Aggies knock off No. 6 Duke 95-77 Eds: APNewsNow. Texas A&M 95, No. 6 Duke 77.

By KRISTIE RIEKEN AP Sports Writer COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) Danielle Adams scored 24 points in her Texas A&M debut and the Aggies stunned No. 6 Duke 95-77 on Sunday.

The Aggies (1-0) took the lead near the midway point of the first half and didn't trail again. Despite poor shooting, the Blue Devils (1-1) cut the lead to three points with about 14 minutes remaining, but the Aggies scored 10 straight points to make it 65-52 and Duke didn't threaten again.

Adams scored seven points in that span, including a nifty off-balance layup which she turned into a three-point play.

The win improved Texas A&M's all-time record against the Blue Devils to 3-0. This was the first meeting between the schools since a 77-63 win by the Aggies in the round of 16 in the 2008 NCAA tournament.
