Spring’s snaps offer many teaching moments
TOM LYNN
P

aul Chryst was enlisted to supply context and reasoning to the supposition and perception of a more efficient passing game. Based on a small sample (nine of 15 spring practices), it was suggested to the Wisconsin coach that there seemed to be, at times, more rhythm between the pitchers and catchers. Cutting to the chase, he was asked, “Are you throwing it and catching it better?” “That’s the goal,” Chryst responded. “And there are times when I’ve felt that and, then, all of a sudden, you get one guy unsure of what he’s doing and there’s the multiplier effect. The other day, we ended up throwing a pick and what really came of it was a receiver who ran the wrong route.
“He brought a guy into the coverage and it created a tip and go (interception). Two Saturdays ago, we had a couple where the play, for whatever reason, broke down. One was protection, one was kind of a route. But the out can’t be ‘Just to throw it up there.’” On the practice mistakes that result in picks, he added, “If you can learn from that in April, it’s a great snap. But we’ve got to minimize that because it showed up a little bit in the fall (of 2018).” Does he subscribe to the thought process that young quarterbacks have to figuratively touch the hot burner to build scar tissue and muscle memory? “I do believe in that,” Chryst said. “You’d like to say, ‘We’re going to have a group that doesn’t
have to touch the stove.’ But it’s kind of human nature. “If it doesn’t sting them, it’s a wasted rep and you’re not getting better.” He later returned to the theme when talking about players getting spring reps and volume work. “I still think a great way to learn is by playing,” he said. “You need to play enough snaps so you can screw something up, learn from and then hopefully not repeat it.” Chryst then volunteered an example of a correctable mistake and teachable moment. “We were working on an end of the first half, two-minute situation, and the offense was in third-and-long,” he recounted of a recent practice. “The odds of getting the first down weren’t
huge, so now you’re trying to figure out, ‘How do we run the clock?’ “We ran a little screen pass and the ballcarrier took the ball out of bounds. It’s exactly what you don’t want because you’ve got to keep the clock going. We can learn from that or reinforce that in April. Those are things that give you an opportunity to get better if you have the right approach.” Chryst’s approach? He’ll jot down some practice notes that will wind up in a binder. “I’m not looking to store stuff,” he insisted. “But you’re doing your preparation for next spring while it’s fresh. What did you like? What’s a way we can make the use of time better? It’s a way you can stay ahead.” On the heels of winter conditioning, or Phase One of the offseason calendar, Chryst has fundamental objectives for Phase Two, or spring ball. Prior to last Saturday’s practice he shared random items in his April playbook. “I don’t know if I’m right, but I’ve always looked at spring with a different lens. “What’s fun about the spring … everyone is at a different stage of their development. “Right now, I’m much less concerned about schematics. “In my opinion, the spring is much more individual-specific. “Your offense, defense and special teams don’t have to be game-ready. “It’s not a finished product. “The spring is really about, ‘How do you help them grow?’
“This is when you see some separation.” That last point was made to the players after reaching the spring’s halfway point. Chryst elaborated. “Those who are consistently doing something are starting to separate. It’s interesting and always has been to me. There aren’t a lot of times where coaches have to make a hard decision on who plays. The game, and the tape, tells the story more than having to make a decision.”
“I DON’T KNOW IF I’M RIGHT, BUT I’VE ALWAYS LOOKED AT SPRING WITH A DIFFERENT LENS ... THE SPRING IS REALLY ABOUT, ‘HOW DO YOU HELP THEM GROW?’ THIS IS WHEN YOU SEE SOME SEPARATION.” There are exceptions. Like when the Badgers have been blessed with a stable of quality tailbacks. Like James White, John Clay and Montee Ball in 2010. Or Ball, White and Melvin Gordon in 2012. “We’ve had a couple of those situations,” said Chryst, underscoring that it’s not generally the rule. To this end, last Saturday’s scrimmaging offered more insight on his personnel. “We need every one of these practices,” he said, “because there are a lot of the details that are really important to playing good football that we may be doing but we’re not doing consistently. It’s fun at this time of
the year to see who’s progressing as a player. “Not every player you will see today will be competing for a starting job in the fall. There’s a few you can say, ‘They’re going to start unless something really unfortunate happens.’ Then there’s going to be a group where you can say, ‘He’s got a chance to become one of those starters or a key backup.’ “Then, you have some guys who probably won’t start on offense or defense, but probably can be a heavy contributor on special teams. Then, you have guys who are competing to put themselves in position to travel and to be in the two-deep. “The spring is really important because it’s going to kind of dictate how many reps you’re going to get in the fall. We’re going to add 30 players this summer and some of them will work themselves into the depth. Not that your role has to be defined in the spring. But you certainly get an indication.” While watching some of Saturday’s practice from the patio outside of Bucky’s Locker Room at the south end of the stadium, Wisconsin deputy athletic director Chris McIntosh revisited some spring experiences from his playing days as an All-American offensive tackle for the Badgers. “I loved the spring, especially as my career progressed,” said McIntosh. “At the beginning, it’s about trying to catch up to the learning curve — things are moving pretty quick.

