Basketball—in the spring
By DAVID BOGGAN
Battalion Sports Staff
It miglit be the biggest, but head
football coach Emory Bellard s
spring training is not the only off
season athletic program on the
Texas A&M campus.
Wanda Bender, women’s basket
ball coach, will open her first spring
training program at Texas A&M on
Monday, April 3.
"This might be new to the girls
here at A&M, but it won’t be new to
me, Bender said. She sees certain
advantages to holding workouts in
the spring as well as in the fall.
“In the spring we can work on in
dividual weaknesses without having
to worry about preparing for a
game,” the Aggie coach said. "In
this process, we can look at last sea
son’s statistics, find out where each
girl is weak and work in this area for
the four weeks of spring training.
Then, I would expect them to work
over the summer and come back in
the fall ready to play basketball.”
Bender has a list of general weak
nesses that she saw in her team last
season. She hopes that work in
these areas will improve the team’s
19-18 record that the team posted in
Bender’s premier season with the
Aggies.

sively,” Bender said. “We will work
hard on our-man-to-man defense,
our fast break techniques and our
shooting.
"We set a goal for ourselves last
fall. It was a goal that was well
within our reach. We wanted to
achieve a berth in the regional tour
nament. We lost out on our goal by
two points. We allowed Lamar to
beat us in the zone tournament
58-56, and more than anything,
these three problems were respon
sible.
“In the last few seconds of that
game, if our man-to-man defense
would have been as good as it
should have been, would have fulfil
led our goal. We missed some fast
break situations also in that game.
And our shooting percentage needs
to improve. We got the shots in
the game against Lamar, we just
couldn’t hit them.
"This is not going to happen to us
next year,” Bender said. “We ended
up tied for seventh place in the state
of Texas, out of 38 large colleges.
That isn’t bad, but it’s not where I’d
like to be.
Spring training will also serve as a
tiyout period for women on campus
who are interested in being a

HOUSTON — If Linda Williams
was not so confident, she probably
would rather have a courtroom re
match with the University In
terscholastic League than to stand
judgment again before the 12 male
teammates on her high school
baseball team.
Returned to the baseball diamond
earlier this week by federal court
order and against the rules of the
UIL, Williams, 18, Wednesday be
came the first Texas girl to challenge
the governing body of high school
sports and play in a hoys baseball
game.
With one day of prac tice behind
her. Coach Lugene Jones sent
Williams to right field in front of a
more experienced boy, and she
failed.
Williams committed a four-run
error on her only tough fielding
play. She went hitless in two official
at-bats and she sagged dejectedly on
the bench after her team was beaten
7-0.
