PRINCESS ANNE, Md. – The Aggies women’s basketball team not only missed Lamona Smalley’s body, but they missed her mind as well. After missing 14 games last season with a severe knee injury, Smalley has played excellent basketball for the Aggies lately. Her strong play continued Saturday afternoon as she scored 15 points and grabbed 14 rebounds to lead North Carolina A&T to a 72-59 win over Maryland-Eastern Shore at W.P. Hytche Arena.
