GREEN BAY'S LAST TIME OUT
The Phoenix took a trip to Cleveland State last weekend for a series with the Vikings. GB took three of the four games with the Ohio-based program, sweeping the first day of action before splitting a pair of one-run games.

LEADING THE LEAGUE
Green Bay is one of two programs with three individuals inside the conference's top 10 in batting average. Samantha Saloun leads the team at .380 and ranks fifth in the league. Tiffany Giese and Bailey Schultz own averages of .359 and .350, which rank eighth and 10th, respectively.

HOME SWEET HOME
The Phoenix has adjusted nicely to playing within the friendly confines of King Park, amassing an impressive record of 8-2 through three league series. Green Bay has welcomed Robert Morris, UIC and Purdue Fort Wayne to Green Bay and emerged with victories in each of the series.

SCOUTING PURDUE FORT WAYNE
Saturday will be Senior Day for the Purdue Fort Wayne softball program. The Mastodons have 28 home runs this season, which is second in the Horizon League, even despite playing fewer games than all of the League teams that are still competing. Purdue Fort Wayne split with Northern Kentucky on April 16 and 17, taking 1-0 and 3-1 wins over the Norse. After her performance, Shaina Eyre was named Horizon League Pitcher of the Week. 

SEASON AHEAD
This will be Green Bay's last road trip of the regular season, before the Phoenix returns home for the final series of the season against IUPUI. Green Bay will honor its lone senior, Bailey Schultz, next weekend against the Jagaurs.
