Hoping to keep their television
record spotless and retain a share
of the Southwest Conference bas
ketball lead, the Texas Aggies
host the Rice Owls at 2:10 p.m.
Saturday in G. Rollie White.
It will be the second time in
two weeks that the regional tele
vision cameras have been focused
on the Aggies and it will be the
first time in history that a game
has ever been televised from Col
lege Station. Last week in Aus
tin the Aggies downed Texas
University 65-57 before the same
cameras.
A 66-65 loss to Baylor on Tues
day night was A&M’s first defeat
of the season and dropped the
two teams into a tie for first place
in the conference with identical

The Owls of Coach Don Knodel
field one of the most improved
teams in the SWC this season and
will enter Saturday’s tilt fresh
from a 76-70 triumph over Texas.
The Owls are short on height but
they have two of the finest out
side shooters in the conference in
Greg Williams (5-9) and Tom
Myer (6-1).
In their victory over Texas,
Myer and Williams shot over the
Steers 1-2-2 zone for 22 and 19
points respectively. Speed has
been the strong point of the
Houston cagers thus far as they
run a tight zone and full court
press to perfection.
Other key players for Rice are
Jim Naples (6-6), a transfer from
Mercer Junior College, Gary Reist
(6-2) and Steve Wendel (6-8).
The Owls boast more out of state
players than any other team in
the SWC with Williams from
Portland, Indiana, Naples from
Jersey City, New Jersey, Myer
from Camden, Indiana, Resist
from Hamilton, Ohio, Chuck Nel
son from Ft. Wayne, Indiana and
Marty Tendler from St. Louis,
Missouri.
It will be another must game
for Coach Shelby Metcalf’s cagers
as the first round of play in the
SWC comes to an end. The Ag
gies face each of the teams in
the conference once more this
year with road games against
Texas Tech, Rice and TCU.
Billy Bob Barnett continues to
pace the Aggies in scoring for the
season with a 17.2 average. The

Close behind Peret with a 16.6

Peret followed by Mike Heitmann
with a 13.1 average and Sonny

The fifth starter is seven foot

rebounds per contest.
Peret is the scoring leader for
conference with an 18.3 mark and
also leads A&M’s rebounders for
the season with a 9.5 average.
Barnett and Harry Bostic have
pulled down 8.4 and 6.8 rebounds
per game.
Bostic, a 6-6 senior, was just
coming into his own when he got
hurt against TCU and it will be
at least another two weeks before
he will be ready to play. His -re

have been sorely missed by A&M

The Aggies continue to hit well

Fish To Battle
Rice Freshmen
BY RICHARD CAMPBELL
The Texas A&M Fish basket-
bailers will return to familiar
surroundings Saturday at 11:30
a.m. when they host the Rice Owl
ets to try to halt their present
losing streak at two games.
The Fish will return to their
home court after suffering two
straight road losses, first to the
Texas Yearlings, 126-76, and then
to the Baylor Cubs, 79-77. They
had previously beaten Henderson
County JC, TCU, Wharton Coun
ty, and Lon Morris.
Jeff Watkins continues to lead
the Fish in scoring and rebound
ing with 20 points and 13 re
bounds against the Cubs. In the
Yearling game he scored 23
points and pulled down 20 re
bounds. He is now averaging 22.8
points per game and 13.8 re
bounds per contest.
Rice will field a starting five
which is shorter than the Fish
with Don Snyder (6-3), Leroy
Marion (6-4), Dan McQuire
(5-10), Ted Melady (6-6), and
Dale Johnson (6-2) expected to
get the nod.
On Wednesday night the Owl
ets edged the Texas Freshman to
become the only team to beat
them this season and the Year
lings were supposedly one of the
strongest freshman teams in the
country.
