AUSTIN, Texas (AP) --- Kyla Oldacre had a career-best 18 rebounds along with
five blocks and 10 points and No. 4 Texas routed Texas A&M 80-35 on Sunday to
end a a two-game losing streak.
Texas (19-2, 4-2 Southeastern Conference) pulled away for its 37th straight
home winby outscoring A&M 23-3 in the third quarter. The Aggies (8-6, 1-4) made
their only basket from the field with 10 seconds remaining after missing their
first 13 shots of the quarter and committing seven turnovers. Rori Harmon
scored 10 points in the quarter.
Freshman Aaliyah Crump, returning after missing 15 games with a foot injury,
led the Longhorns with 12 points to go with six rebounds and four assists in 21
minutes as a sub. Crump, one of the top-rated recruits in the country, averaged
13.2 points in five games as a starter before the injury.
Madison Booker had 10 points, six assists and four of the Longhorns' 14 steals.
Harmon made two steals and needs seven to break the Longhorns' career record
set by Linda Waggoner in 1980. Harmon, a senior, already set the career assists
mark at Texas this season.
Janae Kent scored 16 points for the Aggies, who shot just 17% and committed 25
turnovers against the Longhorns' pressure defense, full court and half. Texas
outscored A&M 48-10 in the paint.
The Longhorns did show a deficiency. They missed 17 of 18 3-pointers after
hitting just 1 of 9 in a 68-65 loss at No. 2 South Carolina on Thursday night.
Texas led 34-24 after an inefficient first half for both teams. The Longhorns
shot 37.5%, missing on all 10 of their 3-point attempts. The Aggies shot 26%
and committed 14 turnovers, eight of them steals by Texas.
