Meanwhile, Phoenix men face rugged test at Stanford

The Green Bay men’s basketball team will finally take the floor for its anticipated regular-season opener on Friday night at Stanford as part of the NIT Season Tip-Off. The game will tip at 8 p.m. CT (6 p.m. PT) at Maples Pavilion, marking both the debut for Head Coach Linc Darner and his team’s up-tempo style of play. The Phoenix (0-0) will face a Stanford (0-0) team coming off an NIT Championship in 2014-15, but one that has waved goodbye to its three top scorers from last year. WNFL-AM 1440 will carry the radio broadcast.
