COLLEGE STATION- No. 16 Texas A&M hosts LSU in an SEC women's basketball game Monday, January 22 inside Reed Arena at 6 p.m. It is the Aggies' We Back Pat game, as part of a SEC-wide initiative to bring awareness and recognition to the Pat Summitt Foundation. In addition, hot dogs are just $1 from any concession stand.
The game is available on SEC Network, with Brenda VanLengen and Carol Ross on the call. Authenticated subscribers can access a stream of the game on WatchESPN and the ESPN app through their computers, mobile phones, tablets, smart TVs and other connected devices. Tom Turbiville and Tap Bentz bring listeners the call on The Zone 1150 AM/102.7 FM in Bryan-College Station and on the web at 12thMan.com.
The Aggies (15-5, 4-2 SEC) are coming off of a 73-54 win at Alabama, and have not lost a game in regulation in 2018, going 4-1 in that span. Texas A&M was rewarded for their 15-5 start to the season with a No. 14 ranking by the NCAA Division I Selection Committee on Thursday, putting the Aggies in position to host the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament.
Khaalia Hillsman has been on a tear for the Aggies, posting four straight double-doubles and scoring 20+ points in four of her last five games. She is averaging 18.6 points and shooting 66.9% from the field since December 6. The senior had 20 points, 10 rebounds and matched a career-high with five blocks against Alabama on Thursday.
Chloe Jackson has led the Lady Tigers (12-5, 4-2 SEC) in SEC play, averaging 22.0 points per game, scoring at least 20 in five of her six conference games. The Lady Tigers are 1-1 against ranked teams in SEC play, defeating No. 15 Missouri 69-65 on Jan. 4, but falling to No. 5 Mississippi State 83-70 on Jan. 7.
LSU and Texas A&M have split the previous 22 games in the series, but the Aggies lead 7-3 in SEC games, and have won the last four meetings in College Station. Last season, the home team won each matchup, with the games being decided by a combined six points.
After this game, the Aggies return to action on Sunday, January 28 at Vanderbilt. The Aggies next home game is Sunday, February 4 against Auburn.
