The Aggies go into the Rice series on Friday and Saturday with a conference mark of five victories and four defeats, while the record over the season is balanced at nine wins and nine losses. Nelson Wins Two Jerry Nelson added two victories to his pitching record as he reliev ed Melvin Work in the Friday SM U game and pitched five innings to get credit for the 14-5 win over the Ponies. Nelson came back Mon day to go the route against the TCU Horned Frogs for a four-hit 3-2 victory. The wins gave him a conference record of four wins and one loss, and his season mark stands at four wins and two losses. Heft Leads Hitters Don Heft leads Cadet hitters in the 18 games played to date, with eight hits in 29 times at bat, for a .276 average. Tex Farmer is next with 17 hits in 67 at bat for a .254 season mark. Nelson leads the pitchers in games won and lost, with a 4-2 mark, although Ed Hennig won the oply game in which he was a pitcher of record. Work leads in the earned run average column, giving up six earned runs for a 1.7 average. Lou Little has an earned run average of 1.8 to hold down second place in that department.
