NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Courtney Walker scored 22 points — her ninth 20-point game in league play — and No. 12 Texas A&M survived a scare from Vanderbilt to win 75-63 on Sunday.
Texas A&M (20-7, 10-4) registered its 11th straight 20-win season, extending the second longest such streak by a current member of the SEC. Aggie coach Gary Blair is 11th all-time with 25 20-win seasons.
Vanderbilt had upset on the mind and held a narrow lead for most of the game. Courtney Williams' jumper for the Aggies tied it at 49 with 8:10 to go, and Texas A&M turned it on in the fourth quarter, outscoring Vandy 32-16 to win its fifth in a row.
Williams finished with 10 points for Texas A&M, while SEC assists leader Jordan Jones had 11 helpers.
Vanderbilt (15-12, 4-10), which has lost seven in a row, was led by Morgan Batey with 15 points. Marqu'es Webb and Christa Reed added 12 points apiece.
