In one of the tightest games we've seen at 200 Game Season, Horizon League regular season champion Valparaiso escaped with a 70-68 victory.
There were 14 ties and an amazing 23 lead changes, four of which came in the final three minutes:
* Green Bay, who I think as a No. 4 seed has a chance to go on a bit of a run in the Horizon Tournament, got a three-point play from Jordan Fouse with 1:04 left.
* Alec Peters was fantastic for the visitors (25 points, 15 rebounds in 37 minutes) & he hit his last bucket with 44.2 seconds left, then Jamar Hurdle's lay-up 24 seconds later put Green Bay back up 68-67.
* The last lead change came on a top of the key 3-pointer from Shane Hammink with 2.2 seconds left.
