The diminutive point guard took decidedly different paths to two conference victories and came up huge each time.

On Saturday, when leading scorer Brian Hodges was sidelined by injury, Greene scored a career-high 26 points in a two-point decision at Vermont.

Today, the condition can be treated with surgery. .
