DURANT, Okla. -- Southeastern will finish off its exhibition schedule when it makes the relatively short trip to Denton, Texas, to face its third-straight division I opponent when it faces North Texas at 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 4.
The Savage Storm are 0-2 in its exhibition season so far with losses to Texas-San Antonio and Texas-El Paso, and following Monday's contest they will be eying the regular season opener on Nov. 9 at 7:30 p.m. in Bloomer Sullivan Arena against Science and Arts of Oklahoma.
The Mean Green come into the contest off a 78-70 win over Oklahoma City Univ. after trailing 35-34 at halftime.
SE opened the schedule with an 80-60 loss at UTSA and followed with a 91-63 loss at UTEP.
Despite falling in those contests, the Storm had some good signs heading into Monday's final precursor to the regular season, not the least of which has been the play of Urald King in his return to the floor.
King posted a double-double in his last outing with 13 points and 12 rebounds against the Miners, after posting a game high 16 points against the Roadrunners in the opener. He is shooting better than 50 percent from the floor and has averaged just 25 minutes in his first two games back.
He was the team's only double-digit scorer against UTSA, but Darius Harris and Quinton Threadgill each added nine points, while in the last outing Threadgill added 13 and Taylor Smaller chipped in 11.
UNT comes into the meeting off a 38.6 percent shooting night where Chris Jones turned in 16 points, while Jordan Williams added 12, Keith Coleman 11 and TJ Taylor had 10.
The Mean Green did allow the Stars to put three players in double figures in the contest.
