Green Bay’s season ends in CBI

March 16, 2017 By Bill Scott

The Green Bay Phoenix ran into some hot second half shooting on Wednesday night, falling to UMKC 92-82 in the First Round of the CBI in Kansas City.

The Phoenix saw their season come to an end at 18-14.

The Kangaroos (18-16) made their last seven field goals in the game and scored 52 second-half points, including 7-for-11 from three-point range in the second half.  LaVell Boyd scored 28 points and Kyle Steward added 20 for UMKC.

Kerem Kanter scored a team-high 20 points and grabbed six rebounds, hitting eight of his nine field goal attempts.  Green Bay shot 47-percent from the field but went just 4-for-21 from three-point range.

Green Bay accepts bid to CBI

March 13, 2017 By Bill Scott

The Green Bay men’s basketball team has accepted an invite to play in the 2017 College Basketball Invitational (CBI).

The Phoenix (18-13) will visit the UMKC Kangaroos (17-16) on Wednesday night at the Municipal Auditorium in Kansas City.

It’s Green Bay’s third trip to the CBI in program history and the first since the 2009-10 season when it lost in the quarterfinals.

The Phoenix finished in the top four of the Horizon League for the fifth straight season this year, before falling in the quarterfinals of Motor City Madness to No. 6 seed UIC.

This will be the second meeting against the Kangaroos for the second time this season after winning 95-77 at the Bill Frack Tournament in Bowling Green on November 21.

Should the Phoenix advance out of the first round, they would face a road game against either Wyoming or Eastern Washington on Monday, March 20.
