Fish Get Revenge
On Wogs, 72-67
A&M’s Fish cagers put down a
strong rally by the stubborn TCU
Wogs to take a 72-67 victory Sat
urday night and avenge an earlier
defeat in Ft. Worth.
The teams fought evenly for
half of the opening period and
were tied 18-18 when the Fish
took off. With John Beasley and
Dick Stringfellow leading the
sm-ge, the A&M freshmen pulled
out to a 40-28 lead at halftime.
With 12:45 remaining to play
the Fish held what seemed to be
a safe 19-point lead. But the Wogs
weren’t convinced and in eight
minutes closed the gap to a single
point, 60-59.
Beasley had his best night of
the season in the scoring column
with 25 points. He had nine from
the floor and seven at the chaiity
line. The 6-7 lad also led in re
bounding with 14.
A&M clung to a slender lead on
the shooting of Beasley and John
Reynolds and went into a stall
with a minute and a half to play.
Dale Abshire paced the Wogs
with 20 points, while Jim Torbert
dumped in 18 and Roger Potts hit
for 11.

Lenox Continues Onslouglil
As Aggies Blast Froggies

Battalion Ass’t Sports Editor
Guard Bennie Lenox continued
his wholesale onslaught on Car-
roll Broussard’s scoring records
and the TCU Horned Frogs pre
sented no serious opposition as
the Aggies walked off with an
87-54 victory in G. Rollie White
Coliseum Saturday night.
LENOX PUMPED in 30 points
and the Cadets out-rebounded the
inept Frogs 61-43 with Jerry
Windham getting 14 and Lee
Walker coming down with 11.
The Froggies handed the lead
to the Cadets early and seemed
contented to please the 3,000 fans
with their awkward antics the
rest of the night.
Coach Bob Rogers’ crew held as
much as a 16-point advantage
twice in the first half and was
ahead 36-28 at intermission.

Rogers’ lads are currently hold

In the second half, TCU was so
cold the possibility arose that they
may have been shooting snow
balls. Meanwhile the Farmei-s were
hitting 58.4 per cent of their shots
to run their margin above 30
points for the last quarter of the
game.
THE BIG EDGE gave Rogers a
chance to show the fans a picture
of things to come as three sopho
mores and two juniors were on
the court for the Aggies in the
last two minutes.
Lynn Merritt with 10 points and
Cecil Ferguson with eight looked
promising, but outstanding per
formances by Windham and Walk
er made the fans realize how much
their graduation is going to hurt.
The two tall W’s each poured
in 11 points.
The 87-54 score was A&M’s big
gest winning margin for the sea
son and lacked only five points of
topping their 91 point showing
against Centenary opening night.
