Another good percentage night from the field and a well-bal anced scoring attack provided A&M with their third straight conference victory and the eighth win in the past nine games. Rice has lost 10 of its last 11 starts. The Aggies hit 15 of 25 from the field in the first half and 13 of 28 in the second stanza for a 52.8 norm for the night. Rice shot 35.8% on 24 of 67 from the floor. Five A&M players were in double figures in a game marred by 44 turnovers and 48 personal fouls. Wayne Howard was the game’s leading scorer with 23 points. Playing the entire game without a substitution, he connected on eight of 14 from the field and seven of 11 charity shots. Other leading scorers for the Aggies were Mario Brown with 17 tallies on six of eight field goals and five of seven free throws, Rick Duplantis and Ran dy Knowles, 12 each, and Jeff Overhouse, 10. Duplantis was good on all five of his shots from the field and both free throws. Overhouse played only 10 minutes in the first half and 14 in the second, although the Aggies led by as much as 12 in the first stanza and 20 in the second. A&M lost the battle of the boards, 50-42, with Howard, Overhouse and Knowles getting six caroms apiece. Duplantis had five. Rice’s leading scorers were Mark Wehrle and Leroy Marion, each with 12. Wehrle and Steve Emshoff shared rebounding hon ors with eight each. The Aggies got off to their usual quick lead, but sloppy play forced a nine-point lead six min utes into the game into a 13-13 tie with 11:17 showing in the half. The Owls managed to knot it twice again, at 22 and 24 each, four minutes later, but it was never close after that. A&M’s rugged defense kept Rice off the scoreboard for five minutes after the tie at 6:47, while hitting 12 straight points. With 2:02 left to play before in termission, Bobby Threadgill made a jump shot from the top of the key for the Aggies’ big gest spread of the period, 36-24. A&M shot out of the blocks at the start of the second half. Howard made an easy layup on a fast break to give the Aggies a 50-39 advantage with four min utes gone. Brown made a crib shot on another break two minutes later and was knocked to the floor by John Kabbes. Brown hit both of the free throws awarded for the intentional violation, and A&M was off on another burst of points. Inside the eight-minute mark, a pair of 20-point leads resulted from a 22-foot jump shot from the right side by Howard and a successful one-and-one by Knowles. The Aggies cooled somewhat, but the Owls were never closer than eight, with a. minute and a half left. The scoring: A&M — Wayne Howard, 23; Mario Brown, 17; Rick Duplantis, 12; Randy Knowles, 12; Jeff Overhouse, 10; and Bobby Threadgill, 6.
