THE BATTALION
IN TIGHT GAME
Inspired Ag Basket!)alters
Tumble Cougars, 69 - 67
By VAN CONNER
Battalion Sports Editor
In a game in which neither team
held more than a 6-point advantage
throughout, Coach Bob Rogers’
inspired Cadet basketballers held
on to a slim lead in the closing
seconds and tumbled nationally-
ranked Houston, 69-67, Saturday
night in G. Rollie'White Coliseum.
The win was the 28th consecu
tive home triumph for A&M and
the Cougars’ first season loss. The
Ags now own a 4-1 record, after
having lost onte to the Lamar
Tech Cardinals in Beaumont.
A tension-filled second half saw
four foul-outs, the score tied four
times and the lead change hands
six times. With just over three
minutes left to play, the Cadets
were out in front, 67-66, when Lee
Walker drew his fifth foul and
Houston’s Don Schverak made one
of two charity tosses to even
things up.
A&M CALLED t i m e, then
brought the ball slowly downcourt
and set up to wait for the final,
decisive shot. With 42 seconds left,

Houston’s Eddie Winch got worried
and guarded Bennie Lenox too
close. Lenox sank both on the
one-and-one situation and the
Cadets had two important tallies.
Houston took a time-out with 17
seconds left and then came up-
court where Folly Malone had a
shot but missed and Lew Qualls
picked off his 9th rebound to spoil
the night for the Cougars.
Houston had taken an early lead
in the first half, hut with four
minutes gone in the period Qtialls
put the Cadets, ahead, 6-5, with
a tip-in. A few minutes later the
Ags had managed to broaden the
lead to 16-10.
COUGAR ALL-AMERICA can
didate Lyle Harger went to work
then, along with teammates Tommy
Thompson and Malone, and shaved
the lead to two points. Winch
sank two free throws with 6:44
left in the half to make it 23-23.
Ten seconds later Gerald Wood
ard put the Ags out in front again
with one of two free shots. The
shooting of Walker and Lenox kept
the Ags ahead until less than a
minute remained in the half, when
Schverak and Harger dropped in
a jumper and a pair of free
throws, respectively, to even it up
at 38-38.
With four seconds left until the
break, Lenox put in a jump shot
from the free-throw line to give
the Aggies a 40-38 halftime lead.
Although the Ags managed to
pull six points ahead of the
Cougars early in the second period,
things got pretty salty from then
on. Woodard fouled out with half
the period gone. Harger had to
leave with five minutes-’ left and
A&M’s Paul Timmins followed
suit a few seconds later.
LENOX was the game high-
point man with 22. Houston’s
Harger followed him with 20 and
Malone had 19. For the Ags,
Jerry Windham put in a fine
nights work with 18 points and
matched Harger’s 13 rebounds.
The Cadets outshot the Cougars
from the floor with 25 of 58 for
43.1 per cent. Houston had 21 of
52 for 40.4 per cent. What Rogers
is most proud of, however, are the
46 x'ebounds the Ag’gies collected
against 38 for Houston. He
pointed out Sunday that this was
a fine showing against a club as
tall and strong as Guy Lewis’
Cougars.
