The University of Wisconsin volleyball team will have a new starter at libero next season.
Lola Schumacher, who started 23 of the Badgers’ 33 matches at the position as a freshman last season, has entered the transfer portal, according to BadgerExtra sources.
Fellow freshman Maile Chan started at libero over Schumacher in the Badgers’ last two spring matches last month, with Schumacher subbing in to serve and as a defensive specialist. Schumacher had two digs in a sweep of Marquette, then another two in a sweep of UW-Green Bay.

There will be plenty of competition to replace Schumacher in the Badgers’ starting lineup. Chan will be in the mix, but she will have to beat out incoming freshmen Aniya Warren and Kristen Simon. Warren is the top ranked libero in the 2025 recruiting class and No. 11 overall, according to PrepDig, while Kristen Simon is ranked No. 70 by PrepDig.
Schumacher emerged as a stalwart in the back row for the Badgers last season. She played a huge role in her first collegiate start at libero, recording 27 digs in Wisconsin’s 3-2 win over Baylor.
“Lola made some digs in the right back where the match was over,” Badgers coach Kelly Sheffield said after that match in Waco, Texas. “How are these balls going to get up, and she’s just flying around.”
An injury forced her to miss three matches during the season, but she returned in time to help the Badgers reach the regional final, where they lost to Nebraska.
The 5-foot-5 Schumacher averaged a team-high 3.64 digs per set and ranked fifth on the team with 17 service aces. She will have three years of eligibility remaining.
The Badgers will open the season Aug. 29 when they host Kansas at the Kohl Center. They then will face Texas at 1 p.m. Aug. 31, also at the Kohl Center.

We entered day two of the 2025 German Swimming Championships and the first national age group record of the competition bit the dust in this morning’s prelims.
Kaii Winkler produced a huge new lifetime best of 48.41 while racing in the heats of the men’s 100m freestyle.
The 19-year-old captured the 2nd seed behind top performer Josha Salchow who pulled out an AM effort of 48.09 to land lane 4 for this evening’s final.
As for NC State’s Winkler, the teen opened in 23.40 and closed in 25.01 to register the new age record, becoming Germany’s 7th-swiftest performer in history.
Entering this competition, Winkler had never before been 48-low, with his previous PB resting at the 48.81 put up at the 2023 Pro Swim Series in Fort Lauderdale. That represented the only time he’d been under the 49-second barrier in the event.
While the World Aquatics ‘A’ selection standard for this summer’s World Championships sits at 48.34, the German Swimming Federation set its own qualification time at a quicker 48.20. Salchow’s time dipped under that while Winkler will need to shave off another .21 to meet the mark in tonight’s main event.
Top 8 Heats Finishers in Men’s LCM 100 Free at German Championships
Josha Salchow – 48.09 *Worlds qualifying
Kaii Winkler – 48.41 *German Age Record
Luka Armbruster – 49.09
Lukas Märtens – 49.16

Tobias van Aggelen – 49.65
Timo Sorgius – 49.68
Moritz Schaller – 49.69
As a refresher, after competing at the U.S. Olympic Trials last year, Winkler changed his sporting citizenship to represent Germany at the actual Games in Paris.
NHL announces draft lottery date: When the Bruins will learn their fate – 98.5 The Sports Hub

The NHL announced on Tuesday that they will hold their 2025 draft lottery on Monday, May 5. That’s when the Bruins will find out just how high they’re selecting, which will be no lower than seventh overall.
The Bruins have the best chance since 2006 that their own pick will fall in the top-five. Having earned just 76 points during the season, the Bruins have the fifth-best odds to land the No. 1 pick at 8.5 percent.
The presumed No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 draft is defenseman Matthew Schaefer, a dynamic blue liner playing in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL). He’s followed by forward Michael Misa, also from the OHL, who led the Canadian Hockey League with 134 points in 2024-25.
Who will fall between picks 3-6is less clear, but NHL.com has James Hagens as the third prospect in the draft. Hagens played his freshman year at Boston College, registering 37 points. He is also one of the few collegiate hockey players projected in the first round.
The Bruins can pick as high as No. 1 and as low as No. 7 (14.2 percent). They will most likely end up with No. 5 or No. 6 overall, based on the odds.
Bruins’ Complete Lottery Odds:
First Pick: 8.5% Second Pick: 8.6% Third Pick: 0.3% Fifth Pick: 24.5% Sixth Pick: 44.0% Seventh Pick: 14.2%
Which prospects the Bruins will have the opportunity to select will become more clear on May 5, and the draft will take place on June 27-28. The Bruins should have a chance to bring in a young impact player with their 2025 pick.
