However, it was not hook or crook, but pure ability that propel led the Aggies to a one-two finish in the tourney. Fosdick, heading the varsity, and Schueckler, who coaches the frosh polo team, both had undefeated squads going into the tournament. By a quirk of fate, the draw had the A&M tankers matched up in the first contest. In what Fosdick called “the most physical of all the games, the more experienced varsity zipped past their freshman cohorts by the score of 8-4.

SANDL££* Although improving throughout the tourney, Fosdick said his team was handicapped by the off icials un familiarity with the new NCAA rule changes. “The NCAA mid-year rule changes continue to haunt all teams this year. It is impossible for coaches and officials to get copies of the new rules fromthe association,’ said Fosdick. “TheyHiave been pas sed from hand-to-band, coach-to- coach, official-to-official. The offi cials have had no time to learn and understand the changes. The varsity made it a four game sweep by then whipping the Uni versity of Central Arkansas 7-2, dominating the University of Ar kansas at Little Rock 9-3 and taking the finale over Hendrix College by 14-6. Fosdick was pleased with the team effort and overall teamwork put forth by his tankers, although many of the usual first liners stayed home this weekend to rest. In the last two games, every A&M goal was preceded by an assist. “It was a story of conditioning and experience which proved a winning combination for us. The team out- reacted all of their opponents. In fact, at times they out-reacted the officials, Fosdick commented. Leading scorers for the up perclassmen were Mike Reilly with seven goals in the tourney, followed by Bob Leland with six. Don Wederman, Nash Dowdle and Craig Hill each had four scores. Wederman, Dennis Light and Le land sparked the offense with seven assists aj)iece.

Royal says team best in years AUSTIN (AP) — Texas Coach Darrell Boyal assessed his squad at mid-season Monday as the best team he has had in recent years. “We are a better football team than in the last several years, in my opinion, Royal told his weekly news conference. The eighth-ranked Longhorns “have continued to improve. Royal said. “I thought the big hump we got over was up at Fayetteville. Texas came off a 24-17 loss to No. 2 Oklahoma to heat Arkansas 24-18 at Fayetteville, Ark., and then wal loped Rice, 41-9, here last Saturday night. Texas apparently escaped with out injury, and Royal said, “I think we are in the best physical shape of the season. He added, however, that guard Will Wilcox "is not the original Will Wilcox ’ as a result of an earlier foot injury, and tackle George James is still “bothered” by a knee injury al though both are starting. The Rice victory padded Texas season record to 6-1, with four Southwest Conference games re maining, including the finale against unbeaten Texas A&M, Asked why his team was better than he anticipated in pre-season. Royal noted the development of sophomore Steve Collier at safety Brad Shearer at defensive tackle. Boh Simmons and David Studdard at offensive tackle, Bilh Gordon at center, Rick Fenlaw at linebacker, Alfred Jackson at wide receiver, and freshman Tim Campbell at defen sive end. He said Jackson, who has caught 22 passes for 41 yards, is Texas be st receiver since Cotton Speyrei in 1970. Royal noted, too, that defensive tackle Robert Rickman, who had 11 tackles against Rice, was not even considered a sure prospect foi the traveling squad a couple ol weeks ago. In addition. Royal said defensive halfback Raymond Clayborn cer tainly ought to be a candidate foi the all-SWC secondary.
