Former Mansfield Timberview star hits game-winner, sets Texas A&M single game record

Texas A&M freshman Chennedy Carter needed all of her single game school record 46 points on Friday night.

The former Mansfield Timberview standout hit the game-winning shot with 10.9 seconds left to give the Aggies a 75-74 road victory over USC, and improve their record to 9-2

She shot 17 of 28 from the field, hit four 3-pointers and added six assists in 37 minutes.

Carter broke the previous record held by Danielle Adams, who had 40 on Feb. 12, 2011 against Kansas.

“I feel like my teammates were a big part of me being successful in shooting tonight,” Carter said in a post game interview.

Carter was named the Star-Telegram girls basketball player of the year during the 2016-17 season. She helped the Wolves to a runner-up finish in the Class 5A state title game.

As a senior, she averaged 20.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 3.5 steals per game, and shot 53 percent from the floor, and was voted District 10-5A MVP.
