Aggies Improve to 7-0

COLLEGE STATION, TX -- The Texas A&M Aggies started slowly Tuesday night versus the undersized North Texas Mean Green; but, the #5 / #10 Aggies took care of business in a HUGE way and routed UNT 108 to 49 in front of 3,144 fans gathered inside Reed Arena.

Aggies junior post Danielle Adams socred an easy layup to put the Aggies ahead for good 10 to 9.

The only suspense after halftime was not the final score but the health status of Aggies players.
During the first half, Adams drew an offensive foul on UNT's Tamara Torru and fell to the court and hit her head. Adams suffered a slight concussion; and, she did not return to the game.

Colson stayed on the court a few minutes in obvious pain to everyone inside Reed Arena. Colson was helped to the bench and then she was taken to see a doctor.
The status of the injury is not yet known. More will be known Wednesday.