TAYLOR JOHNSON SOFTBALL ▪ SOPHOMORE ▪ BEECHER, ILL.
What’s the biggest difference you’ve noticed between your freshman and sophomore seasons? “Patience and comfortability. I feel less tense this season than last because I know that when I stick to a game plan at the plate good things are bound to happen. As for my defense, I have noticed that I have become one of the vocal leaders on the field whether that’s directing infield or being in the pitcher’s ear from pitch to pitch, I always feel the need to not let the field fall silent during play.” You play with a sense of fierceness behind the plate. What is it about your new role as catcher that’s brought out that side of you? “This year I told the team that I was going to bring the ‘fire’ and even before moving behind the plate, my role at third was to constantly be talking to the pitchers, whether that’s being fired up on a strikeout or keeping the team focused in from pitch to pitch. As for my new role, I knew that I would still have to bring my very passionate, high-energy style behind the plate. It doesn’t matter where I play. All that matters is the high-vocal intensity is still in place.” What’s your favorite moment as a Wisconsin softball player so far in your career? “Making the NCAA tournament my freshman year has got to be the best UW softball moment for me so far. I remember sitting with my teammates watching the selection show and the moment that Wisconsin came across the screen, I remember feeling excited for the opportunity to play in the postseason and that first win was an indescribable feeling of accomplishment.” If you could trade places with one of your teammates or coaches for the day, who would you be and why? “I would be any one of the pitchers for a day. Everyone knows my dream is to be able to pitch in an actual game in my career. So, if for one day I could switch places with one of our amazingly talented pitchers so that I could hum some strikes in there, I would without a doubt do it in a heartbeat.” Do you have any pregame rituals or superstitions? If so, what are they? “My pregame rituals are that I always get my hair braided by Heather Rudnicki and I have to put on gold highlighter to my cheeks. As for a superstition, my mom always sends me a text before every game and she always says, ‘Have a day kid!!’” Click to read more »

Collin Wilder makes lasting impression on 10-year old patient BY BADGERS GIVE BACK STAFF
T
his past month, Wisconsin football junior safety Collin Wilder joined Badgers Give Back for a trip to the American Family Children’s Hospital to visit with young patients and their families. At the end of the trip, he met up with a friend of his, 10-year old Aubrey Wayman, a patient with lymphoma. From the looks of it, you’d imagine these two had known each other for years, but they’d actually only met once before — at Camp Randall this past fall. Wisconsin Athletics welcomed Aubrey and her family to Camp Randall at the football game vs. New Mexico for an on-field recognition in honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. It was during this time that Aubrey met Collin and they instantly bonded. After meeting Aubrey at the game, Collin reached out to Aubrey’s mom, wondering if there was anything he could do to help. Since then, Collin has built a friendship with Aubrey and her family. “I’m just glad I can be a small part in her process,” Collin said. “Having to fight cancer day in
and day out can easily put you in a dark place.” For Aubrey, having someone to talk to provides an outlet. A time for her to just be a kid, talking to her friend. What seems like such a simple gesture has made a tremendous impact on her. When Collin realized he’d be visiting the hospital, he wanted to see if Aubrey was there because it had been a while since they’d last seen each other in person. It turned out Aubrey was in for treatments that day, so Collin and Mrs. Wayman set up a visit. With a big smile and full heart, Collin brought Aubrey flowers, her favorite candy and his jersey for her to wear on game days next year. There wasn’t a single face without a smile on it in that moment, but Aubrey’s was definitely the biggest. “He absolutely made her week,” Mrs. Wayman remarked. “She said it was worth getting her chemo shots to see him. She’s still beaming.” And so are we. Learn more about Badgers Give Back here. ▪

