Looking for some room

[ Tailback Johnny Hector looks for running room on his way to
the Boston College goal-line in Saturday night’s game with
the Eagles. Hector scored the only Aggie touchdown of the
game on the play, but that was not enough as the Eagles beat
the Aggies 13-12. The Ags will host Louisiana Tech at 7:30
p.m. Saturday in the first home game of the year.

Tech comes into its conference

that followed its embarassing 45-

SMU finished its non
conference schedule with an im
pressive 59-27 mauling of Grumb
ling, a game turned into a rout by
the running of Eric Dickerson and
Craig James. Those two players
have combined for more than 800
yards and 14 touchdowns in their
first three outings.
TCU, meanwhile, won its first
game of the year, a 38-16 decision
over Texas-Arlington. The Mus
tangs and Horned Frogs will tang

Worth next Saturday.
The rest of next weekend’s
SWC slate is of an intersectional
nature.
Arkansas, which ran its record
to 2-0 last weekend with a 38-7
conquest of Northwestern, will
meet Mississippi in Jackson.
Houston, a 12-7 loser to Miami,
will return home to face Utah
State. That Miami Hurricane club
will come to Austin for a confron
tation with the Texas Longhorns,
who compiled a less-than-
overwhelming 23-10 win over
North Texas Saturday night.
The Rice Owls, winless after a
42-10 whipping administered by
Missouri, has to go to LSU, and
Texas A&M, which was a 13-12
upset victim at the hands of Bos
ton College, will play Louisiana
Tech in College Station.
Baylor and Tech have a habit of
turning out good games and Teaft
— with his team still struggling —
expects' another one.
“It’s like always,” said Teaff.
“Tech has very good personnel.
I’ve always been a big fan of (Tech
quarterback) Ron Reeves.
“We re ready to start playing for
real now. I’m anxious to see how
we stack up in the league.”

Dolphins hand Oilers
first setback of year, 16-10
United Press International
HOUSTON — Let it be known Don Shula is
firmly in control of the Miami Dolphins and that he is
still pulling the right strings —just in case there is
anyone out there who thinks a coach with 196 NFL
wins is getting too old to keep his grip.
Simla's team bottled up the Houston Oilers and
Earl Campbell Sunday as it is rarely done to beat the
Oilers 16-10 and remain unbeaten in three games.
Despite the awesome defense led by middle
guard Bob Baumhower, Miami might not have been
able to beat Houston in the Astrodome without Don
Strock’s three-yard touchdown pass in the fourth
quarter. Earlier in the game, Shula had benched a
quarterback who led the Dolphins to two wins in
favor of Strock.
Shula did not explain the move except to say
regular, quarterback David Woodley was healthy and
that Strock was more experienced at reading defen
sive movements.
“The Oilers gave us a lot of different coverages and
Strock had more experience,” Shula said.
Second-year pro Woodley started the second half
standing by his coach despite his team leading 9-7 on
three Uwe von Schamann field goals. He had over
thrown several wide-open receivers, had completed
11 of 22 passes and had not been intercepted.
He did not question Shula’s right to make such a
move.
Strock, who had completed 24 of 26 passes in
preseason, came on to complete 7 of 10 passes aganst
the Oilers including the game-winner, an easy 3-
yard toss to running back Audra Franklin with 6:40 to
play.
“I was surprised to go into the game because we
were winning,” Strock said.
The defense, which sacked quarterback Ken Stab
ler eight times and held Campbell to 78 yards on 19
carries, gave Strock the opportunity to win it by
holding Houston inside its 10-yard line late in the
game. Houston’s punt came out to the Miami 49, and
Tommy Vigorito returned it 11 yards to the Houston
40.
On third-and-6, Stock passed 19 yards to Duriel
Harris on the right sideline. Then three plays later
he found Franklin slipping out of the backfield.
Miami offensive guard Bob Kuechenberg, a 12-
year Dolphins veteran, said Shula’s move to Strock
was not surprising at all.
“It may seem bold to you but in baseball if you
have a two-run lead with two innings to go and you
have a Goose Gossage in the bullpen, you use him.
Don Strock has been terrific every time he’s gone
into a game,” Kuechenberg said.
Volleyball team returns home
after California tournament
By GAYE DENLEY
Battalion Staff
A strong 24-school field that in
cluded the 10 top-rated womens’
volleyball teams in the nation
dashed the Aggies’ hopes for a na
tional ranking in last weekend’s
San Diego State Tournament in
San Diego, Calif.
Texas A&M dropped matches
to Pepperdine, UCLA, sixth-
ranked Cal-Poly San Luis Obispo
and Cal-State Fullerton, defeating
only Utah in the three-day event.
UCLA, second in the pre
tournament ratings, won the com
petition and a probable number
one ranking.
Lasting for three games against
UCLA in their second match was
the highlight of the tournament
for the Aggies, Coach Terry Con
don said. Texas A&M bounced
back from a 15-0 trouncing in
game one to take the second
game, 15-11, against the Bruins-
starting lineup. Although UCLA
rebounded to win the third game,
15-8, Condon said she was pleased
with her team’s effort.
“It was good that we went three
games against them, being the
number two-ranked team in the
nation,” she said.
The Aggies dropped their open
er to Pepperdine, 15-11, 15-2, fol
lowed by losses to UCLA and to
Cal-Poly San Luis Obispo, 15-4,
15-2. A 15-13, 15-2 victory over
Utah hinted at an Aggie com
eback, but Cal-State Fullerton si
lenced that threat with a 15-11,
16-14 win in extended play.
“We played up and down,
which is lack of experience, ” Con
don said. “We have a fairly young
team.
Texas A&M kicked off the Cali
fornia road trip with an encourag
ing scrimmage against Long
Beach State last Wednesday. “We
won every time but one they play
ed,” Condon said. “They played
real well. ”
With a 4-6 season record, the
Aggies next face Lamar University
7:30 Wednesday night in G. Rollie
White Coliseum.
