The UW-Green Bay women will find out tonight if they’re headed to the NCAA Tournament. The Phoenix are 27-4, after losing to Cleveland State at home on Friday night in the semi-finals of the Horizon League tourney.

Green Bay has won 9-of-its-last-10, with victories over Wisconsin, Marquette, and DePaul. Their loss to Cleveland State snapped a 27-game home winning streak. With that kind of record, coach Matt Bollant says his team deserves an at-large berth to the NCAA’s. They’ll find out during the Selection Show which starts at six tonight.

If Green Bay does not make the Field-of-64, they’ll have to wait until later in the evening to see if it gets an invite to the Women’s NIT Tournament. Wisconsin and Marquette will also be waiting to see if they make the field of 64.
