Women lose thriller
to Abilene Christian
By RITCHIE PRIDDY
Battalion Staff
The Texas A&M women’s bas
ketball team dropped its second
close game in a row Tuesday night
as the Abilene Christian Universi
ty Wildcats defeated the Ags 63-61
in G. Rollie White Coliseum.
The Aggies trailed by two at the
half, 34-32, and seemed in a posi
tion to pull the game out. The
Wildcats connected on only 20
percent of their shots from the
field the first half, while the Aggies
hit 39.3 percent.
The first eight minutes of the
second half decided the outcome
of the game as the Wildcats
jumped out to a 14-point lead. The
Ags battled back and with just
under a minute left in the game
cut their lead to 62-61.
The Aggies got the ball back
with 11 seconds left but lost it on a
bad pass to end the threat.
“We played well except for the
first eight minutes of the second
half,” commented Head Coach
Cherri Rapp. “We had a chance to
win it, we just had too far to come
back.”
Rapp singled out Sheryl Clark
and Joyce Bottley for their heads-
up play.
“Sheryl really played well,
especially defensively. Joyce play
ed good, setting our offense up.
We’re real pleased with both of
them,” Rapp said.
Clark connected for 15 points,
as did Tammy Grafton, to lead the
Aggies. duRae Gill finished the
night with nine points and Cathy
Fuller pitched in eight points.
Wildcat Bonnie Buchanan, who
is 6-5, was high-scorer for the
game with 22 points.
The Aggies finished the night
shooting 35.2 percent while the
Wildcats finished at 35.9 percent
from the field.
The women’s record drops to
7-20 with the loss. They return to
action Feb. 27 when they will take
the court against the University of
Nebraska in G. Rollie White.

Here’s the difference
between a bank’s
interest-bearing
checking account
and ours:
Ours pays 5.47%
effective annual yield.
Theirs pays 5.39% (or, in
some cases, much less).
MoneyStore was the first interest-bearing checking account in the
Brazos Valley. And it’s still the best. Look at these features:
• $300 Minimum Balance (not $500, $600, $700, $1,000 or $1,200).
You pay no service charges at Brazos Savings if you maintain only a $300
minimum balance.
• Maximum interest—Regardless of Balance. MoneyStore pays you
5 1 /4% interest, compounded continuously, on your balance (an effective
annual yield of 5.47%). Even if your balance drops below $300, you earn
maximum interest on your funds.
• Telephone Bill Paying at No Extra Cost. With your authorization,
MoneyStore will pay some of your bills direct. Just call us, tell us who to pay,
how much and when. Keep your funds earning interest until you need to pay
your bills. (On telephone bill paying, we pay the postage. If we miss a due
date through our error, we pay the late fee.)
• Overdraft Protection. Brazos Savings has automatic overdraft pro
tection for qualifying MoneyStore customers. And it costs you nothing —
until you use it.
It’s easy to open a MoneyStore checking account.
And we’ll pay you to use it.