vette Healy has never been around someone quite like Kayla Konwent. “No,” she said with a laugh. “That’s a fast, easy no.” Healy has been coaching major-college softball for the better part of two decades, including the last nine years at Wisconsin where she has the most victories and highest winning percentage in program history. During her time with the Badgers, Healy has had three players hit .400 for a season, two finish with an on-base percentage above .500, two amass 50-plus runs batted in, two finish with 50-plus runs scored and one have a slugging percentage over .700. Healy has also seen three different players hit three home runs in one game and six players finish a season with double-digit homers going back to her debut season at Wisconsin in 2010. Record-book numbers and eye-catching feats to be sure. Yet Healy has never worked with anyone like Konwent, that kind of rare talent whose presence is felt strongly on the field and off, in ways both prominent and subtle. Konwent can do world-class things on the
diamond, but she may have had as much impact on her team when she sat out her first two collegiate seasons recovering from multiple shoulder surgeries. “She really is special,” Healy said. The regular season has not yet runs its course — 12 games remain until the Big Ten Conference tournament, which then gives way to the NCAA postseason — and already Konwent has set the program record for most home runs with 13. Going into Big Ten home series with Minnesota and Indiana at Goodman Diamond, Konwent is on pace to set school standards for batting average (.483), slugging percentage (.957) and OPS (1.537) and is poised to obliterate the single-season marks for total bases and runs batted in. Those projections help explain why the Badgers (30-8 overall, 7-5 in the Big Ten) have spent time ranked in the top 25 and reached the 30-win plateau faster than any outfit in program history. Healy isn’t yet sure how good her team is. “I think we’ve done some really great things up to this point,” she said. “I think everybody is excited to see where the cards fall.”

According to Healy, Konwent, a right-handed-hitting first baseman/catcher, consistently hits 90 mph. Imagine being an opposing third baseman with one of those rockets screaming in your direction. Healy said her assistants, Kirsten Verdun and Danielle Zymkowitz, have both played professionally and both say very few players in the world can generate that kind of exit velocity. “That puts Kayla at a different level,” Healy said. Konwent has been linked to the Badgers since 2015 when, as a junior at Westosha Central High School (Salem, Wis.), she committed after leading the Falcons to WIAA state titles in 2013 and ’15. But after setting state records for career home runs with 50 and walks with 135 — after twice being named Gatorade Player of the Year and emerging as a top20 recruit nationally — Konwent showed

“Maybe it’s a sign,” she thought to herself. Konwent had been playing softball since she was 7, drawn by a love of hitting and being part of a team. “She’s been playing softball and loving softball for so long and it was taken away,” Konwent’s mother, Cheryl, said. “She was like, ‘What do I do now?’ That was hard for her I think.” Healy credits Konwent’s teammates and Ashley Parr, an athletic trainer who’s been working with the softball team since Healy took over, with creating the right environment of support and feedback. Konwent did her part, too. “When some players get hurt, they immediately make it about themselves,” Healy said. “It’s really hard getting past that initial sense of feeling sorry for yourself and you walk around with that aura. “Kayla really never had that. Her outlook has always been so positive of just moving forward, rehabbing, getting back on the field. She’s been a great person to have on the team. Her temperament has made it easy as a coaching staff that you want her outlook and energy around the team.” Healy said Konwent has a “service mentality” that, during the rehabilitation process, made her a valued presence around the team whether it was in the dugout, video sessions or the bus that carried the Badgers to their road assignments. Kayla is the only child of Cheryl and Tom Konwent, which helps explain her advanced maturity and unselfish instincts. “Being part of a team, working with other young people, was important to her and good for her,” Cheryl said. Sophomore shortstop Lauren Foster said she couldn’t recall a single instance where Konwent showed up for a team function in a funk. “I love that girl,” Foster said. “It’s cool to see how far she’s come.”

