With five sec onds remaining, Baylor’s star center. Herb Barritt, dribbled in for the tying shot, the ball struck his foot and bounced out of bounds. The Aggies took over and ran out the clock. The Cadets have an 8-4 record for the season and a 2-1 mark in SWC play. Lewis Qualls played his finest game of the season against the Bears as he dropped in 12 points and grabbed 14 rebounds.
