We just need some size and some tough ness.” April 14 is the first day a re cruit can sign a letter-of-intent with a college. Metcalf cited Woodley for his contribution to the team after Jones’ injury. After the victory at Rice, Metcalf began using a three-guard starting lineup con sisting of Woodley, Naulls and Roberts, while Woods and Riley were under the basket. “Claude really came along, but I guess you’d have to single out Milton for the job he did,” Metcalf said. “He really drew some tough assignments guard ing the Ricky Pierces and Terry Teagles. He’s really done well for us since he’s been here. “Basically, it was a new team and I think they worked real hard and were highly competi tive. I think the most we ever lost in a row was two games — we never got in a slump.” First-year assistant coach John Thornton said the Aggies overcame a great deal of adver sity at the start of the season. “When we started the year, we had a couple of guys quit the team (sophomore Ethan Glass and freshman Sonny Burton) and then Roy got hurt,” Thorn ton said. “We handled the situa tions, and I think that spoke highly of the team. I think the players responded well.” team clinches with 7-0 finish Shannon Murray, with Rose Ruffino and Karen Guerrero on base, was good for two runs. Carrie Austgen then scored Iva Jackson, w'ho had been inten tionally walked, from third base with a single. Murray stole home for the Aggies’ final run. The victory gave the Aggies their first tournament title of the season, and boosted their spring record to 15-1. Stoll is 8-1 with three perfect games and McDo nald is 5-0. ^ 'v MSQ r 5^.
