Second-half runs help Texas close out Cal Baptist, 67-54

AUSTIN, Texas — As a cold day turned into a colder evening, the Texas Longhorns went cold from the field in the first half, shooting only 29.6 percent, but a strong second half keyed by sophomore guard Courtney Ramey and a strong response to a late run by the Cal Baptist Lancers helped the Longhorns to a 67-54 win at the Erwin Center on Tuesday evening.

Ramey led Texas in scoring with 19 points on 8-of-11 shooting — his career high in points and made baskets — after hitting his first six shots in the second half, many on drives to the basket after the Longhorns settled for 16 three-point attempts in the first half, hitting on only two.
