WICHITA, Kan. – Wichita State trailed by 17 at halftime, but held North Texas to 12 second half points to complete a 57-53 come-from-behind win over the Mean Green Saturday afternoon in Charles Koch Arena.

Wichita State (3-1) looked like two completely different teams in the two halves. After allowing 41 first half points, a season high, Wichita State went to a trapping zone defense. That defense held North Texas to 4-of-27 from the field and just 12 points after halftime.

The 17-point comeback is the largest of the Keitha Adams era, besting a 16-point comeback on Jan.
