A&M forced nine turnovers while committing only four of their own in holding a 16-4 advantage in points off turnovers.I like where this team is right now, A&M coach Billy Kennedy said. Twenty assists with four turnovers -- youre going to win a lot of games with that no matter who you play.Hampton made 5 of 7 3-pointers, while the rest of his teammates made 2 of 19 from the 3-point line.

The Pioneers never threatened again.STAT OF THE NIGHTKennedy has said he intends for this type of team to slow things down and set up the offense through the big men, but at least on this night the Aggies held a 10-0 fast-break advantage.HE SAID ITThey just found me in the open spots. And whenever I get the ball I need to make it, so they can get me the ball again. -- Trocha-Morelos on making all six of his shots from the floor.RISING STARA wondrous Billups asked the A&M coaches afterward, Where did you all get Robert Williams?
