Texas A&M women s volleyball
team will fly to Provo, Utah today to
compete in the Association of Inter
collegiate Athletics for Women
(AIAW) National Volleyball Cham
pionship.
This is the first time the Aggie
women have reached the AIAW Na
tionals in the five-year history of
A&M women’s volleyball program.
The top 24 teams in the nation
will be divided into four pools of six
teams each, with the top two
finishers from each pool advancing
to the finals of this three-day tour
nament.
A&M begins play Thursday morn
ing against fourth seeded Pepper-
dine University. Later that day the
unseeded Aggies meet Northern
Kentucky University and Maryland.
Friday the Aggies play host
Brigham Young University, seeded
fifth in the tournament, and Port
land State University.
If the Aggie women come out of
their pool to qualify for the quarter
finals, A&M will be among the top
eight collegiate teams in the coun
try.
Lamar and the University of
Houston are the only other Texas
teams which qualified for this year’s
Nationals. They are seeded seventh
and eighth, respectively.
The University of Southern
California is the tournament s top
seed, with UCLA seeded second
and University of Hawaii seeded
third.
The Aggies finished among the
top four teams in eight of the nine
tournaments they competed in this
season, and won the Lamar In
vitational Tournament in early Oc
tober.
A&M beat Lamar in two out of
four matches this year. Against
Houston the Aggies were narrowly
defeated three games to two'in both
matches.
The stepping stone to Nationals is
the AIAW Regional Tournament, in
which the top finishers automati
cally qualify for Nationals.
A&M finished third in its regional
tournament, but was picked to go to
Nationals based on its state record,
and on its performances against na
tionally ranked Lamar and Houston.
For the Aggies to advance to the
quarterfinals at Nationals, they have
to beat either Pepperdine or
Brigham Young, the two seeded
teams in their pool. And A&M
Coach Dave Schakel says this will
be no easy task.
Both teams have a three-inch
height advantage over the Aggies,
both have played at nationals be
fore, and both have their same
players back from the past two
years, Schakel said.
The Aggies play both Pepperdine
and Brigham Young early in the
morning and Schakel said he thinks
that’s to A&M’s advantage “because
we might catch one of them nap-
ping.”
While Pepperdine and Brigham
Young are both experienced teams,
A&M has three starters new to the
team this year. Donna Branch, a
transfer from San Jacinto Junior Col
lege, is one of A&M’s starting out
side blockers, and a consistent all-
around performer, Schakel saii

TIIlITTTIITIIIMIHirr
United Press International
NEW YORK — Earl Campbell,
unbeaten Texas University s 220-
pound running back with an explo
sive “second effort” reminiscent of
Jimmy Brown, was honored today as
the United Press International’s col
lege football player of the year.
The 22-year-old native of Tyler,
Tex., whose relentless pounding at
rival lines enabled Texas to finish
the season as the only perfect-
record team in the country and
made him the favorite to win the
Heisman Trophy, was a runaway
winner in the annual post-season
voting by sports writers and sports
casters around the country.
Campbell received 36 votes com
pared to five for running back Terry
Miller of Oklahoma State and three
for tight end Ken McAfee of Notre
Dame.
Similar in build to former star
Jimmy Brown, the 6-foot, 1-inch
Campbell displayed the same ability
to “make a second effort” in the lan
guage of football. He made some of
his most spectacular and important
runs after seemingly being stopped
at the line of scrimmage or
short gain by maintaining hi
ance and jolting forward a si
time.
Campbell’s season statistics
that he carried the hall 267 tin
11 games and gained 1,744 yar
an average of 6.5 yards per cami
158.5 per game while scoring
touchdowns. Charles Alexandei
