LAWTON, Okla – Andrew Thomas “Country” gave Cameron a career high 19 points to lead the Aggies to their fifth Lone Star Conference game in a row on Saturday evening at the Aggie Gym.

The win for Cameron (9-5, 5-3 LSC) continued their success at home with seven game winning streak dating back to Jan. 25, 2012. 

Thomas “Country” added five rebounds and a block for the Aggies.  Tim Johnson added 12 points, five boards, and three assists, while Asaad Robinson chipped in 11.  Craig Foster had a quiet day on the offensive end but he had eight assists and four steals. 

Texas A&M Commerce (10-6, 3-3 LSC) who just defeated Midwestern State on Wednesday was unable to take a lead throughout the night.  The Lions were led by Preston Whitley who put together 15 points and four rebounds.

Cameron opened up the game on fire with a 10-0 over the Lions after Thomas “Country” hit a three and a pair of jumpers.   The Aggies controlled the ball for the majority of the half but the Lions would claw their way back toward the end of the half closing tailing CU by one.   Robinson hit a deep three-pointer with 1:15 left in the first half to help keep some distance from A&M-C, leading 33-28.

The Aggies in the first half hit 41.9 percent from the field (13-31) with five three pointers.  While A&M-C shot 33.3 percent from the field (9-27).

In the second half, Cameron jumped out to early 5-0 run extending their lead to 10 points and for much of the half that lead held en-route to the 65-51 win.

As a team, Cameron shot 42.1 percent from the field (24-57) and 50 percent from the arc (10-20).   Texas A&M-Commerce couldn’t find a rhythm offensively shooting 28.8 percent from the field (17-59) and hitting only three shots from downtown.  Additionally, for Cameron they dominated the second chance points with 18 compared to A&M-C’s six. 

The Aggie men will have a bye week before hosting a critical home-and-home series with Midwestern State on Jan. 23 at 8 p.m.
