THE HORIZON LEAGUE SPOTLIGHT

  • Green Bay is ranked No. 22 in the most-recent Associated Press poll (Dec. 28) and No. 23 in the latest ESPN/USA Today poll (Dec. 22). The Phoenix's best all-time ranking of No. 16 came during the 2002-03 season.


  • Green Bay (11-0) is one of just six undefeated NCAA Division I women's teams. Georgia (12-0) is the only undefeated squad with more wins than the Phoenix.


  • Green Bay has defeated three Bowl Championship Series Conference opponents this season. The Phoenix topped Wisconsin (60-58) on Nov. 24, DePaul (79-68) on Dec. 2 and Marquette (65-48) on Dec. 19.


  • Cleveland State posted a 77-75 win over Indiana on Dec. 19. The overtime decision was CSU's first win over a BCS Conference opponent since Dec. 30, 1996, when the Vikings knocked off Big East foe Syracuse. CSU defeated Louisville on Dec. 18, 2003, but the Cardinals were a Conference USA member at the time.