FEATURE STORY
Giving back natural to Bunz, Badgers Senior defenseman joins impressive list of Badgers recognized for charitable work BY ANDY BAGGOT ▪ UWBADGERS.COM INSIDER
B
36
UFFALO, N.Y. — The question had a degree of difficulty that gave Jake Bunz a moment of pause, but he ultimately forged ahead with a reply. Could he provide some perspective on the humanitarian lifestyle that distinguishes so many Wisconsin student-athletes these days? Bunz, a senior defenseman for the men’s hockey team, is the latest to be recognized nationally for his social work. He was named Friday the winner of the Hockey Humanitarian Award, which was introduced back in 1996 and has since developed a distinct Wisconsin flavor. Bunz joined Brittany Ammerman, a winger from the women’s team in 2015, and Erik Raygor, a winger from the men’s squad in 1998, as recipients who played for the Badgers. Nominees for the Hockey Humanitarian Award come from all NCAA competition levels and no other school has as many winners as Wisconsin.
Bunz was joined on the list of five finalists by Annie Pankowski, a senior All-American winger from the women’s team. In all, the two Badgers hockey programs have had six individuals nominated, including goaltender Joel Rumpel in 2015, center Andrew Joudrey in 2007 and defenseman Dan Boeser in 2004. Bunz, from Middleton, Wisconsin, is part of an ongoing relief effort in Haiti, focusing heavily on an orphanage in the village of Fond Blanc that was battered by a hurricane in 2010, while Pankowski, from Laguna Hills, California, has devoted much of her free time on campus training service dogs for the visually impaired. The two join a lengthy list of student-athletes from all corners of the Wisconsin athletics landscape who have distinguished themselves through humanitarian works. Some, like J.J. Watt and Jake Wood, do it on a prominent scale.
Some, like D’Cota Dixon, Lily Hansen and Ethan Happ stand on a quieter stage. Bunz was asked for perspective on that culture of giving, whether it’s sweat, passion, time or money. “It kind of reflects the (fact) coaches bring in and want to bring in outstanding human beings,” he said. “I think it looks great for the university. Great people coming out of the university doing cool things. Other student-athletes would look at that and say, ‘I want to go to Wisconsin and do something similar.’ “Good on the coaches who are recruiting these outstanding citizens.” Bunz emphasized that he’s talking about his peers, not himself, in this equation. He also mentioned on multiple occasions that the award he received during the men’s NCAA Frozen Four in Buffalo, New York, was made possible by the work of so many others, especially the “massive” efforts by his mother Tia, who oversees the non-profit Fond Blanc Foundation in Middleton. “It’s not just me doing it,” Bunz said. But modesty aside, Bunz has reason to be proud of his character and the priorities that brought another Hockey Humanitarian Award to Wisconsin. “It’s just brought a lot of positive attention to the foundation, which has been great,” he said. “There are so many people involved, not just the people that go down there, but also the people back home that haven’t had the chance to go down. It’s a community effort.” In the midst of pursuing a degree in real estate — he’s on pace to graduate next month — Bunz has been part of a dozen mission trips to Haiti since 2012. Homes and service buildings have been constructed or repaired on his watch. Fruit trees and gardens have been planted with the goal of providing sustainable food supplies. Plumbing upgrades have also been made for the 60 or so children at the orphanage.
At the same time, strong relationships have been forged both in Haiti and Middleton, where a squadron of volunteers helps stage fundraisers and plan the itineraries.
