House is the second-leading scorer for the 6-2 Cougars, averaging 15.6 points to go with 5.7 rebounds. He was the team’s third-leading scorer a season ago when he averaged 12.4 ppg.
The loss is a huge blow to a Houston team that dropped its first two games of the season last week, and which is headed to Texas A&M for an in-state showdown on Thursday. The Cougars will begin their first season as a member of the American Athletic Conference when they host No. 12 Connecticut on New Year’s Eve.
