Texas Tech came to College Sta
tion looking for a share of the lead in
the SWC race and left toting it
under their belt. The Red Raiders
came well prepared to take on the
league-leading Aggies and tamed
them with a 73-63 decision.
The loss, only the second home
defeat for the Ags this season, drop
ped them into a first place tie with
the “Techsans” with a 9-2 record.
Texas Tech got the ball on the tip
and it was an omen of what was to
come. Sonny Parker stole the ball
and passed to Barry Davis who laid a
jump shot across the net but it pop
ped right back out. Steve Dunn
tucked in a corner shot to start the
scoring and give the Raiders the
early lead.
Jerry Mercer moved in and laid in
a shot to tie the game. It was as close
as the Ags could get all night.
Bullock hit two in close right away
and that was all she wrote. With
The fabulous

loyal Red Raider Dan Watson let
ting Bullock play his game under
the Aggie basket, the Ags could not
push anything past the big man for
more than four minutes as the
“Techsans ’ moved way out to a 14-2
lead.
After the Ags got things together
a little bit, the teams traded baskets
until the half when Tech led 36-25.
Bullock and William Johnson led all
scorers with eight at the half and
helped Tech to a 44.8 percentage for
the first period.
The Ags were hindered by cold
shooting, 31 per cent worth, and
strong back board work where Bul
lock blocked five shots and collected
five rebounds.
A&M came back the second half
and played the Red Raiders even,
but could not overcome the big
margin. After Davis hit two free
throws, Tech garnered three
straight baskets to up their lead to
17. The Ags kept fighting back nar
rowing the lead but could come no
closer than 10.
Tech kept adding points one by
one until Bullock left the game with
four fouls with a little less than ten
minutes left to play. It looked as
though the Ags could staged a com
eback. But alas, it was not the night
of the Ags as Tech went on to build
up an 18 point lead.
The Ags came hack after Keith
Kitchens fouled out but the rally fell
ten points short.
Arkansas was helped to their lead
early by the referees and tough bas
ket work by Bullock, but it was their
expert work on the press, that kept
them in the game the second half.
They had the Ags well scouted and
cut off the inside lanes. The move
ment under the basket kept the Ags
from moving inside and it was that
disability which kept the Ags from
their usual strong game close in. As
evidence is the very low assist total
for the Ags who had only two. “I
don’t think our defense beat us,”
said Head Coach Shelby Metcalf.
“It was our offense,” he said of the
35.6 per cent shooting of the Ags.
“How much of it was their de
fense, I don t know.”
Talking of the rest of the season,
Metcalf said, ‘‘They have the
momentum, they’ve won eight
straight and the schedule is in their
