Phoenix men plan viewing party for Tuesday’s NCAA tennis pairings

Congratulations again to the Green Bay men’s tennis team on winning the Horizon League championship and qualifying for the program’s second NCAA tournament appearance in three seasons. Coach Mark Thomas and his team will learn their opening-round assignment Tuesday afternoon. (A selection-show viewing party will take place at the Kress Events Center’s Special Events Room for the 4 p.m. CDT announcement on www.NCAA.com) The Phoenix was sent to Malibu (Pepperdine U) two years ago, and with this year’s Top 25 dominated by West Coast and Sun Belt schools (along with some Big Ten programs), a warm-weather trip is again a possibility.
