Biadasz was a dominant force in 2015, and has the makings of one of those in-state "sleepers" who will blossom into a solid contributor to the Wisconsin defense in years to come.

In the Division 4 WIAA championship game alone, he blocked two punts and forced a fumble in Amherst's 42-0 win over Spencer-Columbus. A two-time WFCA first-team all-state selection, he comes to Madison after an impressive senior year where he was awarded the Tim Krumrie Award as the most outstanding defensive lineman in the state.
