Texas A&M-Commerce Athletic Director, Tim McMurray, announced a reorganization of the Lions executive team, along with administrative staff additions and adjustments.

More information is available on the school’s athletic website.
Last night the Dallas Mavericks get edged out by the Denver Nuggets, 105-102. Dallas battled back from down 10 with two and a half minutes remaining and drew within one with 10 seconds remaining, however, despite the Mavs attempts to send Denver to the free throw line, no foul was called until only one second remained. Mavs rookie guard, Dennis Smith Jr. had a stellar night with 25 points on 11 of 18 shooting and dished out five assists, but the Mavs drop to 15-30 on the season.
The Dallas Stars continue to play well in a 4-2 win over the Detroit Redwings. Jason Spezza, who’d been benched earlier this month due to performance on the ice, lead the Stars with a pair of goals while John Klingberg and Alexander Radulov contributed two points on a pair of assists apiece. The Stars are up to 55 points on the season and continue to hold the top Wildcard spot in the Western Conference. Dallas returns to the ice tomorrow night against Columbus.
