Texas Earns Seventh Win in a Row

Annissa Hastings scored 19 points to lead No. 11 Texas over Texas A&M;, 69-57, Wednesday night at College Station, Texas.

It was the seventh consecutive victory for the Longhorns, 20-7 overall and 13-3 in the Big 12 Conference, and kept alive their hopes of gaining at least a share of their third straight conference title.

A win tonight by No. 13 Texas Tech over No. 7 Baylor would put the Longhorns in a three-way tie with those teams. Baylor can win the conference title outright with a victory.

The Aggies are 14-13, 4-12.
