Preview
Preview: Youngstown State Penguins at Green Bay Phoenix ASHWAUBENON, Wis. (Interstat) — Two of the Horizon League’s early-season contenders meet Sunday when the Green Bay Phoenix host the Youngstown State Penguins in a women’s NCAA Division I basketball matchup at the Resch Center. The Penguins (5-2) enter on a high note, coming off a dominant 90-63 road victory at Akron on Nov. 30. Youngstown State’s offense was firing, led by a career-high 24 points from standout guard Sophia Gregory. The junior is averaging 16.5 points over her last two games and will be a primary focus for the Phoenix defense. Green Bay (6-3) responded from a two-game skid with a solid 70-60 league win at Northern Kentucky on Thursday. The Phoenix have relied on balanced scoring and a stout defense, allowing just 60.2 points per game. Guard Jenna Guyer has been a consistent offensive threat, scoring in double figures in three of her last four outings, including a 16-point performance at Richmond. This game represents an early conference test for both squads. Youngstown State’s two losses have come against power conference foe Michigan State and a narrow defeat to Toledo. The Penguins have shown offensive versatility, with Erica King and Sarah Baker providing strong support alongside Gregory. Green Bay’s record includes competitive losses to Richmond and North Carolina State, alongside a notable win over Kansas State. The Phoenix have protected their home court, going 4-1 at the Resch Center this season. The matchup pits Youngstown State’s potent offense, averaging 73.1 points, against Green Bay’s disciplined defense. The Penguins will need to replicate their recent road success, while the Phoenix aim to control the tempo and leverage their home-court advantage. Sunday’s contest is the first of two regular-season meetings between the programs. Tipoff is scheduled for 2 p.m. EST.
