It’s only 13 days until the 1975-76
basketball season opens, and Aggie
coach Shelby Metcalf feels that his
team’s chances of repeating their
championship feat of last year are as
good as any other team in the con
ference.
‘The conference is going to be
much more balanced this year than
last year,” Metcalf said. “I look for
the conference winner to have as
many as three or four losses.”
Metcalf is pleased with the prog
ress that his team has made through
the early goings but feels that this
year’s Aggies are a little behind last
year’s team. “We’ve really got a
problem because when we divide
up to practice we spread the talent
so thin that we can’t really work
good.
“We’ve got four seniors that play
with more intensity than any group
I’ve ever seen,’’ Metcalf said.
We’ve got outstanding senior lead
ership, and you’ve got to have that
to win championships. You won’t
see a team win a championship
without it.’
As for the seniors Metcalf feels
that all of the seniors have im
proved. “Barry and Sonny and Ray
have all improved noticeably,” Met
calf said. Gates Erwin, the other
senior, has missed two weeks be
cause of a muscle tear.
“Barry’s lighter and he’s im
proved his speed and quickness. He
jumped well last year, but he’s
jumping better this year. And he
was aggressive last year, but he’s
more aggressive this year.
“Of course Sonny is like a Russian
Cosmonaut, he’s just out of this
world. He can make some unbe-
lieveable moves and what’s impres
sive is that in the same situaHon he
will make different moves,” Metcalf
added.
The Aggie boss also praised senior
co-captain Ray Roberts. Ray is
doing a fine job, like always. We’re
going to need to keep Sonny, Ray
and Barry in the game as much as
possible.”
Terrell, Ponies
sock Panama
squad, 112-95
Associated Press
DALLAS — Ira Terrell scored 21
points and grabbed 11 rebounds
here Tuesday to lead the Southern
Methodist University Mustangs to a
112-95 exhibition basketball victory
over the Panama national team.
Terrell, who was playing his first
game after spending a year on prob
ation, was the big man for the Mus
tangs, who pulled down 83 re
bounds.
Errol Howard had 21 points for
the Panamanians to tie Terrell for
scoring honors.
The starting lineup looks like this
at this point for the opener with
Wayland Baptist: Barry Davis at the
high post with back-up help from
Wally Swanson. The low post posi
tion is still undecided with a battle
going on between Wally Swanson
and Jarvis Williams, both freshmen.
“They will probably divide time
there all year with Wally going more
against a zone because he’s a fine
shooter and Jarvis going more when
we re in a zone press because he’s
quicker,” Metcalf said.
Parker and Roberts will start at
the wings and will be backed up by
Steve Jones and Joey Robinson. “All
four of them are good shooters and
they all have good speed on the
press,” the coach noted.
Freshman phenom Karl Godine
will start at the point guard and will
be backed up by Erwin.
“We played nine people last year
and will play nine this year. Our top
nine are good athletes and it
wouldn’t surprise me if our starting
five by conference time is better
than our starting five was in our con
ference opener last year,” Metcalf
said.
“There are a lot of good seniors
around the league, and there are
quite a few good newcomers. It
should be very interesting. We
need to play a game and get experi
ence. And after we get going, I
think we’ll do all right.”
The Aggies will play four home
games in December. The Ags will
host Wayland Baptist Dec. 1,
Southwest Texas State Dec. 3,
Houston Baptist Dec. 6 and Sam
Houston State Dec. 9.
