The games between the TexAnns and Texans versus Abilene Christian in Abilene have been postponed to tomorrow night, Wednesday, Jan. 28 due to the inclement weather here in our part of Texas.
The roads are supposed to get slick, and both Tarleton and the Stephenville schools are getting out early on Tuesday to hopefully beat the slickness.
So, we should be good to go tomorrow night. However, a programming update for you, the games will be broadcast on KEQX 93.7. Unfortunately, the games will not be broadcasted on the web via the radio station, but you will be able to log onto the Tarleton Ticket and watch live video there. If the audio works, it will be ACU's broadcast.
Stay warm and safe!

The last time...
Both the Texans and the TexAnns fell at home last night to West Texas A&M.
The women's game was close up to the end, but the TexAnns just couldn't pull it out over the No. 13 Lady Buffs, losing 70-63. Story
The men couldn't quite ever get over the hump and get the momentum going in the second half, and Tarleton lost to the Buffs, 79-69.
Both teams dropped their second straight at home.
However, for some good news... the last time the Tarleton men dropped two straight at home was during the 2004-05 season. After that, the Texans rattled off several straight wins and even advanced to the NCAA South Central Region, winning the school's first regional title in men's basketball and advanced to the national semifinals.
Let's hope both the women and the men can go on such a streak in 2008-09!

Late night...errr... early morning
The Texans and TexAnns got home late last night... or should I say early this morning? The bus rolled into the parking lot next to the football stadium at 5:45 a.m. from TWO victories at Eastern New Mexico.
Yes, though it was a loooonnng ride to and from Portales, N.M., both the men and the women walked away with victories, getting their first wins in the Lone Star Conference South Division this season.
Now, they will look to tie their south division records at 2-2 Saturday when they host West Texas A&M. The women will begin at 6 p.m. with the men to follow at 8 p.m.
Come support Tarleton and join WHITE OUT night where we are asking everyone to wear white from head to toe. The person dressed in the most white (be it clothes, paint, etc.) will win a prize.
The good thing is... the ride home from this one is much closer!

Exhausting...
SAN ANGELO - The Texans fell tonight at Angelo State in FOUR overtimes. That's right, four overtimes. The Texans were outscored 5-0 in the fourth extra session and lost 85-80.
The Texans, who fell to 12-5 overall, are 0-2 for the first time ever in division play and for the first time in LSC standings since the 1995-96 season.
“We had great effort tonight, and this is a tough one to lose,” said head coach Lonn Reisman. “We gave all we could give. They gave everything in their heart and soul tonight, which seemed a lot different from Wednesday night. I am proud of the way we fought. We couldn’t ask for anything more, it just didn’t work out for us tonight.”
Here's the story.

Kept a lid on it
The basketball rims in Wisdom Gym seemed to have a lid on the rims Wednesday as the Texans shot just 28 percent in their own gym, falling to Texas A&M-Kingsville, 51-45.
The Texans had won the last 13 contests, dating back to TAMUK's last victory on Jan. 26, 2002 in Kingsville (71-69). Tarleton had won the last 10 contests in Stephenville over the Javelinas, dating back to a 78-74 TAMUK win on Jan. 10, 2000.
The Texans were outrebounded and went 1-15 from the three-point arc with the only three coming with 3.9 seconds left in regulation on a desperation three by Eric Williams from the top of the key.
Tarleton will return to action Saturday, Jan. 17 at Angelo State in San Angelo at 8 p.m. The Texans fell to 12-4 and 0-1 in the South Division with the loss.
------
The TexAnns also lost at home to TAMUK. Not much defense was present on Wednesday during the girls game as the TexAnns let the South Division opener slip from their grasps.
Tarleton, who was up 43-30 at the break thanks to a 13-3 run to finish the first period, fell to the Javelinas 82-78 after being outscored 52-35 in the second half.
The TexAnns will also return to action at ASU on Saturday. Tip-off for the women is set for 6 p.m.
