DENTON, Texas- After a road loss to ULM on Thursday, the North Texas women's basketball team is trying to protect the home court as they face Arkansas State tonight at the Super Pit. The game-time is set for 4:30 p.m as the Mean Green looks for their second straight home win.

Arkansas State enters the game after a nine-point loss on the road at Denver on Wednesday night.
