Arkansas embarrassed;
Ags go for it tonight
United Press International
LINCOLN, Neb. — Kansas State
can do many things in the defensive
end with its 3-2 zone. But the Wild
cats never thought they could
embarrass an Eddie Sutton-coached
team with it.
“Texas A&M has a good one, but not
like this one.
That’s just what Kansas State did
Thursday night in handing Sutton his
worst defeat in his six years at Arkan
sas, 71-53, to advance to the second-
round of the NCAA Midwest subre
gional against Louisville.
Texas A&M plays Missouri Valley
Conference champion Bradley in
Denton tonight in another subre
gional playoff game. Game time for
the Aggies is 9:30 p.m.
The key for the Wildcats was neut
ralizing All-Southwest Conference
center Scott Hastings, who entered
the game averaging a team-high 16.5
points. Kansas State held Hastings
without a point in the first half and
limited him to eight in the second
before he fouled out with 4:27 left.
The Aggies, 24-7 for the year, will
face a 23-9 Bradley team for the right
to play North Carolina. The winner
of that game — set for 2:37 p.m.
Sunday — will advance to the NCAA
regionals in Houston’s Summit.
Texas A&M advanced to the sub-
regionals by defeating Arkansas, 52-
50, for the Southwest Conference
Tournament crown.
The aggressive Kansas State zone,
spearheaded by senior guard Glenn
Marshall, forced 20 Arkansas turnov
ers and harassed the Razorbacks into
a 37 percent shooting performance.
“We wanted to make it difficult for
Hastings to get the ball,” said Kansas
State coach Jack Hartman. “He’s
very active with a very quick release.
Our goal was to minimize the num
ber of times he’d get the ball inside. ”
Hastings did not get the ball in the
lane until 19:41 remained in the
game and he converted that for his
first basket of the game. He finished
just 3 of 10 from the field. Guard
U.S. Reed, the outside shooting
threat in Hastings’ absence from the
scoring column, hit 8 of 18 shots for a
team-leading 16 points.
Marshall recorded six steals and
also blocked two shots as his Wild
cats beat Arkansas for the second
time this season.
“That’s the best zone I’ve seen this
year,” said Arkansas forward Alan
Zahn, one of only two players in dou
ble figures for the Hogs with 13.
“We played poorly and we shot
poorly,” said Sutton, “and you can’t
do that against a big, physical team
like Kansas State. They can go all the
way if they keep playing like that. ”
Sutton previously lost by 11 points
to both Mississippi and Kentucky for
his worst losses at Arkansas. Both
setbacks came in his first season
there.
AH wants to try again
United Press International
CHICAGO — Standing in the
wings preparing for still another
comeback is former world
heavyweight champion Muhammad
Ali who apparently has agreed to
fight John Tate in Taipei for the
World Boxing Association crown.
Ali, 38, agreed Wednesday to fight
Tate in a bout tentatively scheduled
for late June. A formal contract was
to be signed later.
“The compensation to both fight
ers is a world record for any boxing
match in history,” said Bob Arum,
president of Top Rank. An attorney
for Ali’s manager, Herbert Muham
mad, was quoted in the Chicago Tri
bune as saying the two fighters
would split $14 million.
Ali, who has won the heavyweight
title three times in his career, now
weighs 266 pounds and began train
ing Tuesday in Deer Lake, Pa.

Softball team putting
2-0 record on the line
“It was tough moving the ball
around the perimeter against them,
much less shooting it. They always
had a guy in your face when you
wanted to put it up. They play great
defense. ”
By JOHN BRASHER
Sports Reporter
After defeating No. 1- ranked
Texas Women’s University in a dou
ble-header last Friday, the Texas
A&M women’s softball team takes its
2-0 record to Denton today for a re
match against TWU in a three-game
series before heading to the West
Coast for a very important road trip.
The Aggies, currently ranked
fourth in the nation, will be on the
road for a week to face six teams.
Some of the games will be against the
nation’s top ranked teams, putting
A&M’s national ranking in jeopardy.
Head softball coach Bill Galloway
realizes the importance of the road
trip and said, “If we go on this road
trip and win at least six games, we
could probably still be right there in
the rankins and that will enhance
our chances of going to nationals. ”
After the three-game set with
TWU, whom the Ags have never
beaten in Denton, the Aggies will
pack their gear and head to the West
Coast. The Ag s first opponent will
be No. 2-ranked UCLA, last year’s
national champions.
Galloway figures UCLA will be
the toughest team on the road trip
and said, “UCLA is a very experi
enced veteran squad. They didn’t
lose a player oft last year’s team and
their pitching staft is incredible.
They only allowed 3 runs in nine
games at the national championship
tournament last year."
After leaving UCLA, the Aggies
will play a double-header against
Golden West Community College
before facing No. 8-ranked Califor
nia State-Fullerton in another
double-header.
According to Galloway, Fullerton
is a strong offensive team and has
outstanding hitting. But Galloway
hopes to combat their offensive
attack with his two young pitchers,
sophomore Shan McDonald and
freshman Lori Stoll.
After the brief showdown with
Fullerton, the Aggies will then travel
to Chapman College for a two-game
set before facing No. 5-ranked Cali
fornia Polytechnic at Pomona, in
what will be the team’s final two
games of the road trip.
The Aggies are as healthy as they’v
been all year and Galloway added
the team is in excellent mental shape
also. “Since our leand
(four freshmen, fivejJ
four juniors and (
needed something to J
deuce because of ourto
and the two wins (%,
