Seven-foot-1 center Alec Brown had 16 points, eight rebounds and five blocks for Green Bay (1-2) and Steve Baker added 16 points for the Phoenix.

Green Bay made six of its first seven field goal attempts to go up 13-6 at the 14:42 mark of the first half, but the Phoenix followed that with a miss and four straight turnovers as NDSU got rolling with a 9-0 run.

NDSU led 34-31 at halftime and went up by as many as seven points midway through the second half when a Felt 3-pointer gave the Bison a 46-39 lead with 12:28 to play.

Dylan Hale made two foul shots to put NDSU back in front, and Felt knocked down another triple after a Green Bay turnover to stretch the Bison lead to 59-55 at the 1:39 mark.

NDSU made 6 of 8 free throws from that point to up seven and the Phoenix got a 3-pointer from Baker at the buzzer for the final margin.

Green Bay had a 42-36 advantage in total rebounds, but committed 18 turnovers which led to 20 points for NDSU.  The Bison had a season-low eight turnovers.
