Henry Coleman, Wade Taylor and Tyrece Radford lifted No. 12 Texas A&M over previously undefeated Penn State Thanksgiving afternoon at the ESPN Events Invitational.
The Nittany Lions, under first-year head coach Mike Rhoades, kept things close until the final minutes, when a difficulty to slow Coleman morphed into a complete inability to stop Henry Coleman.
The senior forward was everywhere against the Nittany Lions, especially late. He finished Thursday’s 89-77 win with 24 points, 5 rebounds and 1 steal on 8-11 shooting.
Taylor also had a great afternoon for the Aggies, dropping 23 points with 6 rebounds and a pair of assists on 8-13 shooting.

The Aggies are one of just 5 SEC teams that is still undefeated on the season, joining Alabama, South Carolina, Mississippi State and Ole Miss. Texas A&M has scored wins over Ohio State and SMU before downing the Nittany Lions.
The Aggies will play the winner of FAU/Butler on Friday.
