First Half


The first half saw both teams battling for control, but it was the Aggies who took an early lead. With a strong performance from Marcus Hill, who shot a perfect field goal percentage and contributed significantly with his scoring and assists, Texas A&M managed to secure a comfortable advantage by halftime. The team ended the first half with 56 points against the Lions' 35.

The Aggies' bench also made significant contributions, adding depth and energy that overwhelmed East Texas A&M's defense. With an impressive field goal percentage of 65 percent overall and shooting at 50 percent from beyond the arc, they extended their lead further.


Key Performances


Rashaun Agee stood out with his remarkable efficiency on both ends of the court. His scoring ability was complemented by his defensive efforts including blocks and steals that kept the Lions at bay. Mackenzie Mgbako also made notable contributions in rebounds and assists which helped maintain possession for long stretches during critical moments.


Lions' Efforts
