Head coach Cherri Rapp was not
ireatly pleased with her team’s
iffort, though. “We just played very
doppily,” she said. “We took SMU a
need for me unsettle too lightly.”
/ be corrected,Bj 1 “We just weren’t mentally ready
stribution plank to play- After we beat Texas Tech (on
t the studentsn Monday) we thought we were
ie Athletic Depatftreat,” said Rapp. “We never really
pave played consistently. ”
ss who’s doingtij i: There were some bright spots,
to put thebkmejBbough. “Lori Foreman is playing
dG. Rollieatg®petter,” Rapp said. Indeed, Fore-
ne and no wastaijitoan scored 26 points for A&M in the
l?game. Peggy Pope’s 10 points was
id after last nigKiP>e next highest figure for the Ags.
; this place anGi Foreman connected on 12 of 16 shots
from the floor for a blistering 75 per
cent. She also had five rebounds and
a blocked shot.
Cathy Fuller was the Aggies lead
ing rebounder with eight. Lisa
Hughes and Kelley Sullivan each
had six rebounds. Hughes passed out
eight assists in the game.
Meanwhile, the Mustangs proved
not quite the team they have been
proclaimed to be by the Metroplex
area sports They did not play badly
but could not even keep up with a
faltering Aggie attack. Carol
Blauvelst led Mustang scorers with
18 points and Kim Nowak was the
Ponies’ leading rebounder with six.
A&M hit 46.8 percent of its shots
from the field but could only hit 56.5
percent of the free throws awarded
the team. “Our free throws are just
terrible,” said Rapp. “We missed the
front end of several one-and-ones.
You ought to get two missed
attempts every time you miss the
one of those.”
SMU, after hitting a miserable
30.4 percent from field in the first
half, improved its shot selection in
the second half and ended the night
with a figure of 44 percent. From the
charity line they hit 75 percent. The
Aggies outrebounded hem 36 to 27
and more than doubled their num
ber of assists, 16-7.
The Aggies will play in the Mean
Green Classic this weekend in De
nton. They will play Texas Women’s
University in the first round of the
tourney and if they win will play the
survivor of the North Texas State-
Arkansas matchup.
A&M has also been seeded third
in the 14-team state tournament.
The Ags will open play in College
Station against the University of
Texas-Arlington on Feb. 16. The
game will be played immediately fol
lowing the afternoon men’s game vs.
Texas.

victory over the TCU Horned Frogs.
Texas beat TCU by 30 points when
the two teams met in Austin earlier
this season. This time the Longhorns
opened a 10-point lead midway
through the first half, but the
Homed Frogs rallied to trail by only
four at intermission, 35-31.
The Longhorns opened a nine
point advantage early in the second
half, but TCU cut the lead to five
points and had a chance to move to
within three before turning the ball
over.
Then, for the next five minutes,
Texas outscored TCU, 16-4, to put
the game out of reach. Thompson
and Johnson scored 11 of the 16
points.
Texas increased its Southwest
Conference record to 7-5, moving to
within a half game of third-place
Texas Tech. TCU, in last place,
slumped to 2-10. The Longhorns are
14-8 for the year and TCU 7-14.
Johnson scored only four points in
the first half and Thompson was held
scoreless. But Johnson finished with
17 and Thompson scored 12. John
Danks led Texas in scoring witb 22.
Eric Summers paced the Horned
Frogs with 17.

Barry picked up the loose ball and
was fouled to set up his game-
pinching points. New Jersey cut the
I had to say, fin final deficit to one with a three-point
al by Roger Smith at the buzzer.
The game was tied at the half, 57-
57, but Houston took a seven-point
ad going into the final quarter by
Jding the Nets to seven field goals
the third quarter.

AUSTIN — Gov. Bill Clements
announced Wednesday he had
granted parole to former Dallas
Cowboys star Bob Hayes, and that
he had urged the former all-pro re
ceiver to use his experience to help
youngsters refrain from drug use.
If Hayes is set free in March, as
recommended by the Board of Par
dons and Paroles, he will have
served 11 months of a 5-year sent
ence. He pleaded guilty last summer
to a drug charge and before sentence
was passed a long string of character
witnesses — including Cowboys
coach Tom Landry — testified in
Hayes’ behalf.
Clements said the circumstances
behind Hayes’ parole application
were not unique. He also said he
talked with W.J. Estelle, the direc
tor of the Texas Department of Cor
rections, before signing the parole
papers and that there had been no
efforts from any quarter to prevent
Hayes’ release.
