College Basketball: Split with the Aggies | Texas State Sports

February 1, 2013 · 12:38 am

Texas State’s basketball teams can’t get it together on the same night.

For the fourth time this season, the men and women split against a conference opponent. Thursday night it happened in games with New Mexico State. The men suffered an 86-72 loss at home, while the women broke a three-game losing streak with a 58-49 road win.

In San Marcos, the Bobcats didn’t get the usual production from junior forward Joel Wright and couldn’t gain any traction. Wright fouled out in 28 minutes with only 14 points on 3-of-18 shooting and only two other players scored in double figures (senior forward Matt Staff and junior forward Corey Stern). Staff had his best performance in a conference game all season, as he pumped in 20 points, grabbed 10 rebounds, dished four assists and nabbed two steals.

“Joel was unbelievable on the road and he struggled tonight,” head coach Doug Davalos said. “The sad part is, we didn’t have enough guys to pick him up on a struggling night.”

Texas State only made 24 of its 66 attempts and missed 21 shots in the paint. That wasn’t the case with the Aggies, as they shot 55.6 percent in the game and threw down several huge dunks (including a 360-degree slam by guard Daniel Mullings).

“We’re Division I basketball players and you got to finish plays,” Davalos said. “You got to finish layups. You got to get dunks. You got to go up athletic and we didn’t do that.”

In Las Cruces, N.M., the Bobcat women used a team-high 21 points from senior guard Diamond Ford and double-digit outputs from junior guard Jasmine Baugus and freshman guard Erin Peoples to hold off New Mexico State.

Baugus and Peoples combined to score 25 points and grab 28 rebounds, of which Baugus had 15 and 15. Peoples only had one foul in 34 minutes.

Both Texas State teams return to action Saturday afternoon against the University of Denver. The Pioneers swept the Bobcats earlier this season.

Men's basketball: FAU breaks three-game losing streak with 76-71 ...

It took nearly two weeks, but FAU has returned to the win column.

Led by a quintet of double-digit scorers, the Owls snapped a three-game losing skid in a 76-71 victory over Louisiana-Monroe on Thursday night at The Burrow.

It was FAU’s 11th win of the year, matching their total from all of last season, and felt especially good coming on the heels of an embarrassing 63-38 loss to Arkansas State.

“It was good to get that win,” Greg Gantt said. “We had been working hard all week in a lot of different aspects. We still didn’t play the way we would’ve liked in the defensive end, but a win is a win, and I’ll take it any day.”

Gantt and four other guards — Stefan Moody, Pablo Bertone, Richard Morrow, and Jackson Trapp — single-handedly carried the team, combining for 69 of the 76 total points.

The nation’s seventh-best scorer, Gantt had 19 points (on 8-19 shooting), once again leading the team in that department.

Moody (16 points) played with an incredible amount of hustle and knocked down more than half (5-of-9) of his field goals.

Bertone (13 points) drained 6-of-12 shots and added seven rebounds.

Morrow turned in his finest performance of the year, recording a double-double (11 points and a career-high 13 rebounds) and eliciting an encouraging response from his teammate.

“Dang!” Gantt exclaimed. “Shout-out to Rich. He’s working very hard in practice and his maturity level has changed so much. I’m so proud of him. It shows dedication, faith, and hard work can go anywhere.”

It was Trapp’s timely 10 points, however, that may have been the most important.

Trailing 63-58 with 5:49 remaining in the game, Trapp knocked down back-to-back 3-pointers to give the Owls a 64-63 advantage. Gantt added one of his own, propelling FAU on a 9-0 run which surged the squad through an up-and-down affair.

In total, FAU shot early and often, hitting on 28-of-62 field goal attempts (45 percent), and 7-of-20 3-point attempts (35 percent).

The Owls’ lackluster numbers made way for a 45-36 halftime deficit. When ULM closed out the half on a 10-1 run, FAU seemed destined for another defeat.

But FAU coach Mike Jarvis got creative, utilizing a four guard look for a majority of the game. It allowed the Owls to have extra speed on the floor, in turn outlasting a fatigued ULM club.

Gantt was a fan of the new formation.

“Much better for us,” Gantt said. “We were much harder to guard. I think it’s a plus for our team.”

Jarvis was less candid.

“We’ll see how it works on Saturday,” Jarvis said bluntly.

While FAU came out on top, there are still areas that need major improvement. Its bench (17 points) barely contributed, they committed 17 turnovers, and let the Warhawks shine with 36 points in the paint (most of which came off of 20 offensive rebounds).

Nevertheless, Jarvis continues to follow his one-game-at-a-time mantra as the Owls enter the home stretch of their schedule.

“I always say, ‘Winning begets winning, losing begets losing,’” Jarvis said. “It was a good win not only because of the three-game losing streak, but because we needed to win. Period.”

FAU returns to The Burrow to play Middle Tennessee on Saturday, Feb. 2 at 7 p.m.
