Ray Turner scored 16 points to lead Texas A&M to an easy 56-44 victory over visiting Alcorn State on Wednesday night.

Forward David Loubeau added 14 points for the Aggies (5-1), who won their 64th consecutive non-conference game at Reed Arena despite a dreadful outside shooting performance.

Twenty of Texas A&M’s first 24 field goals came in the paint, and the Aggies finished 0-of-17 from 3-point range.

Freshman KeDorian Sullivan led Alcorn State (1-6) with 11 points off the bench. No starter for the Braves scored more than five points.

Texas A&M ended the first half on a 22-5 run to take a 30-17 halftime lead. During the spurt, Dash Harris had a nifty fake behind-the-back pass and layup on a fast break that gave the Aggies their first double-digit lead at 24-14.

The second half was ugly for Texas A&M, though, as the team went without a field goal for a stretch of almost six minutes late in the game.
