Rashaun Agee produced a game-high 21 points and 13 rebounds to lead Texas A&M to an 81-73 win over Pitt on Tuesday in an ACC/SEC Challenge game at Pittsburgh.

Pitt took its first lead by scoring the first four points of the second half – triggering what would turn out to be a topsy-turvy 20 minutes.

The Aggies responded by going on a 22-8 run to take a 57-45 lead on Dominguez’s 3-pointer with 11:55 to play.

Pittsburgh answered with 13 points in a row to seize a 61-57 lead with 6:23 to play.

The Aggies appeared to take complete control of the game after Pitt took the lead with a 19-8 run to lead 56-43.

Dominguez, however, followed with his fourth 3-pointer to spark a 13-0 run that gave the Panthers a 61-57 lead with 6:23 left. Damarco Minor sparked it with a pair of free throws and Indrusaitis capped the spree 4:26 later with a 3-pointer.

The Aggies came right back when Zach Clemence converted a 3-point play. When Jacari Lane drove for a layup and then made a steal and dished to Rylan Griffin for another layup, Texas A&M took a 64-63 lead it would not relinquish.

The Aggies led throughout the first half, but the Panthers would not go away.

Pop Isaacs gave Texas A&M a 14-5 lead with 14:05 left in the first half, but the Panthers went on an 8-0 run to cut it to one and keep it close the rest of the half.

Marcus Hill scored on a layup with 7:19 to go to give the Aggies a 26-20 lead.

Dunning took over from there, scoring a layup and then dunking off an Indrusaitis pass to cut the lead to 28-27 with 4:57 left in the half.

Agee and Dunning then started trading baskets as Agee dunked a Hill pass to get the Aggies lead back to 30-27. Dunning answered with his own dunk, then Agee followed with a layup on the way to a 35-33 halftime edge.
