It was a close game, and the
outcome was in doubt until the
end, but the undefeated Rice Owl
ets kept their record intact by
edging the Aggie Fish 81-79 on
Autry Court in Houston last
night.
The Aggies refused to give up,
being down by 11 points twice in
the second half, once within
three minutes of the final buzzer.
Yet, they continued to battle
back, lowering the margin to one,
before Rice pulled it out.
Leading scorer for the Fish
was Johnny Mayo, who had 14 of
his 21 in the first half. Mayo was
good on eight of 12 field goal
attempts and all five free shots.
Close behind was Randy Knowles.
Knowles was seven of 16 from
the floor and six of eight from
the line.
Mark Stewart, the prize walk-
on, had a perfect shooting night,
hitting on all three shots from
the floor and all seven charity
shots. Also in the double figures
was Joe Arciniega with 10, all
field goals. His 10 rebounds
kept the Fish going. The leading
Aggie rebounder was Jack Vest,
who had 11.
A&M had a much better shoot
ing percentage, 54.9 to 42.0, but
the Owlets managed one more
field goal, and that proved, to be
the winning goal. The Aggies led
in rebounding with 45, as opposed
to 31 for Rice, but turnovers was
the key statistic, since the Fish
gave the ball up 23 times, and
Rice lost it on only seven occa
sions.
The game started evenly
enough, but then, with 17:18 re
maining, the Fish started their
move. Knowles hit from 20 feet
away to give A&M the lead.
Then Mayo scored from under
neath and made it into a three
point play. Knowles made the
seventh consecutive score on a
22 footer, and the Aggies led, 10-
4.
With 13:29 left, Knowles laid
one up, and the score was 14-7.
A layup by McKey four minutes
later peaked the lead at 22-14,
and then Rice went to work, clip
ping away at the score, until Kim
Kaufman put Rice ahead with a
long jumper, 24-23. The teams
jockeyed back and forth for the
next five and a half minutes and
at intermission, the Owlets took
a 34-32 score into the locker
room.
In the initial period, A&M hit
a blazing 63.1%, but they had
only made 12 of 19, against 14
of 39 and 35.9% for Rice. At this
time, the Fish led in rebounding
with 21-16.
Rice came out in the second
half, never giving up the lead,
but the Aggies stayed cool under
the pressure, and they made their
move at the strategic moment,
only to be disappointed in their
quest for a third straight con
ference victory.
With 2:49 remaining in the
contest, the Owlets seemed to be
in command at 78-67. Coach Jim
Culpepper’s men had other ideas,
however, and it looked like a
repetition of last week’s strong
finish against the Baylor Cubs.
Mayo got things rolling with a
one-and-one, then followed with
a layup. After a jump ball,
Randy Pryor was good on a lay
up, and Mayo hit a 20 foot set
shot, before Scott Fisher made
good on a one-and-one. Vest
copied him, however, and the
Owlets had it, 80-77 with 51 sec
onds to go.
Another clutch play put A&M
within a point, and Fisher missed
a free throw, setting up the
heartbreaking ending. 33 seconds
were left, and the Aggies were
moving in for what would have
been a tremendous victory. They
worked the ball around, looking
for a shot, but were stopped.
Hoping to set the winning play,
they called time with six seconds
to go.
During the time out, it was
noticed that that exceeded the
Fish allotment of rest periods,
and a technical foul was assessed.
Fisher hit the free throw, and it
was 81-79. The Fish still refused
to submit, stealing the ball on
the in-bounds play. They were
after the buzzer getting off the
shot, and victory had escaped
them for the second time this
season, against three wins.
Leaders for rice were Kauf
man with 22, Keith Huff, 18,
John Kabbes, 17, and Fisher, 11.
It was their third straight con
ference win.
The Fish will be in ac
again Saturday night agt
Blinn Junior College. The
will be a prelim to the
Texas Tech contest in G. &
White Coliseum, and it wills
at 5:45 p.m.
