COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) — PJ Haggerty tallied 22 points, Josh Irving had 14 points and 10 rebounds, and Texas A&M defeated Oklahoma State 88-69 on Thursday night. The Aggies (4-0), who received votes in the Week 1 AP Top 25, have held their opponent under 70 points in each of their games this season. They allowed Oklahoma State to connect on just 30% of their shot attempts and 20% from deep. Jordan Pope and Zach Clemence also scored 14 points each, and Pope had a team-high six assists. Jalen Shelley had seven rebounds. A back-and-forth contest saw neither team lead by more than eight points until there was 2:19 remaining in the first half. A&M built a 13-point edge heading into halftime, and used two late 7-point second-half runs to pull away. The Aggies led for 36:07 of game time. Anthony Felesi and Kanye Clary each had 14 points for the Cowboys (2-1), and Felesi grabbed eight rebounds. The Aggies have won six of the last nine matchups between the two programs, but Oklahoma State has the historical edge, 33-19, over their former Big 12 rival. Nonprofit local news isn't free!
