Aggies defeat Frogs

BATTALION SPORTS EDITOR
Steve Jones found the range early

feated Texas Christian University
last night 79-60.
The two Houston forwards
pumped in 23 points apiece in lead
ing the Aggies to their fourth
Southwest Conference(SWC) win.
Both Jones and Foreman hit a blis
tering 60 per cent from the field.
“I could have scored 50 points to
night if I hadn’t gotten into foul
trouble,” an elated Jones said. “I
was hot tonight.”
and Willie Foreman.
“Willie is a fine all around ath
lete,” coach Shelby Metcalf said.
“He has the tools to become a great
basketball player. We are all very
pleased with Willie’s progress.
“This victory is a just reward for a
lot of hard work. Our players de

serve some success.
The Aggies as a team were hot as
well. The team connected on 49 per
cent of its shots. TCU, on the other
hand, hit a miserable 30 per cent.

One individual who has been
struggling with success lately is
Wally Swanson. Last night Swanson
found his long lost friend as he
scored 12 points and collected 12
rebounds. Wally scored most of his
points down underneath the basket.
The sophomore forward broke loose
on numerous occasions, having easy
baskets if the ball was passed to
him.
Dave Goff, who played with a
case of the flu, had seven assists to
his credit for the evening. The fast
freshman battled the flu all night
long. It was not known until game
time whether Goff was to play or
not.
Another key figure for the Aggies
against the Horned Frogs was Steve
Sylestine. Sylestine had seven
Because of Goffs illness, the
Texas Aggies were weak in the
turnover department. The sensa
tional freshman usually guides the
Aggie attack with a minimal number
of errors. Last night the Ags had 23
turnovers to TCU’s 12. This was the
only facet of the game in which the
Horned Frogs defeated the Ags.

Steve Jones drives hard to the basket in the final quarter of
play last night against the TCU Horned Frogs, but the referee
thought he was too aggressive and charged Jones with his
fifth foul of the night. Jones left the game, tied with Willie
Foreman for the Aggie high scorer, with 23 points.
There’s not much to talk about as
far as bass fishing goes these days.
The weather has kept the fishing
pretty messed up on most area
lakes.
Lake Conroe seems to be the best
bet right now, but that could change
at any moment with another strong
cold front. Shiloh Marina reports
that several four and five pound fish
have been brought in the past
couple of days, and it seems to be
picking up a little. Some of the fish
have been caught in fairly shallow
water, 4-7 feet, on spinnerbaits and
crankbaits. A few have come from
20-25 feet water along the creeks.
Sam Rayburn has had a rough
winter as far as bass fishing goes,
and things haven’t picked up much.
Most of the larger fish are still com
ing from the river channel and are
taken on worms and spoons. Hank’s
Creek Marina reports a few fish
being taken on crankbaits in shal
lower water (8-10 feet), but they are
running small. About the only
bright spot for Sam Rayburn this
winter has been great crappie fish
ing, but even that has gotten slow
lately.

The Aggies next home game is
Saturday night against Rice. The
Owls have a similar team to the TCU
Horned Frogs. It is not a good team,
yet one which can beat you on any
given day.
Lake Livingston was producing
very slow fishing last weekend^
mostly because of extremely muddy
water conditions. The Aggie Bass
Club held a tournament there
Saturday and Sunday, and many
members went home with no fish. A
total of four fish were weighed in
during the tournament, one Satur
day and three Sunday. Jimmy and
Joe Janac won the tournament with
one bass weighing 5 lbs., 13 oz.
Second place went to Wendell and
Mark Pool with one fish weighing 5
lbs, 5 oz. Tommy Nuche and Tom
Bennett took third place with two
fish totaling about 2V / 2 lbs. There
was no clear water to be found any
where in Livingston, and the bass
were about as hard to find. There
was a report in the Lake Livingston
sports newspaper that the lake was
beginning to clear above the Jungle
area, but someone obviously got
their information wrong.
Game time will be at 7:30, with
no women’s game scheduled to pro
ceed it. If the Aggies can play with
as much wreckless abandon as they
did against the Froggies, then the
Owls are in for a long evening of run
and gun.

A halftime adjustment and strong
inside shooting were the two ingre
dients which enabled the Texas
A&M women’s basketball team to
come from behind and defeat Prarie
View A&M 72-64. The victory gives
the Texas Aggies an 8-6 record for
the season.
These mistakes allowed the Texas
Aggies to erase a seven-point lead.
With five minutes remaining in the
game Susan Kimbro dropped in a 13
foot jump shot. This two pointer

“We were in a zone defense the

the second half we made a defensive
adjustment by playing them man-

“This type of defense is what the
girls are used to playing and it
picked up the game speed in the
second half.”
