De Pere's Zach Kinziger makes homecoming, helps Wisconsin basketball beat UWGB

De Pere native Zach Kinziger returned home to play for the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay basketball team in their Oct. 15 win against UWGB, drawing a crowd of family and friends to the Resch Center. The sophomore guard finished the game with 6 points, 2 assists, and 1 block while shooting 2-of-3 from the field. Kinziger praised the experience, saying, "It was awesome to come back here and play here and see all the familiar faces in the stands."

This marks the first of two games where a Kinziger brother will face their hometown crowd; the brothers will next face off against Illinois State on Oct. 24. UWGB's Marcus Hall led the team with 19 points in the loss.
