The WKU men's basketball team was looking to go 2-0 on the season against the Mean Green of North Texas in their first game of the 2016 Conference USA tournament on Wednesday.
The Toppers got what they were looking for with a 84-76 victory over UNT, improving their record to 17-15.
WKU's freshmen and seniors both found ways to showcase their skills during the game.
Freshman point guard Chris McNeal dished out nine assists against the Mean Green defenders while also putting up nine points of his own.
“Chris was passing the ball, making the right passes,” sophomore forward Justin Johnson said.
