Gard to express his concerns, stating, “I think defensively, you look at (Steven Crowl’s) line, he has no rebounds. How do you have no rebounds?”
While Crowl has not publicly detailed the reasons for his departure, factors such as performance pressures and a desire for a new environment may have influenced his decision. His exit signifies a significant shift for the Badgers, who will need to adjust their lineup and strategy in his absence. Fans and the basketball community will keenly watch Crowl’s next steps, whether he transfers to another collegiate program or explores professional opportunities.
