Lamar Cardinals at Texas A&M Aggies
· NCAA Men's BasketballPhelps leads No. 23 Texas A&M to 97-71 win over Lamar

Henry Coleman III added 13 points for the Aggies (2-1), who dropped 10 spots in the AP Top 25 poll this week. But they have won consecutive games over Lamar and East Texas A&M after opening the season with a 64-61 loss at UCF.
Alexis Marmolejos led Lamar (1-1) with 23 points.
Phelps is an SMU transfer who has led the Aggies in scoring in their last two games after missing the opener with a hand injury.
Texas A&M shot 55.2% from the floor, including 12 for 26 (46%) from 3-point range, and sixth-year coach Buzz Williams earned his 350th career victory. He is 350-218 over 18 seasons.
Lamar: The Cardinals’ previous game was a 71-point home victory over Paul Quinn College on Nov. 4, which didn't really prepare Lamar for its road opener at an SEC opponent. After shooting 56.1% from the field against Paul Quinn, the Cardinals finished at 37.5% versus the Aggies.
Texas A&M hosts No. 21 Ohio State on Friday night.
