April 15 marked the third annual Badgers Go Bald event as part of the Badgers Give Back program at University of Wisconsin.
The program gives children suffering from cancer from American Family Children’s hospital the opportunity to cut the hair and shave the heads of a group of UW student athletes.
This year’s participating student athletes were Bart Houston (football), Andy Hamilton (men’s rowing), Andrew Endicott (football), Matt Miller (football), Rachel Fledderman (women’s track and field), Rylan Lubeck (wrestling), Connor Udelhoven (football) and Ali Nageotte (women’s golf).
UW Associate Athletics Director Chris McIntosh also decided to get in on the action.
After the student athlete’s hair appointments concluded, the children got the opportunity to walk onto the Camp Randall field, spend time catching touchdown passes from Houston and run up and down the sidelines.
