2-2 tie Saturday at Cain Field.
Chantel Fougeron, awing, scored
the first goal of the game to give the
Ags a 1-0 lead. Melanie Felger, an
inside wing, then made it 2-0 for the
Ags before the Lumberjacks started
their rally which left the game in a
deadlock by halftime. The two teams
decided to call it quits after the
scoreless second half, rather than
play an overtime in the near freezing
weather.
Aggie coach Alan Heath said the
two teams have agreed to a rematch,
to be played in April.
The Ags’ season record is now 1-0-
1, and they have a 3-0-2 record
against SFA for the past two semes
ters.
SOFTBALL
The Texas A&M women’s softball
team pulled off a stunning upset Fri
day afternoon by sweeping Texas
Women’s University in a double-
header at Bee Creek Park in College
Station. The Ags won their season
opener, 1-0, and completed the
sweep with a 2-1 win in the nightcap.
The teams postponed their other
double-header, which was to have
been played Saturday, to Friday at
Denton.
Melody Prichard knocked in the
Aggies’ only run in the first game and
Shan McDonald spaced four hits in
the opener.
Lori Stoll tossed a two-hitter in the
second game and third baseman
Maria Resendez drove in the win
ning run in the ninth inning for the
fourth-ranked Ags.
“We lost to them in the state finals
last season, ’ McDonald said. “So we
really wanted to get them. If we beat
them in Denton this weekend,
there’s no doubt that we re the num
ber one team.”
RUGBY
The Texas A&M rugby team play
ed the Dallas Harlequins to a 4-4
draw Saturday on the drill field.
Ross Morgan, a senior manage
ment major, scored the Ags’ only try
early in the first half to give them the
lead. A try is worth four points. The
Harlequins tied the score before
halftime and the two teams engaged
in a defensive battle in the scoreless
second half to end the game in a tie,
which left the Ags with a 1-1-2 record
on the season.
The Harlequins’ second team beat
the Ags’ second side 16-3 in a game
played later in the afternoon.
The Ags were trying to avenge a
humiliating 48-0 drubbing the
Harlequins gave them in Dallas last
season. Morgan said both teams had
their chances to win the game, but
bad breaks and the weather pre
vented a victory for either team.
“Both teams missed their three-
point conversion kicks after their
tries,’’ Morgan said. “And both
teams missed penalty kicks. One of
theirs bounced off a goal post and one
of ours died in the wind just before
getting there.”

OGDEN, Utah — Weber State
plays Lamar Thursday in the open
ing round of the NCAA West tourna
ment, and coach Neil McCarthy
knows his 16th-ranked Wildcats will
have to play better than they did in
clinching the Big Sky Conference
post-season playoffs.
A sluggish Wildcat team, unable
to pick up the tempo or to penetrate
a defiant Montana defense, eked out
a 50-42 win against the Grizzlies
THE BATTALION Page 7
MONDAY, MARCH 3, 1980
Saturday night to secure the NCAA
berth in their Dee Events Center.
The Grizzlies effectively used a
slow-down offense to keep Weber
State’s score down and frustrate the
Wildcat attack.
In the first half, the Wildcats
seemed unable to adapt to the slower
pace. Weber State fell behind quick
ly and trailed 26-20 at the half.
Then McCarthy urged his team to
penetrate to the basket for the high-
percentage shot.

BYU, 24-4, as the Selection Commit
tee decided to pick four and five
teams from other conferences such

“I feel badly for my players,” said
Haskins. “I just can’t believe that the
committee went four and five deep

were picked. ”
