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.

“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.”

Indeed, the line could do
almost anything at will against the

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

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.

Mike Little said.
“We were able to see the versat-

game). That guy’s a tremendous
player.
“We had several situations in

Soccer team excited in ’8

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. The Aggies went
on to score two more goals in shut-
