This is a solid win. It’s always fun to beat Green Bay, and I know it may be unfair to feel this way, but it’s great to beat a player who left our program for theirs. I wasn’t able to watch the game (I really miss the Horizon League Network) but it sounded like the Panthers were in pretty good control most of the second half. Green Bay had a stretch of threes in there but Milwaukee was able to answer enough of those. Green Bay went a 7-1 run to cut the lead down to three. I thought Green Bay was going to pull it out. The game certainly did get interesting when it was down to a point or two difference, but I think that kind of proves my point. While the 7-1 run wasn’t good, it wasn’t unusual and it didn’t turn into a 15-3 run or anything like that. The Panthers were able to answer the mini run. They never relinquished the lead and I think Green Bay has only one shot that would have tied it if it went in.

In Lucas and Roy it looks like we have two of the top five players in the league. They are getting used to playing with each other, and PB is getting used to coaching with both of them on the court. These two can do real damage in the HL.
BTW, I’m doing my part. I’ve worn my Panther half zip for the last three game days. I’ve found my lucky uniform!

Great game! Had sunshine the entire drive down from the north country. PB came into the stands and thanked us for coming after the game, which my 7 yr old found pretty cool for his first ever game, and I was not expecting. Very nice.
Have to keep things rolling against the Detroit schools next weekend. We were 3-2 last season, too...

This WIN is big guys!!!!!!! This is the best we played as a TEAM all year. 1st thing I noticed we shared the ball the bigs were eating in the inside I absolutely Love it!!!!!!! We rebounded the ball today this is the best we rebounded all season not giving the other team second chance points!!!!! ( but we still need to improve) We didn’t take a lot of bad shots which was also HUGE!!!!!!! But the main thing is WE played with the LEAD which shows we controlled the game Finally!!!!!! Feels GOOD to WIN Panther Fans. Let’s keep the train rolling,

Just FYI in case anyone was interested. Ride up today was 100% normal and harmless. Ride home (went 41), not a flake of snow all day in GB or on the highway until well south of Fond du Lac. I was dreading this one because of the forecast. A win and an easy ride home? Great day. Go Panthers!

The bandwagon was emptied, refurbished and completely cleaned. There is plenty of room for anyone to jump on it, including return riders (well, maybe not every return rider😉).

"I thought our defense was good and the star of the game," Baldwin said. "They are a high-octane offense, so we had to do a great job in containing them and making every shot and opportunity difficult for them. Our guys did a great job defending them in the first half."
On Lucas: He stepped up big," Baldwin said. "And that is the moment you need. We have two really good players that can handle the ball and make plays in Te'Jon and Darius and both of those guys made plays late."
With a team like Green Bay, it's going to be difficult to keep them down," Baldwin said. "They put pressure on us late and we weathered the storm. Darius making that three was good for us and our guys showed a lot of toughness late in the game to close this out."

In answer to concerns voiced on the Green Bay message board, maybe UWM and IUPUI aren't the bottom?!

Things are starting to get interesting. Saw that UIC beat Wright State last night? Almost anyone can win this thing including us.
