Longhorn swimmers swamp
Aggie men, women Friday
The Texas Longhorns gave the
Texas Aggies a lesson in aquatics Fri
day night at P.L Downs Natatorium.
The Longhorn men and women,
ranked high in the national standings
this year, took impressive wins de
spite the spirited showing by the
Aggie swimmers.
The Texas men, ranked second
most of the season, defeated the Ags,
65-39, while the Texas women won,

junior Tracy Johnston, who qualified
for the AIAW Nationals with a 2:08.4
time in the 200-meter breast stroke
intermediates.
Johnston led the Aggie women
also by winning the 100-meter back-
stroke in 1:07.29.
Philis Burns was second in the
100-meter freestyle in 51.18 while
Tori Nelson was second in the 500-
meter freestyle with a 5:18 perform
ance.
The men, on the other hand, had a
little more success against the super
ior Longhorn team, as they scored
three individual firsts, led by the
consistent Pat Roche.
Roche, who has led the team all
year, won the 200-meter intermedi
ate in 1:58.8, while Rick Ranzau took
the 100-meter freestyle in 47.9 and

iome fine play. In the first 44
games he started 21 contests, averag
ing 12.2 points, 5.5 rebounds and 3.3
assists with 48 steals.
His numbers have gone up since
he became a starter and he is grow
ing more comfortable on the pro
court.
“I feel very confident about start
ing,” he said. “I can go into the ball
game from the opening tipoff and I
can get into the flow of the ball game.
We’ve been winning and it’s been a
good experience for me to start.”
The Bucks are leading the NBA
Central Division and appear to be
headed for the playoffs once again.
But even on a team laden with
talented players like forward Mar
ques Johnson and center Bob
Lanier, Moncrief still shines brightly
when he is able to do what he can.
That is to get open on the fast
break for a big slam dunk, to steal a
pass and make an assist or even to
rebound with the big men under the
boards because of his fine leaping
ability.
“The only part that was hard to
adjust to was not starting, not being
in the ball game at the start, ” he said.
“As far as publicity, I had all the
publicity I had wanted.
“It was time for some other peo

At Arkansas he became the lead
ing rebounder and scorer in the
school’s history, averaging 22 points
a game his senior year with 9.6 re
bounds.
He played all seven games in the
NBA playoffs as a rookie, upping his
scoring average to 12.4 points and
rebounds to 4.4 a game.
Moncrief feels he is starting to
blossom in the pros because he is
playing more.
“It helps a lot,” he said. “Anytime
a coach puts you into a ball game, the
coaches have confidence in you.
