Tylor Perry finished off North Texas' remarkable postseason run the only way that seemed appropriate on Thursday night. The senior guard hit a step-back jumper in the closing seconds to put away UAB in a 68-61 win in the final of the National Invitation Tournament at Orleans Arena. Perry came to UNT to play for Grant McCasland, one of the few coaches who believed in the undersized guard.
