COLLEGE STATION, Texas - Despite evenly distributed scoring among the six Cyclones that played, Iowa State fell victim to Texas A&M's aggressive defense with 20 turnovers to fall 64-53 in College Station Sunday afternoon. The win was Texas A&M's second in the 13-game series and handed ISU its third consecutive loss.
Both teams struggled offensively in the first half, with TAMU hitting 30.8 percent from the field and ISU sinking just 27.6 percent of its shots. Of the Cyclones' eight field goals, five were 3-pointers, including two from freshman Heather Ezell off the bench.
Texas A&M (21-7, 10-5) led most of the way, but Iowa State (15-11, 6-9) used solid defense and rebounding to take the lead for a three-minute stretch midway through the first half. The Cyclones knotted the score (23-23) at 3:49 with an 8-0 run. Four ISU turnovers over the final minutes allowed the Aggies a 27-25 lead at the break.
Brittany Wilkins scored Iowa State's first three baskets to start the second half, but Texas A&M got 10 points from Danielle Gant in the first seven minutes, including eight points during a 15-0 Aggie run to extend its lead.
The Aggies' top-ranked defense kicked in, forcing costly ISU turnovers. TAMU's offense responded as well, finishing with 21 points off Cyclone turnovers and 20 second-chance points. Texas A&M shot 45.7 percent from the floor in the second stanza.
Iowa State got 10 of its final 12 points over the final 6:27 from the free-throw line, taking advantage of 11 trips to the charity stripe and pulling within nine (62-53) with 1:31 left. Wilkins and Lisa Bildeaux led Iowa State with 12 and 11 points, respectively, while three others tallied nine. Texas A&M got a game-high 18 points from A'Quonesia Franklin.
