Northern Iowa men host Green Bay Tuesday night

Northern Iowa basketball coach Kyle Green says the Panthers need to improve their transition defense as they get set to host Green Bay Tuesday night. UNI is coming off a 98-83 loss at Furman.

In that game the Panthers were whistled for 27 fouls and Furman attempted 44 free throws.

Green Bay is 2-1. Their lone loss was at Cincinnati and they are coming off a Sunday win at St. Thomas of Minnesota.

Green says the Phoenix will provide a tough challenge.
