But plenty of room for improvement Wilson pleased with team’s comeback By RITCHIE PRIDDY Sports Editor Head coach Tom Wilson con tinued his praise for the Aggies for their win over the California Gol den Bears Monday in his weekly press conference. However, he did stress the point that there were several areas his team needed to improve on. “Looking back I’m elated be cause it is so very important to start off on a positive note. I’m very happy that our team was able to come back from the 28-16 half time deficit. That says a lot about our team. At the same time though, I’m disappointed we put ourselves in the position to have to come back like that. ’’ Wilson was talking about the big plays the defense gave up the first half to the high-powered Cali fornia offense. The Bears passed their way to 28 first-half points be fore the Aggies came alive and all but shut down their offense in the final half. AUTO INSURANCE. FOR AGGIES: Call: George Webb Farmers Insurance Group 3400 S. College 823-8051 “Our defense gave up some big plays the first half. We gave them some easy plays — trick plays and that sort — that they turned into big plays. We made some early mistakes which we corrected and turned the game completely around. But, there is plenty of room for improvement.’ Wilson said the offensive line played extremely well much of the game and made few mistakes. The fact that the Aggies had only one penalty the entire game, that com ing on a personal foul on the de fense, and none on the offensive unit is attributed to the intelli gence of the linemen Wilson said. “We had very few penalties, very few mental mistakes and very few busted assignments. A lot of that has to do with the poise and intelligence of the linemen. “The offensive line dominated the line of scrimmage the entire game and established a strong running game early.” ALLEN Oldsmobile Cadillac Honda SALES - SERVICE “Where satisfaction is standard equipment” 2401 Texas Ave. 779-3516 Tk ►ttatte: o Prescriptions Filled Glasses Repaired 216 N.

Open ing huge holes for Johnny Hector and Earnest Jackson throughout the entire game the play of the offensive line was one of the keys to the victory. Both Hector and Jackson finished with 125 yards apiece de spite not playing the entire game. Jackson had 120 yards the first half alone. Adams agreed with Wilson that the line dominated the game, saying that they knew they could move the ball against the Bears. “We had a feeling when we were out there that we were going to score.

Time how good it is. We’ll probablyse a lot of people picking up differej facets of the offense.” “They were running even when the holes weren’t there. They were running over people and running hard,” offensive guard Kent Adams said. “We had a lot of scoring oppor tunities we muffed up, otherwise we could have scored 40 or 50 points,” center David Bandy said, summing up the Aggies’ offensive game. The Aggie defense proK couldn’t agree more withWik “We found out that we have a couple of super running backs in Hector and Jackson,” Wilson said. “We knew that all along, though. Both are very exciting and danger ous. They can do it all — inside and outside. Wilson said that without the mistakes that plaqued the Aggies in the first half that they could have easily have taken the lead before the half. “The run and shoot offense ij| linebackers nightmare. We couldn’t keep up with their',51 160-pound receivers. But, ’w give them 14 points on theiraai show. Twenty-eight, though- that’s a nutcracker,’ line!®! Mike Little said. “We were able to see the versat- ality of Jackson (because the Bears were keying on Hector most of the game). That guy’s a tremendous player. “We had several situations in which we should have got some more points on the board. The drive just before the half (A&M drove down to the Bear 11 before the drive was halted by an inter ception in the endzone) we should have scored.

Soccer team excited in ’8 d By FRANK L. CHRISTLIEB Battalion Staff Coach Telmo Franco of the Texas A&M University men’s soc cer team speaks optimistically ab out his 1981-82 team. He believes his team, which finished third in the Southwest Conference Soccer League last year, will make a se rious bid this year for the league crown. “It is realistic to think that we may win the conference this year,” Franco said. “We have some players with game experi ence and some new players com ing in with good ability. The extramural club traveled Saturday to LeTourneau College in Longview to play its first match of the season, and came away with a 6-0 win over the Yellowjaekets. Coach Franco felt his team played well against LeTourneau, a varsity team which won the NAIA region al championship last year. The Aggies scored nine minutes into the match when striker Neto Walsh scored after the hall was deflected off LeTourneau goal keeper Jeff Gibbs. Walsh scored again three minutes later, giving Texas A&M a 2-0 halftime lead. At the five-minute mark of the second half, Paul Winston scored to increase the Aggie lead, and 31 minutes later, freshman Carlos Gutierrez scored on a rebound off the shot of teammate Juan Madalengoita.
