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.

Bowl Indoor Track Classic next
Tuesday in Memphis, Tenn.
Once again the Mills brothers,
Curtis and Marvin, head a host
of fine runners into competition,
with the strong events for A&M
being the sprints, relay races, and
the high jump, with improvement

Assistant Sports Editor
The Aggie Fish open the 1970-
71 season here Monday night as
they meet Wharton Junior Col
lege at 5:45 p.m. in G. Rollie
White Coliseum. The Aggie varsi
ty meets the University of Texas
at Arlington in the second game.
The Fish have scrimmaged the
varsity several times this year,
and in Tuesday’s preliminary
game, they defeated an intra
mural team 102-42.
The success of the Aggies and
the recruiting of Coach Shelby
Metcalf and Fish Coach Jim Cul
pepper have brought some fine
prospects to Aggieland.
Jack Vest is a 6-8 postman from
Kerrville. An aerospace engineer
ing major, he was all state two
years and honorable mention All-
America. He scored 17 against the
intramural team.
in the hurdles and distance events.
In the sprints, Marvin Mills
will be entered in the 50 yard
dash, while brother Curtis and
Robert Brew will run in the 440
yard dash. Curtis, of course, has
a best time of 44.7 in the quarter
mile. He won the conference 440
last season with a 46.0.
The Aggies will be facing stiff
competition in all events, against
the teams from Memphis State
(Missouri Valley Conference
champs), Kansas (Big Eight
champs), and Tennessee (South
east Conference champs).
Relay teams were big winners
at A&M last season, and the same
is expected this year. Only two
relay events will be run in Mem
phis, the big one being the mile
relay. In Houston last year at
the Astrodome, the team of Har
old McMahan, Willie Blackmon,
and Marvin and Curtis Mills set
an indoor world record of 3:05.7.
The team to compete Tuesday will
consist of the Mills, and sopho
mores Davis Morris and Robert
Brew.
The other relay is the two mile
relay. A&M will have Pat Brad
ley, Dennis O’Brien, Harold Vagt-
borg, and Joe Waltz in the event.
Vagtborg and Bradley are fresh
men, while O’Brien and Waltz
are sophomores.
Ben Greathouse won the SWC
in the high jump with a leap of
6-9, and Marvin Taylor was sec
ond with 6-7. This will be a close
