This Week at the Hilltop, St. Edward's Heads to Oklahoma

| By:
This #WeekAtTheHilltop, the St. Edward's University Hilltoppers will compete in Oklahoma. The men's and women's basketball teams will face Oklahoma Christian and Cameron, and the men's and women's indoor track and field teams will participate in the Oklahoma University Owen Hewett Invitational. 
 
Indoor Track & Field
St. Edward's Indoor Track & Field returns with the second meet of its inaugural season, traveling to Norman, Oklahoma, to compete in the Owen Hewett Invitational. 
 
The Hilltoppers will send a contingent of sprinters, hurdlers, and long jumper DAVID MARQUEZ to compete. 
 
JORDON CHAPPELL looks to build off a strong first meet, clocking the third-best time in the LSC in the 200 and fourth in the 400. ANDRE MOORE is in the top 20 in the 60, and TYRIQ WILSON is No. 13 in the 400. They join Christian Mendoza to form the fourth-best 4x400 relay performance in the conference. 
 
On the women's side, HAILEY RODRIGUEZ has clocked the ninth-best times in the 200 and 400, AUDREY WISTAIN and Myosia Virgin own the fifth and seventh-best ties in the 60 hurdles, and the women's 4x400 relay team has the seventh-best time so far. 
 
Women's Basketball (6-11, 2-6)
St. Edward's looks to bounce back from a pair of losses against nationally-ranked UT Tyler and Texas Woman's University and makeup ground in the standings against Oklahoma Christian. This will be only the second road trip this season in which St. Edward's does not face a nationally-ranked opponent. 
 
The Hilltoppers have started slowly offensively in the last two games and will look to get off to quicker starts against scoring defenses that rank Nos. 11 and 14 in the Lone Star Conference.
 
J.P. remains the LSC leader in assists per game. She is also one of three SEU regular rotation players hitting better than 33 percent from beyond the 3-point line alongside starters KIANA BENNETT and RAMSEY ROBLEDO
 
at Oklahoma Christian (6-7, 3-6)
The Eagles are coming off a split at Texas A&M International and Texas A&M Kingsville. They defeated the Dustdevils 65-52 before losing to the Javelinas 63-42. 
 
Taylor Jackson leads Oklahoma Christian with 14.6 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 1.6 steals per game, shooting 50.4 percent from the field and 71.8 percent from the free-throw line, where the Eagles lead the LSC in attempts (20.46 per game) and makes (15.77). Kate Bradley leads the conference in minutes played, averaging 13.7 points per game. 
 
at Cameron (2-11, 0-9)
Cameron has dropped all nine games to open conference play and is coming off road losses to Texas A&M-Kingsville and Texas A&M International. 
 
The Aggies are No. 14 in the LSC in field-goal percentage defense, scoring defense, and rebound margin. Cameron has three players averaging 10 points per game, led by Alena Wilson's 10.9 with 8.2 rebounds. Korie Allensworth (10.3) and Katie King (10.0) also score double figures. 
 
Men's Basketball (10-7, 4-4)
St. Edward's dropped two consecutive games on the road last week, surrendering big 3-point performances from UT-Tyler's Margen Gatkuoth (7-for-11) and DBU's Drew Calderon (7-for-14) to falter down the stretch. 
 
LEWIS ROWE remains the Hilltoppers' leading scorer, averaging 18.3 points per game in conference play on 63 percent shooting. St. Edward's also received an uptick in scoring from his frontcourt teammate JAMISON KAY, who scored 28 points on a combined 11-for-17 shooting last week. The team also welcomed back LUCA BAREI, who hit 4-for-5 from deep off the bench last week. 
 
at Oklahoma Christian (5-9, 2-7)
Oklahoma Christian has dropped four games in a row, falling to DBU, UT Tyler, Texas A&M International, and Texas A&M-Kingsville. 
 
The Hilltoppers played all four opponents in the last two weeks, winning the A&M games at home to open the new year. 
 
The Eagles frequently get to the free-throw line, ranking second in the LSC in attempts (23.3) and made (16.7) per game. They're also fourth in the conference in 3-point percentage (35.7) and ninth in attempts. Ball security remains an issue, ranking 14th in turnovers per game and 13th in turnover margin. 
 
Keyondre Young, a 6-foot-9 wing from Del City, Okla., leads four Eagles in double figures, averaging 17.1 per game, shooting better from deep (46.3 percent) than the field (43.4 percent). 
 
St. Edward's point guard, GAVINO RAMOS, scored career-highs against Oklahoma Christian in the past two seasons. 
 
at Cameron (6-9, 3-6)
Cameron is just 3-6 in conference play but is playing its best basketball of the season since the calendar turned to 2025. The Aggies have won three in a row (UT Tyler, Texas A&M-Kingsville, Texas A&M International) after opening the new year with a down-to-the-wire loss to nationally-ranked DBU after leading most of the game. 
 
Six-foot-eight forward Aaron Jacob leads the Aggies with 14.5 points per game, shooting 49 percent from the field and 41.7 percent from deep. Senior guard Lavell Brodnex just passed 1,000 career points and averages 13.8 per game. 
 
The Aggies lead the conference in blocks per game, are second in rebound margin, and third in fastbreak points.
