The Phoenix currently stand atop the League's standings with a 9-0 mark and is riding a 15-game winning streak into the contest. The Panthers stand two games back at 7-2 and have only lost twice at the Klotsche Center this season (7-2).

Seniors Nicole Soulis and Natalie Berglin lead the offense for UW-Green Bay (18-3 overall). Soulis, the reigning Horizon League Player of the Year, currently is second in the loop in scoring (17.7) and third in field-goal percentage (.561). The 6-foot-2 forward has topped the 20-point mark seven times this season and has scored in double digits in the team's last 11 games. Berglin, a 5-foot-7 guard, paces the circuit in assists (4.57) and assist-to-turnover ratio (2.91).

Sophomore Traci Edwards has been the top scoring threat this season for UW-Milwaukee (11-11). The 6-foot-2 center leads the League in scoring (20.0), rebounding (9.5) and blocked shots (1.57), while also placing among the leaders in field-goal percentage (second at .590) and free-throw percentage (fifth at .800). Edwards set the League's top single-game point total this season with 42 markers on Jan. 20 against Cleveland State.
