The Aggie Ladies basketball team
Itas upset last night in its first game
the Texas East Zone Tournament.
Fifth-seeded Texas Southern Uni-
versity defeated the third-seeded
Aggies 64-61 in Sam Houston Col
iseum in Huntsville.
| As they did in Monday’s game
ainst Sam Houston State, the Ag
es got off to a sluggish start. Very
ivof their shots Fell, and they were
t able to get their share of re-
mnds.
Texas Southern is just faster than
Aggie coach Wanda Bender
id. “They were able to get down
e court quicker and get inside for
e rebounds.
|Pat Werner kept the Aggies in the
|me during the first half. Werner
lored 10 points for the Ladies in
|e first 20 minutes. But TSLi’s an-
ler to Werner was in the form of
Deb Redo, who scored 12 first half
points.
The aggressive play of Werner
and Redo left both of them with
three fouls as they went into the
locker room for halftime. Unfortu
nately for the Aggies, Werner
fouled out in the second half and
Redo did not.
“Pat played a great game, she just
got into foul trouble early,’ Bender
said. “It might have been a different
ball game if I could have left her in.”
“I was very proud of our seniors,
Denise Bettis and Karen Muskiet.
They came in at the end of the first
half and did a good job. They
brought us back and we were down
at halftime by only two points.’’
TSU led at halftime 30-28. At one
point in the second half, TSU led by
eight. Von Bunn quickly narrowed
that margin with five straight bas
kets; however, she was not able to
score a bucket that would have tied
the game in the final seconds.
“They really keyed on Von in the
second half,” the Aggie coach said.
“After she got open for those first
five shots, they really started de-
fensing her.”
Bunn led the Aggies’ scoring ef
forts with 18 points. Werner scored
12 points before her fifth foul and
Sheree Christian added 11 points.
The leading acorer for the game was
TSU’s Redo with 22.
One of the big edges TSU had in
the game was their ability to out-
rebound the Aggies. TSU had 55
rebounds while A&M had only 33.
Bender said that this loss greatly
decreases the Aggies’ chances of
going to the state tournament in San
Angelo.
“The very best we can come out
of this tournament is in fifth place,”
Bender said. “I don’t think that will
be good enough to take us to the
state tournament. You usually have
to finish at least third in this tour
nament to go to the state tourna
ment.
The Aggies will play the winner of
the University of Houston-Praire
View A&M game today at 3 p.m. If
they win that game, the Aggies will
play the winner of the Lamar-Rice
game on Saturday.
