Phoenix women advance to Horizon League semifinals

For the third time this year, the Green Bay Phoenix women's basketball team dismantled the Oakland Golden Grizzlies, this time beating them 84-58 in front of over 2,200 fans at the Kress Events Center.

 

The Phoenix outscored the Golden Grizzlies by at least eight points in three of the four quarters en route to their 20th win in a row. The Phoenix shot nearly 50 percent from the field despite a rough evening from beyond the arc (27 percent). A key to the victory also came on the glass as the Phoenix outrebounded their visitors 42-22.

 

Maddy Schreiber led all Phoenix players with 21 points, while Natalie McNeal chipped in 14 points and Callie Genke pitched in 11 points. Four other players scored at least eight points in the win.

 

The Phoenix will now prepare to play Robert Morris in the Horizon League semifinals on Monday in Indianapolis at 11 a.m. The winner takes on either No. 2 Purdue Fort Wayne or No. 3 Cleveland State.
