In the Horizon League was a game that could rival Indiana-Iowa in terms of a dramatic finish. UIC led Green Bay 39-20 at the half, and early in the second half it didn’t look like Green Bay was going to make it a ballgame. Over five minutes in, they still led 47-31, but then the Phoenix scored 11 unanswered points, and still down 60-53 with 3:05 left, scored the next ten points and then held off UIC at the end for a 63-62 win that puts them a game up on the host Flames at 9-6.

Horizon League: Wright State holds a one game lead with two to play over Northern Kentucky, but both are tough roadies against Milwaukee and Green Bay. Northern Kentucky has an equally (literally) challenging slate ahead, with road games against Green Bay and Milwaukee on tap.

The Horizon League once again tinkered with its bracket. That’s undoubtedly due to the recent struggles of top four seeds, who managed to go a combined 3-5 in the 10-team, split-quarterfinal doubleheader setup employed in 2017 and 2018. So in 2019, the ninth- and 10th-place teams are out, as was the case in 2015 and 2016. Plus, only the semifinals and final will take place at Detroit’s Little Caesars Arena. (It’s also the final year of Motor City Madness; the tournament heads to Indianapolis next season.) The top four seeds will instead host the quarterfinals on March 5th and 6th (according to the bracket). I’m guessing that the quarters will be split again, with the top two seeds playing on the 5th and the third and fourth playing on the 6th, but neither the schedule or bracket make this clear.

They are currently three games back with three games to go, so either scenario would eliminate them.
