A third of the way through their conference season, the North Texas women’s basketball team has an overall record of 8-10 and a Conference USA record of 2-4. The Mean Green just recently snapped a four-game losing streak on Saturday at home against Louisiana Tech in overtime, giving them their second win in conference play this season.

“I feel like we’re finally at a place where we’re comfortable and confident,” head coach Jalie Mitchell said. “[The team] understands our responsibility, so I’m excited we were able to pull this last one out after dropping a few close ones.”

North Texas had a tight chance to win its four conference losses this season. The Mean Green also had a rotation of eight players in the first two conference games, which did not include their leading scorer and rebounder, senior post player Anisha George.

“I’m excited about this team going forward,” Mitchell said. “We were in a few close games, but we’ve got our leading scorers and rebounders down low back. Obviously, people who are important statistically to your team will make a difference, but that’s not an excuse. We are just trying to learn from the opportunities we weren’t able to capitalize on.”

Mitchell believes to improve the team’s play will involve further communication and reliance on teammates.
