MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — Senior Antonio Green led Middle Tennessee on a furious late comeback Thursday in the Murphy Center, but the hole was simply too large to climb completely out of.
Green buried four straight 3-pointers to lead the Blue Raiders (6-18, 2-9) on a 13-0 run with just a few minutes remaining, but the Mean Green (15-9, 9-2) absorbed the punches and limped home with a 75-70 win.
