Phoenix women to face Lady Vols in NCAA opener

Posted About One Month Ago by Tim Kowols

The Green Bay Phoenix women's basketball team will play the Tennessee Lady Volunteers in their first NCAA Tournament game since 2018.

A couple hundred fans filled an auxiliary room at a Green Bay restaurant to celebrate the achievement. The Phoenix women punched their ticket with a Horizon League Tournament win over Cleveland State last Tuesday. The Lady Vols had their hearts broken in the SEC Tournament when undefeated South Carolina hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer to eliminate them.

The Phoenix have tournament history against the Lady Vols, losing to them in 2016 59-53. A win would be the first for the Phoenix since they beat Iowa State in 2012.

The game is scheduled for 11 a.m. on Saturday.
