North Texas (7-9 2-4) fell tonight to the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders in Denton, TX. \u00a0The Mean Green struggled as costly turnovers kept the offense building any kind of momentum. \u00a0The Mean Green’s second leading scorer, Candice Adams<\/a> (11.7 ppg), had an off night only managing 4 points on 14 minutes of play. \u00a0In the post-game, Jalie Mitchell commented how the team feeds off of the energy Kelsey Criner provides during the game. \u00a0I am of the opinion that Adams is also a key leader to the team.<\/p>\n Tonight’s Player of the Game goes to both Acheil Tac<\/a> and Terra Ellison<\/a>, both scoring 11 points each. \u00a0Tac was 5 of 10 (50%) from the floor and 1 of 2 (50%) from the line with 8 Rebounds (4 Offensive; 4 Defensive) and a steal on 31 minutes of play. Tac was also the team’s leading rebounder. Ellison was 4 of 10 (40%) from the floor and 3 of 4 (75%) from the line with 1 offensive rebound while picking up a block and a steal on 39 minutes of play. \u00a0Also scoring double digits was Kelsey Criner<\/a> (12) and Bria Frierson<\/a> (10).<\/p>\n North Texas needs to put this game away and returns to action on Saturday, January 23rd at the SuperPit in Denton, TX at 2:00 PM.<\/p>\n
