Cosper, Jackson lead Arkansas past No. 13 Texas A&M, 67-61

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) Devin Cosper scored 18 points as Arkansas won for the first time over former coach Gary Blair with a 67-61 victory over No. 13 Texas A&M on Thursday night.

The win is the first in six tries against Blair for the Razorbacks (6-9, 1-1 Southeastern Conference), who were coming off a 53-point loss at No. 2 South Carolina.

Arkansas led by as many as 14 points early in the fourth quarter before the Aggies (11-4, 1-1) twice closed the lead to one point with less than a minute remaining.

Jessica Jackson, who finished with 17 points, and Cosper were perfect on free throws in the final minute to help seal the win.

Courtney Walker had 24 points to lead Texas A&M, which had its four-game winning streak snapped.
