GREEN BAY, Wis. (Interstat) — The Green Bay Phoenix look to rebound from their first loss in nearly three weeks when they face the Richmond Spiders in a neutral-site women’s basketball game Friday in Cancún, Mexico.

The non-conference matchup at Poliforum Benito Juarez pits two teams with strong early-season records. Green Bay is 5-2, while Richmond enters at 5-1.

The Phoenix are coming off a 79-67 home loss to North Carolina State on Thursday. Gracie Grzesk scored a team-high 23 points in the defeat, with Jenna Guyer adding 15. Prior to that, Green Bay had won four straight, including a 47-44 defensive victory over Kansas State.

Richmond last played on Nov. 23, defeating Navy 69-56. Forward Maggie Doogan recorded a double-double with 17 points and 14 rebounds in that win, and guard Ally Sweeney nearly had one as well, finishing with 16 points and eight assists. The Spiders’ only loss this season was an 85-56 defeat at Texas on Nov. 7.

Friday’s contest is the first of a 10-game stretch for Green Bay before Horizon League play resumes in January. Richmond continues its non-conference slate before beginning Atlantic 10 competition at the end of December.
