HONORABLE MENTION: REMAINING CONFERENCE AWARDS

HORIZON LEAGUE: GREEN BAY - The Phoenix are on an ever-windy rollercoaster ride across the Horizon League. Last week was a fun one. Green Bay won at Northern Kentucky in an OT bonanza and handled Detroit Mercy at home to land in 3rd place by the end of the week. CJ O'Hara went for 23 points and three key steals in the win at NKU. Green Bay leads the Horizon League in eFG% and free-throw percentage. There is legitimate hope at this point for a postseason run.

Green Bay: 15-0

Green Bay has already secured the #1 seed in the Horizon League tournament and a share of the Horizon League title by virtue of beating Youngstown State twice. Youngstown State could share the title by winning their last five and Green Bay losing their last five. Not going to happen.

Meaningful Games to Watch This Week

2-11: Green Bay @ Cleveland State

Let's go with this one. A Green Bay win would give them sole ownership of the Horizon League title.
