Page 4 College Station, Texas Friday, December 4, 1970 THE BATTALION Ags seek first win against Lions By CLIFFORD BROYLES Battalion Sports Editor The Texas Aggies and East Texas State University Lions, both looking for their first wins of the season, will match shots at 8 tonight in G. Rollie White Coliseum as Coach Shelby Met calf—for the first time in his eight years as head coach of the Aggies—will coach against his alma mater. Metcalf earned both bachelor’s and master’s degrees at East Texas and was a member of the 1955 team which had a 29-5 record and won the National As sociation of Intercollegiate Ath letics (NAIA) championship. He is in a picture of that NAIA cham pionship team in the 1970 ETSU basketball brochure. It will be the third time the two teams have met. The Lions won the last meeting in 1948 when they dumped the Aggies, en route to a 19-4 season and the Lone Star Conference champion ship. A&M won the first meeting, in 1916, the first year the Commerce school played basketball. The Aggies dropped their open er Tuesday night to Stephen F. Austin 89-82, while the Lions fell to East Central Oklahoma, 74-72, and Oklahoma, 87-59, in their first two encounters. Coach Metcalf will have three changes in the lineup for tonight’s game. Two sophomores, Bob Gobin and Jeff Overhouse and junior Rick Duplantis will make their first starts. Gobin, with six points, hitting on three of six shots and grab bing three rebounds; Overhouse, with eight points, hitting on three of five shots and snagging five rebounds; and Duplantis hitting on all three shots while scoring eight points and grabbing down three rebounds, led the play of the young players in the opener. Metcalf said he was muchly im pressed with that phase of the SFA game. Alongside those three will be Steve Niles, who scored 15 points while hitting on two-thirds of his shots, and Pat Kavanagh, who scored eight points, hitting on three of four field goals.
