FORT WORTH — With the help
of Deckery Johnson, a rejuvenated
TCU held off a late Houston rally
Tuesday night to win its second
Southwest Conference game in a
row, defeating the Cougars 71-69.
TCU which led for most of the
game, jumped out to a seven-point
advantage with less than five mi
nutes to go in the second half. But
the Cougars whittled the lead down
to one point with 10:18 left on a Ken
Williams jumper from the wing.
Williams had game-high honors with
22 points.
Robert Williams then stole the
ball and drove the length of the court
for a layup to give Houston the lead
— its first since the 13-minute mark
of the first half.
Johnson an All-America junior col
lege player, finished the game with
18 points, hitting eight of 14 from the
field. John Mansbury came off the
bench to hit 15 for TCU and Eric
Summers had 10.
It was the first time TCU, now 7-9
on the year and 2-5 in SWC play, had
won back-to-back conference games
since the 1975-1976 season. That
year the Frogs beat Rice 103-87 in
Fort Worth and then tripped Texas
73-70 at Austin.
Houston is 2-4 in the league.
HOUSTON — A 15-foot jump
shot by Brad Branson with six
seconds to go, combined with a free
throw by Billy Allen with one second
left, climaxed a frantic final minute
Saturday night and gave Southern
Methodist an 85-83 victory over
Rice.

Netters play
in singles title
tournament
Two Aggies, junior Trey Sehutz
and senior Alberto Jimenez, are
among 64 collegians playing in the
NCAA tennis singles Championship
in Houston.
The prestigious tournament is an
invitational event played on indoor
courts. Matches started Tuesday.
A&M tennis coach David Kent
said it was an honor to have two play
ers in the strong field.
“Jimenez won the New Iberia,
La., tournament last September and
then Sehutz won the Cotton Bowl
tournament in Dallas in December.
Both had a great fall season,” said
Kent.
Kent was especially pleased with
Schutz’s progress. The Finance ma
jor from Galveston O’Connell has
advanced from the number three
spot on last year’s Aggie tennis team
to number one on this year’s.
“Trey has improved tremendous
ly,” Kent said. “He’s playing beauti
fully right now. He progressed furth
er than anyone else during the fall.”
Jimenez, an Agricultural Econo
mics major from Bogota, Colombia,
is currently ranked “number two or
three (on the A&M team), it varies
by the week,” said Kent. Reid Free
man, a junior from Dallas who play
ed in the NCAA tournament a year
ago, competes with him for the num
ber two slot.
Jimenez is ranked second in the
men’s division in Colombia. A trans
fer student, he won the men’s junior
college doubles championship in
1977.
The tournament in Houston con
sists of a main draw of 16 contestants.
Both Jimenez and Sehutz will have
to play in a qualifying round to reach
the main draw.
“They may have to play three or
four matches to reach the main
draw,” Kent said.
Kent said the tournament will give
the two some tough competition for
the upcoming SWC season.
Kent called the SWC the toughest
conference in the country. “Last
year we barely missed getting into
the top 20,” he said. “This year we
should break into it, but it will be
harder to improve our position in the
conference.”
The team finished with an 11-11
record last year, which included a
3-5 conference record.
The home season for the netters
begins at against Hardin-Simmons
University on Feb. 2.

Another UNM
basketballer is
out for season
United Press International
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. —
Another starter for the scandal-
ridden University of New Mexico
basketball team has been taken off
the roster because of academic prob
lems.
UNM officials Monday announced
that starting forward Everette Jeffer
son had become ineligible and would
be unable to continue playing
through the rest of the season.
UNM officials said the 6-5 senior

“academic reasons.” Under school
policy, athletes must be in a degree

team who have jplayed continuously
through the season. They are 6-7

lead for the first time in the game
with 2:05 to go at 80-79.
SMU owned an 82-81 lead when
Branson tried to bring the ball in
bounds for the Mustangs. But he
could not get the ball in within the
required five seconds and Rice took
over with 30 seconds to play.
Glen Rieke took advantage of the
opportunity to hit a shot that put
Rice ahead at 83-82 with 10 seconds
remaining.

the Mustangs back in front. After

Allen playing with four fouls for
