THE COLONY, Texas, March 19, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Although the Mean Green came up short against Kansas St. in the first round of the 2010 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, Pizza Inn still wants to make everyone in the Denton, TX area a winner.
Pizza Inn, Inc. , headquartered in Denton County Texas, would have offered a free medium cheese or medium pepperoni carry-out pizza had the Mean Green beaten Kansas State in the first round of the tournament. Instead, Pizza Inn will celebrate the Mean Green's great season record of 24-9 with a pizza buffet specially priced at $2.49 the entire day of Monday, March 22, 2010 at the chain's Denton location, located at 501 W. University Dr.
"Pizza Inn would like to congratulate the North Texas Men's Basketball team and their fans on a terrific season," said Adrian De La Garza, Corporate Marketing Manager of Pizza Inn, Inc. "We continue to support Mean Green Athletics and this deal celebrates the basketball team's amazing season."
With a 66-63 victory over Troy in the Sun Belt Conference Tournament Championship, North Texas won an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. It was the third appearance in school history and second in the last four years. The Mean Green established a school record for victories with 24 wins and carried an 11-game winning streak into the tournament.
"Any year a team makes it to the Big Dance, it is an unbelievable accomplishment," said De La Garza. "These young men worked hard all year and we at Pizza Inn hope they can make the tournament again in 2011."
