Player of the Game goes to Ja-Michael Brown who lead the team with 11 points and was the only player to get into double digits. He was 4 of 7 (57.1%) from the floor, missed his only 3-point shot, and was 3 of 4 (75%) from the Free Throw line. He also had 2 rebounds (1 Offensive and Defensive each), an Assist, and a Steal on 30 minutes of play.
The morale on the team can’t be good right now. North Texas has yet to notch their first conference win and the margin of loss since conference play began has been by an average of 14.4 points per game. Also, Free Throw shooting has been awful the past few games. In fact, it has been steadily declining since conference play has begun.
