COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) - Chennedy Carter scored 22 points and N'dea Jones posted a double-double to lead No. 11 Texas A&M to an 85-48 victory over Texas A&M-Corpus Christi on Sunday.

Carter reached double figures for the 52nd consecutive game and has surpassed 20 points in 11 games so far in her junior season.

Jones scored 13 points to go with 16 rebounds for her 13th career double-double and third this season. Kayla Wells added 17 points and Ciera Johnson 16 for the Aggies (12-1), who won their seventh in a row and improved to 8-0 at home. They go to No. 20 Arkansas for their SEC opener Thursday.

A 12-0 run erased an early Islanders run with the Aggies jumping out to a 21-7 first-quarter lead and going up 42-21 at halftime. The Aggies led by as many as 40 in the fourth quarter.

Alexes Bryant and Alecia Westbrook scored 11 points each for the Islanders (8-4), who had a four-game win streak end.
