WBB: UWGB at YSU Sa 01/09 @ 4:30 pm
« on: January 08, 2016, 10:11:14 AM »
UWGB (12-2 / 2-0 / RPI # 10 ) visits YSU (12-2 / 3-0 / RPI  # 77) as two of the three teams undefeated in league play match up (WSU is also undefeated at 3-0).  UWGB leads the HL in scoring defense, and 3 point FG%.

The only common opponent this season so far is UWM, whom both teams defeated, although UWGB by a much larger margin.

UWGB has defeated Whisky, Vanderbilt, Marquette, Tulane, and Dayton amongst their OOC wins.

Massey gives YSU a 13 % chance of winning and predicts a score of 52-65.

For UWGB, Tesha Buck leads the HL in 3 point FG %.

For YSU, Sarah Cash leads the HL in FG% and Indiya Benjamin leads the HL in assists (both are sophomores).

From greenbayphoenix.com:

"This will be the 36th meeting between the Phoenix and the Penguins, with Green Bay owning a large advantage, 32-3, in the all-time series. Although the advantage heavily favors the Phoenix, recent history has seen more balanced outcomes. Green Bay has won three-consecutive games against YSU, but lost the two prior to that, bringing Green Bay’s record to 3-2 in the last five matchups. Two of Green Bay’s three victories over Youngstown State last season were by more than 20 points."

Final: 68-60 UWGB

A smaller MOV than any HL or even BIG team UWGB has played.
