GREEN BAY, Wis. — The Packers couldn’t honestly pull off an undefeated season. Another team from Green Bay still has a shot.
The Wisconsin-Green Bay women’s basketball work together is 19-0 going into today’s game against Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Settled their dominant stature in the Horizon League, the Phoenix stand a tuneful good chance of getting to the NCAA tournament without a loss.
Outcome isn’t anything new for the Phoenix, who have more or less controlled their conference for more than a decade. But after last year’s surprising help-round victory over Michigan State in the NCAA tournament, people are starting to criticism.
Green Bay was No. 10 in The Associated Press poll this week, the program’s first semblance in the top 10.
“You can feel it a little bit,” Phoenix coach Matt Bollant said. “It’s clearly ramped up this week. And so as a coach, it feels good. But at the same time, we’ve got to be responsible about how we handle this. Do we keep doing the right things? How did we get to here? And making sure that we’re focused on the principal things. But I’m happy for our program. We’ve got a great tale to tell.
