Texas A&M Basketball

Overcoming shooting woes, A&M takes 75-65 victory

The final margin doesn't tell the story — or does it? The Aggies opened a 21-point second-half lead against visiting Prairie View and won by 10, but the focus after the game fell on what led to a late Panther run.

Texas A&M coach Billy Kennedy could feel good about the Aggies' defense, their ability to get the free throw line and, of course, a 75-65 college basketball victory over Prairie View on Tuesday night.

Yet, the dominant postgame emotion was frustration from poor three-point shooting and a rash of turnovers that turned a would-be blowout into closely-contested struggle.

Alex Caruso scored 15 points to lead A&M (4-0), which also got 12 points from Shawn Smith, Antwan Space and Jamal Jones.
