Lawton, TX - Texas A&M-Kingsville returns to the court on Saturday to take on Cameron University at the Aggies Gym.
The Javelinas (9-13, 5-11 Lone Star Conference) are coming off a 67-76 loss to Oklahoma Christian in which Texas A&M-Kingsville shot just 34.9 percent from the floor and committed 11 turnovers. Now the Javelinas get a chance to avenge a previous loss this season against the Aggies (8-14, 5-11 LSC).
In their previous matchup, Texas A&M-Kingsville fell in a heartbreaking 86-91 OT loss.
Isaiah Payne and
Allen Singleton scored a combined 40 points, and
Nate Lacewell had a chance to win it at the buzzer, but the shot rolled out of the basket just as time expired.
A key to evening the score with Cameron will be how the Javelinas handle the play of Aaron Jacob. Jacob scored a career-best 27 points in the previous matchup, and has scored 20-or-more points five times this season while also pulling down five rebounds a game.
For Javelinas, the play of forward
Daniel Sanchez off the bench has been a key factor this season. Sanchez has averaged 5.4 points per game this season while also grabbing 3.3 rebounds per game. He has scored in double figures three times this season while securing 5-or-more rebounds five times.
