No. 12 Texas vs. Houston Christian preview

Looking to build on the 72-57 win over the UTEP Miners to start the season, the No. 12 Texas Longhorns welcome the Houston Baptist Huskies to the Moody Center on Thursday evening.

Led by head coach Ron Cottrell, who has coached the Mustangs since 1990, Houston Christian enters the game 0-1 following a 77-66 loss to Florida International after turning the ball over 22 times. Guard Brycen Long led Houston Christian in scoring with 31 points on 11-of-14 shooting from the field, including 9-of-12 shooting from beyond the arc. No other players scored in double digits for the Huskies as the Panthers shot 50 percent from the floor and had four players score in double digits.
