Game 482 - Green Bay women at IUPUI

January 15 at IUPUI Gymnasium in Indianapolis, IN
Horizon League on espn3

Green Bay came into the night with the top scoring defense in the country and did not disappoint in this Horizon League showdown.

The Associated Press No. 23 Phoenix, who allow a nation-best 47.4 points and second-best 32% on field goal attempts, held IUPUI to 25% (10-of-40), including just 2-of-19 from three-point range in a 60-34 win.

Although not known as much for its offense, Green Bay (15-2, 5-1) really moves the ball well and its back door, cutting action is some of the best I've seen. The Phoenix got 20 points on 8-of-9 shooting from Allie LeClaire and 15 points on 6-of-10 shooting from Jessica Lindstrom in handing the Horizon newcomer its first league loss in six games.

Game 139 - Valparaiso at Green Bay

February 28 at Resch Center in Green Bay, WI

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.
