Cameron at the conference tournament:  The Aggies will look to be the spoiler this year at the LSC Championships in Allen, Texas.  Last season as the number two seed Cameron was upset by seven seeded West Texas A&M 65-50 in the quarterfinal.   Since 1990, Cameron is 3-10 with their last win coming in 2012 against Incarnate Word.  The Aggies have yet to make in the tournament finals in program history.  

This is Cameron's third straight postseason appearance and fifth since 2009.  The Aggies have faced every league school in the tournament field except for Tarleton State and Texas A&M Kingsville.  Cameron has played West Texas A&M the most (4 times) and twice against Texas A&M Commerce and Midwestern State.  Overall the Aggies are 1-2 inside the Allen Event Center.

Last time out for the Aggies: On senior night the Aggies came up just a bit short on Saturday night in a 74-71 loss to Midwestern State.  

Cameron had the ball with two seconds remaining but a Will Cook three-point attempt in front of the CU bench would miss off of the back iron at the buzzer.  

Craig Foster scored 1/3 of the Aggies points with 25 with 66% shooting on the floor and five shots from beyond the arc.  The Aggies did out-rebound the Mustangs 31 to 27 but in shooting MSU led 52% to Cameron 40%.  

The loss was Cameron's second in a row and they have dropped nine out of their last eleven contests heading into the LSC Tournament. 

The Foster File
Leading the LSC in minutes played per game (36.2)
#2 All-Time at Cameron in Assists (344)
929 Career Points 
#3 in the LSC in assists per game (4.6)
#9 in the LSC in points per game (15.1)
Most three-pointers made in a game in the LSC this season (8 at Texas A&M Commerce)

The Lead Cook
Top scorer at Cameron this season (16.1 ppg)
#3 in field goal percentage in the LSC (46.6%)
#3 in minutes played per game in the LSC (33.5)
#5 in rebounding in the LSC (6.0 rpg)
#6 in scoring in the LSC

On this date...on March 6 the Aggies are 0-1 overall; they played West Texas A&M at the LSC Tournament a year ago.  Cameron has never played on March 7 or 8 in program history.

A win for Cameron would mean...their fourth postseason win in the NCAA era and fourth trip to the LSC semifinals.

Making it 10: Cameron will be making their tenth overall appearance in the Lone Star Conference Tournament.  The Aggies appeared in the postseason in, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1998, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014.

Coming Up: Should Cameron win the opening round of the tournament they will play on Friday, March 7 at 2:30 pm.
