Now the year begins
By PAUL ARNETT
Battalion Sports Editor
The Texas A&M basketball team
will find out just how good they
are this weekend. They play Oral
Roberts University in Tulsa, Okla.
“They are good. . .real good,”
coach Shelby Metcalf said. “You
know if they can beat West Texas
State by 17 points, then they are a
team to be reckoned with. We
know that we are going to have to
play our best game of the season to
beat them.”
The Aggies raised their record to
4-0 Tuesday night, defeating Sam
Houston State 95-73. Metcalf is
hopeful his team will be 5-0 after
the ORU contest.
“We think that we have a good
ball club right now,” Metcalf said.
“Our progress as a team has been
real good. The kids have put a lot

of effort into each and every game.
“These first four games allowed
us to get a good look at everybody.
Now we are ready to find out just
how good we are.”
Senior and captain Willie Fore
man had his best game of the sea
son against Sam Houston State. He
said that it was a tune-up game for
Oral Roberts.
“I had a lot more concentration
against Sam Houston,” Foreman
said. “We have to get ready for
Oral Roberts. We know that they
are going to be tough, but I think
that we will be ready for them.”
For the Aggies to do well in
Tulsa, Foreman will have to play
his best.
“Willie has been progressing
right along,” Metcalf said. “It
makes a coach feel good to see his
seniors progressing because he
knows that his younger players are
progressing as well.”
Vernon Smith is one of those
younger players who is progressing
veiy well. The freshman from Dal
las is the Ags’ leading scorer. He is
averaging just over 17 points a
game.
“If Vernon keeps his good at
titude then he will keep helping
us,” Metcalf said. “Right now he
just wants to play good basketball.
