FINAL RECORD
14-16, 9-9, tied for fourth in Horizon League.

WHAT WENT RIGHT
The Panthers ranked second in the conference in rebounding margin (plus-2.6) and were 14-6 when they either won or tied the battle of the boards. They rallied from double-digit, second-half deficits to win four times, including a 66-56 defeat of Green Bay on Feb. 16 that completed a season sweep of their in-state rivals.

WHAT WENT WRONG
An 18-man roster was sliced in half by March. Avery Smith and Torre Johnson were dismissed; Roman Gentry, Kevin Johnson and Tim Flowers left the team; Joe Allen and Zach Holt were hurt during the preseason; and Marcus Skinner missed the last three games with a high ankle sprain. The Panthers shot a Horizon-worst 38.8 percent from the field during league play.

QUOTE TO NOTE
"We've pulled together as a team. It might only be 11 guys, but we are a team. That's the one thing I want people to understand and talk about. Enough of the other stuff. We are a team and there are guys in that locker room that want to represent Milwaukee to the best of their abilities, and that's what I'm most proud of." -- Milwaukee head coach Rob Jeter.
