Men’s Basketball Falls To North Texas

DENTON, TX.-  Junior Nicholas Jones scored a career-high 17 points, but it was not enough as North Texas defeated the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff 86-53, Saturday at the Super Pit in non-conference action. 

Both squads traded buckets early in the first half before the Mean Green pushed their lead to double digits as the first half expired with a 41-24 lead.

UAPB came out shooting better in the second half going 11-for-21 from the field at 52%, but it was not enough in the comeback against North Texas.
