Maybe the third time is the charm for Green Bay Phoenix men's basketball team as they travel to Michigan on Tuesday to face the Oakland Golden Grizzlies in the Horizon League Tournament opener.
The Phoenix lost both of their games to the Golden Grizzlies this season, falling on the road 68-54 and losing last Saturday at the Resch Center 87-84. In the most recent contest, the Phoenix men saw a double-digit lead evaporate before losing to Oakland 87-84 in overtime. The Phoenix were outrebounded by 11, including the one by Allen Mukeba that he corralled and put back to force the extra period. Marcus Hall led the Phoenix with 25 points, while Jeremiah Johnson poured in 18 points and Foster Wonders added 12 points off the bench.
Tip-off is set for 6 p.m.
