Today’s game saw two players tie with 19 points, so we’re going to take a look at the total stats sheet and give Player of the Game honors to J-Mychal Reese. He was 5 of 9 (55.5%) from the floor, made his one 3-point shot, and made all 8 of his free throws while picking up 5 defensive rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals on 38 minutes of action.

There were four Mean Green players in double digits this afternoon. Your other three players were Shane Temara (19), Ryan Woolridge (13), and Derail Green (10).

Up next for the Mean Green in this four game homestand is Louisiana Tech on Thursday, February 23rd at 7:00 PM at the SuperPit. This will be the second meeting of these two teams where North Texas fell to the Bulldogs 81-57.

North Texas is still in the hunt to make the Conference USA Tournament but is 2.5 games behind Southern Miss, who is the last team into the tournament.
