The Lamar Cardinals delivered a statement performance on Wednesday night, dismantling Centenary of Louisiana with a lopsided 122-57 victory at home in Beaumont, Texas. Abeeng Agot and Quante Berry anchored the offensive surge, each scoring 23 points to lead the Cardinals (2-1) to their most decisive win of the season.

Cardinals’ balanced attack and defensive pressure dismantle Gents in dominant home victory
Supporting the duo, Dominic Eason provided efficient firepower, shooting 6-for-7 from the field, including 2-for-3 from beyond the arc, to finish with 14 points. The Cardinals’ defense suffocated the Centenary Gents, limiting their top scorers and forcing turnovers that fueled fast-break opportunities. The high-scoring nature of the game highlighted Lamar’s ability to convert defensive stops into easy buckets, a hallmark of their current offensive system.
For Centenary, the night was defined by a lack of offensive cohesion against Lamar’s aggressive defense. Donnie Haney led the Gents with 11 points, while Jalen Brown added 10 points and three steals in a valiant effort to keep the game competitive. Jaden Braden contributed eight points, but the Gents could not overcome the sheer volume of scoring and rebounding dominance displayed by the home team. The result solidifies Lamar’s position as a potent force in the conference, with their balanced attack proving difficult to contain.
