GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) ---The Green Bay volleyball team (19-7, 11-3 HL) heads into the final weekend of the regular season with matchups against two top-four seeds in the Horizon League.

Thursday's match against UIC will be Green Bay's final home match of the regular-season.  Additionally, it is senior night for Emily Lautenschlager and Maddie Yoss.  The two seniors will be honors with a pregame ceremony.

The Phoenix will then conclude the regular-season on the road against in-state rival, Milwaukee.  That match will be streamed on ESPN3 and is available for viewing on the Green Bay volleyball schedule page.

A Closer Look at UIC:  The Flames sit at 20-8 on the season and 9-5 in Horizon League action.  This past weekend, they suffered an away loss at Wright State, but followed up with a home victory over Cleveland State.  Freshman middle blocker Michelle Glover is second in the conference in hitting percentage at .303, and leads UIC offensively with 246 kills.  As a team, the Flames lead the conference in total-blocks.  In Green Bay's first matchup with UIC in Chicago, the Phoenix won in five sets to open up their Horizon League campaign.

A Closer Look at Milwaukee:  The Panthers currently stand at 23-5 overall this season and 10-4 in the Horizon League, which puts them right behind Green Bay.  Milwaukee dropped their last two matches in conference play to Oakland and Northern Kentucky, which are their first back-to-back losses in 2019.  Junior middle blocker Carmen Heilemann leads the Panthers in kills, kills per set and hitting percentage.  Defensively, sophomore Jess Grabowski is second in the Horizon League in total-digs with 520.  Green Bay will look to seek revenge this Saturday since Milwaukee defeated the squad at the Kress Center back in September.

Matchup Information:  Thursday (November 14^th) vs. UIC 6:00 p.m. CT // Saturday (November 16^th) at Milwaukee 4:00 p.m. CT
