A&M Beat: Aggies still aiming for NCAA tourney

Aggies still aiming for NCAA tourney

COLLEGE STATION ? Senior guard Elston Turner said Texas A&M, at 15-9 overall and 5-6 in the Southeastern Conference, is still clinging to its original objective.

?Ultimately our goal is to make the NCAA tournament,? said Turner, who scored a men's Reed Arena-record 37 points in the Aggies' 69-67 win over Ole Miss on Wednesday.

The Aggies are on the road for their next two contests, at Vanderbilt on Saturday and Auburn on Wednesday.

?We're going to try and put two wins together,? A&M coach Billy Kennedy said. ?We haven't done that in a while.?

The Aggies opened SEC play with victories over Arkansas and Kentucky before dropping their next four. They've since alternated wins and losses.

Baseball: The Aggies open their season tonight at Blue Bell Park with the first of a three-game series against Illinois-Chicago. First pitch is set for 6:35 p.m., with senior Kyle Martin starting on the mound for A&M.

The Aggies finished 43-18 last season but didn't make it out of NCAA regional play.
