For a long time on Monday night, the Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Islanders could not miss.
Back-to-back three-pointers by Vanderbilt Commodores star Aaron Nesmith gave the team an 8-5 lead with 14:39 left in the first half, and after Nolan Bertain tied it up at the other end, Dylan Disu hit a three for his first points as a Commodore. And that would be the last time the Commodores would lead in the first half. As Vanderbilt was playing sloppy, the Islanders were hitting seven of their first nine three-point attempts to go into the break with a 31-29 lead.
