Guard Danuel House scored 13 points to lead four Texas A&M players in double figures as the Aggies ended a five-game Southeastern Conference losing streak with a 71-56 victory over Ole Miss on Tuesday in College Station, Texas.

Center Tyler Davis scored 11 points, while guard Anthony Collins and forward D.J. Hogg added 10 each for the Aggies (19-7, 8-5 SEC).

Guard Stefan Moody scored 17 points to lead Ole Miss (16-10, 6-7), which also got 15 points from forward Tomasz Gielo.

However, Moody, who was guarded by five different players and often double-teamed, managed just five points in the second half. He was 1-for-11 from the floor in the second half and finished 5-for-19.

The Aggies took control early in the second half after House hit a 3-pointer from the top of the key to start an 8-0 run that produced a 53-40 lead with 15:42 remaining.

Texas A&M's lead never dripped below nine points after that.

Ole Miss jumped out to a nine-point lead in the first half, but Hogg and guard Admon Gilder scored back-to-back baskets to ignite a 16-3 run that was highlighted by consecutive dunks by center Tonny Trocha-Morelos, Hogg and guard Alex Caruso. The surge gave Texas A&M a 32-28 advantage.

The Aggies extended the lead to 40-35 at halftime and then never let up in the second half.
