Sonny Parker has been named the
Southwest Conference Player of the
Week after outstanding perform
ances last week against Houston and
Arkansas. Known as Sonny P to
friends and fans, Parker was over
whelming in leading the Ags over
UH with 22 points and ten rebounds.
He then bettered the performance in
a close but losing effort to Arkansas.
Longhorns
get chance
for revenge
By TONY GALLUCCI
Battalion Staff Writer
The Aggies venture into Austin
tonight to test the mettle of the 1976
edition of Leon Black’s Longhorn
basketball team.
Aggie Head Coach Shelby Metcalf
stated after the Rice game that, “I’m
glad we re playing Texas in Austin. If
these guys are true Aggies we won’t
have any trouble.”
Despite Metcalf s dislike of com
paring basketball to football, if the
Longhorns are true Longhorns
they’ll be remembering the day after
Thanksgiving and for the first time in
a while they have a motive for ven
geance.
Either the Longhorns were look
ing ahead or perhaps they have been
experiencing trouble winning as
they dropped their game against
TCU Monday night in Ft. Worth,
73-70.
Sonny P scored 34 points and again
picked up ten rebounds in the battle
in the hills.
Prior to the Rice game on Monday
night, Parker was the fourth leading
scorer in die conference with his
20.4 points for the year. He has aver
aged 20.9 points in his six conference
starts this year.
Parker leads the team so far this
year in scoring, conference scoring,
field goal percentage, assists, SWC
assists, turnovers, SWC turnovers,
steals and SWC steals. He also has
the high-point game for the team this
season, scoring 39 points against
Houston Baptist in the Bluebonnet
Tournament in Houston, in which
the Aggies placed third. Sonny P was
named the Most Valuable Player in
the tourney.
Parker has scored in double fig
ures in 14 games and over 20 points
in nine games. He has rebounded in
double figures in six games.
Called by Aggie head coach
Shelby Metcalf, “The best player
I’ve seen in the conference in a long
while, ’ Sonny P has the stats to boost
that.
Sonny came to A&M last year as a
transfer from Mineral Area Junior
College in Flatonia, Missouri. He
had graduated from Chicago Far-
ragut High where he was team co
captain, all-section and all-state
under coach Wardell Vaughn. InJC,
he was twice All-America, and was
the leading scorer and Player-of-
the-Year both years. He was named
the Most Valuable Player in the na
tional Junior College tourney.
In his first year as an Aggie he led
all scorers with a 14.7 ppg average
and was also second in rebounding at
5.9 per game, helping the Aggies to
their first SWC championship since
1970.
For his efforts, last year he was
named to the first team All-SWC by
unanimous vote of the polls. He was
also named the SWC’s most valuable
player and the Associated Press’
Newcomer of the Year. He also was
named to the Associated Press’ All-
District VI team encompassing the
SWC and other Southwest Area
major college teams.
Sonny P hasn’t gotten his due on
All-America teams according to
some observers, but his chances in
crease weekly as he leads the Aggies
to perhaps their second SWC cham
pionship in a row. If he doesn’t get
his due recognition with another, the
pro scouts will be happier. They al
ready know P’s around.

Texas has won only two SWC
games this year, beating Arkansas
and Houston both in Austin. The
Longhorns have lost six, but the two
wins are both against two teams con
sidered contenders. As Metcalf
noted after Rice played inspired ball
against his Ags Monday, “That’s part
of being an Aggie, we bring it out in
everybody.”
