Chenal has been a dominant force for the Badgers defense this season, stepping up as a starter. The sophomore put on a show during Wisconsin’s 20-17 overtime victory over Minnesota to close out the regular season.
With a career high 13 tackles, five for a loss and two sacks, also notching her first career forced fumble, the game made Chenal the first Wisconsin player to post five tackles for loss in a game since 2017.
