Third-ranked Ags
to face Mustangs
By JON HEIDTKE
Sports Reporter
The Aggie Ladies, fresh off a satis
fying 66-64 win over Texas Tech,
host Southern Methodist University
tonight at 5:30 in the first game of a
Mustang doubleheader. The men’s
team will play at 8 p.m.
The Ponies are the ninth-ranked
team in the state and come into
tonight’s contest with a 14-9 record.
“They (SMU) have a real quick and
aggressive team,” said head coach
Cherri Rapp, “and they will play us
tough.”
The Ponies boast the state’s lead
ing free-throw shooter in Lisa Davis,
who is hitting 85 percent of her tos
ses for the year. Kim Nowak leads
the team in rebounding with an aver
age of nine a game and Wendy Trus-
key is fourth in the state in steals with
an average of 3.4 thefts a contest.
The Aggies received good news
Tuesday when they were informed
they would be the number three
seed in the state tournament, behind
Texas and Stephen F. Austin.
“Hopefully, the fact that we are
the third best team in the state will
inspire us to play well,” said Rapp.
The number three seed insures
the Aggies the home court advantage
in the first round of the state tourna
ment.
“Hopefully we will peak now and
during the tournament,” Rapp said.
Following this game the Aggies’
next chance to play will come Friday
and Saturday in Denton. The Ags
compete in the Mean Green Classic
hosted by North Texas State Univer
sity.
Rapp formerly coached at North
Texas State and when she left there
for Texas A&M she brought Ag cen
ter and leading scorer Lori Foreman
with her. The Aggie women have
already defeated NTSU this year in
College Station.
