COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) – Kayla Wells had a season-high 21 points and Jordan Nixon made a layup with eight seconds remaining to lift No. 7 Texas A&M to a 69-67 win over No. 16 Arkansas on Sunday.
“I’m worn out. It seems like we’ve had so many of these close ball games,” Texas A&M coach Gary Blair said. “I’ve got to trust my veterans down the stretch to make plays and they’ve been doing it.”
A 3-pointer by Amber Ramirez tied it at 67-all with less than 90 seconds to go. Both teams missed a shot on their next possession before Nixon drove into the lane for the basket to put the Aggies up for good.

LAST TIME OUT
It was a tough loss for the Razorbacks (10-4, 1-3) in Bud Walton Arena on Sunday afternoon, as the Hogs came up just short against No. 8 Texas A&M (12-0, 3-0), 74-73, in an instant classic.
Aggie guard Jordan Nixon banked a floater off the glass with 0.4 seconds on the clock to ultimately seal the win for A&M.
The Hogs were as balanced as they had been all season against the undefeated Aggies, and were once led by redshirt senior guard Chelsea Dungee, who nearly willed Arkansas to a win.
She scored 21 points in the game, making six of her 15 shots, five of which were from long range.
