1016 Texas Avenue — Bryan
Knowles, Johnson shine though A&M comeback is blunted
By KEVIN COFFEY
Sports Editor
AUSTIN — Impeccable free
throw shooting down the stretch
by the Texas Longhorns held off
a valiant Texas A&M rally as
UT held on for a 98-909 South
west Conference basketball win
before 7,200 fans here Wednesday
night.
The Longhorns scored nine of
their last 13 points from the
charity stripe as A&M could
never close the gap.
Texas was equally hot from the
field as they ripped the net at

from 25 feet out.
Texas opened each half red hot,
hitting 13 of their first 18 shots
in the first half and their first
six in the second stanza to build
what turned out to be an insur
mountable lead.
Larry Robinson paced the
'Homs in the first half with 22
points. He hit 11 of 16 shots be
fore John Thornton held the
Longhorn star to eight in the
second half. Sophomore Dan
Krueger, however, hit 18 of his
24 in that final stanza to pick
up the Texas scoring slack.
The contest just might have
been A&M’s finest effort of the
season. The Aggies hit 35 of
71 shots, 49.3 per cent average.
Texas jumped to a 16-point
lead early in the second half but
Randy Knowles and Mike Johnson
picked away at the UT lead by
hitting over the 'Homs sliding
1-3-1 zone defense.
Knowles tied Robinson for high
point honors with 30.
Texas opened the final stanza,
hitting everything they tossed up
and Knowles kept the Aggies
from being blown out of Gregory
Gym. All his efforts went for
naught. Every time A&M threat
ened to pull within reach of the
Longhorns, an untimely turnover
resulted in a UT score.
Texas won the battle of the
boards, 48-34, and seemed to pick
up every loose ball on the court.
Mike Floyd and Charlie Jenkins
tossed six assists each, mostly to
Knowles under the bucket. Floyd
finished wth 18 points hitting
eight straight Aggie points at the
end of the first half. Jenkins
scored four points.
Robinson was phenomenal the
first half, hitting shots from all
over the court. Injured last year
throughout conference play with
a broken kneecap, the senior for
ward kept the Aggie zone run
ning all over the floor.
A&M cut the big Texas lead,
courtesy of Knowles and Johnson.
As the Aggie press began to force
Texas into turnovers, both out
side men began to hit to pull
A&M to within four at 80-76.
Texas, however, hit the next four
points after Aggie miscues to put
the game out of reach.

“We played as hard as any
team can,” said Aggie Coach
Shelby Metcalf. “Texas’ shooting
was just unreal. I’ve been coach
ing here 17 years and I’ve never
seen anything like it. Half the
time they’d shoot before they got
to our defense. When we moved
out to pick them up earlier, they’d
just hit from farther out.
“Considering where they shot
from,” Metcalf said, referring to
the constant barrage of 25 to
30-foot UT scoring shots, “it was
phenomenal.”
Texas coach Leon Black also
credited the outstanding shooting
of his Longhorns for the win.
“Our free throw shooting has
improved and it kept us in the
