Winning is never easy against
Texas University but the A&M
Fish showed a hometown crowd
of in excess of 5,000 people that
with a Southwest Conference title
on the line it could be done.
It was in great style as A&M
defeated the Texas Yearlings,
81-72, here Tuesday. A&M took
the title by having the best sea
son’s mark, 12-4, compared to a
10-5 for Texas.
Mike Floyd took the local scor
ing honors by hitting seven of
12 field goals and six of 10 free
throws. Cedric Joseph had 19,
Webb Williams 16 and Dale Don
aldson finished with 13 to round
out the scoring.
High point man for the game
was Texas’ Chris Voegle with 22.
Joseph and Mercer co-held the
rebounding honors wtih ten. Mark
Anthony led the Yearlings with

A&M won the game by having
a hot hand in hitting 31 of 55
shots for 66% from the field. The
Yearlings, who hit for 58% in the
first half, dropped to 40% the
final stanza and an overall 47%
for the night.
There was little excitement in
the first stanza as both teams
had trouble holding on to the ball.
The Aggies had a good spurt
early in the period when they
scored eight unanswered points
in a three minute span of time
and jumped out to a nine point
lead, 20-11.
Texas quickly scored six points
to bring the visitors within six,
22-16 and ten minutes to play.
The remainder of the period
was spent with both teams play
ing conservatively. Texas ran a
deliberate offensive pattern cou
pled wtih a tenacious man-to-man
defense. A&M countered with a
fast break offensive attack and
a mammoth size advantage under
the backboards.
A&M finished the half with a
five point lead, 40-35.
Texas started the second half
wtih a bang, bringing the score
to 45-44 with 15:30 left in the
period.
A&M countered with five
straight points in pulling ahead,
55-44 with 13:50 left.
The Texas press and deliber
ate offensive attack began to
puzzle the run-and-shoot Fish
while the Yearlings began to eat
away the Fish lead, 52-50, wth
12:05 remaining. The Fish began

to click and drove to a 64-56 lead
with 7:00 left.
With the 64th point, Joseph
broke the A&M freshman scoring
mark previously held by Texas
freshman Coach Bennie Lenox.
At that time the crowd gave
Joseph a standing ovation.
Texas was never to be denied,
however. A&M pulled to a ten-
point lead, -6858 with 6:00 left
only to have the Yearlings pull to
within four, 72-68, with 2:37 left.
The Yearlings began to foul
for possession of the basketball.
This trick misfired as the Fish
jumped out to a 81-69 lead, with
1:30 left.
It was a comedy of errors until
the buzzer and A&M won the
SWC freshman title with a 12-4
record compared to a 10-5 for
Texas in the 81-72 season’s finale.
After the game, Cedric Joseph
was coerced into leading the mas
