[geezer]

Women and men take on East Texas A&M this afternoon and evening.  Ladies look to keep their clean conference record going and men look to improve their record.  Ladies tipoff at 3 PM.

Ladies game starts out close for the first five minutes, but then the Cards take control for a 24-16 lead at the end of the first quarter.

[geezer]

Basically, an even game in the second quarter with ETAM outscoring Lamar by one, but with Lamar holding a 39-32 halftime lead.  Lamar taking care of the ball fairly well with five turnovers but giving up too many three-point shots as ET has six made attempts.

Lamar outscores Lions by five points in the third quarter to take a 65-53 lead into the fourth quarter.

[geezer]

Men start out very slowly, only four points in the first ten minutes of the game on 2-12 shooting.  Lamar getting out played again against the last place team in the conference. Must turn this around quickly.  Down 13-4.

[geezer]

Men down by four points at the half after being down by as many as eleven earlier in the half.  Hamilton only played seven minutes picking up two fouls.  Cardinals turn the ball over twelve times and shooting just 33%.  Fortunately, ETA&M isn't shooting much better at 36%.
