The North Texas men's basketball team (1-1) returns home to face UNC Wilmington (1-0) tonight in the first of three consecutive games at the Super Pit. The Mean Green also plays on Saturday against Lamar at 7 pm. Dating back to last season, North Texas has won its last four games at the Super Pit. Every regular-season North Texas game can be heard live on KWRD (100.7 FM) in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
Tonight's game between North Texas and UNC Wilmington will be the first-ever meeting between the two schools. North Texas’ game against UNC Wilmington will be just the third time the Mean Green has ever faced an opponent from the Colonial Athletic Association. NT is 1-1 in its previous two games, defeating Virginia Commonwealth 89-72 in 1975-76 and falling 77-82 against William & Mary in 1958-59.
North Texas fell to 18th-ranked Alabama on Sunday in its first road game of the season, while the Seahawks won its season opener last Friday with a 58-57 victory over Marshall at its home arena, the Trask Coliseum.
