The time is now for Phoenix basketball

Photo credit: Green Bay Athletics/GreenBayPhoenix.com By: Marques Eversoll The University of Wisconsin-Green Bay men’s basktball won’t host the Horizon League tournament — as long as Valparaiso is still alive — but the Phoenix has to be pleased with how things are setting up.
