rn 00 '' 'Texas A&M-OSU contest — low

outhue innings.
* s ' I The game was scoreless until
the top of the 14th, when Patti
Holthaus doubled for Texas
A&M. Holthaus went to third on
a throwing error by the OSU
right fielder, and scored on Car
rie Austgen’s bunt single to give
the Aggies a 1-0 victory.
After surviving that opening
game scare, Texas A&M defe
ated the University of Oklaho
ma 8-1 in Friday night’s second
game. The Aggies pounded OU
pitcher Patti Graham for 15 hits,
with Austgen, Iva Jackson, and
Linda Lancaster leading the
offensive attack. Lancaster had
five RBI and two hits in the
game.
The Aggies then defeated
Oklahoma City University and
Kansas to set up the champion
ship game against Louisiana
Tech, a team Texas A&M had
already beaten twice this season.
Lori Stoll was the starting
pitcher for the Aggies, and she
held the Lady Bulldogs hitless
until the seventh inning, when
she gave up her only hit. The
Aggies scored one run in the
fifth to take a 1-0 victory and the
tournament championship.
Lancaster led off the fifth for
Texas A&M with a triple, and
was replaced with pinch-runner
Ann Hadley. Mary Schwind
tried to drag bunt Hadley home,
but was tagged out by the Bull
dog first baseman. Hadley was
unable to advance on the play.
However, Gay McNutt, the
next batter, doubled to center

There is always something, it
seems, that makes the annual
meeting between the Oklahoma
■ Sooners and Texas Longhorns
extra special.
Their yearly confrontation in
the Cotton Bowl doesn’t need
anything extra, since it has long
since developed into one of the
largest hate-fests in the nation
and is played out in the midst of
the State Fair of Texas, where
the fans can gaze at the prize
steers and eat all the greasy fried
chicken and french fries they’ll
ever want before the kickoff.
But as usual, this year’s game
has a twist.
The natives are restless in
Oklahoma this year and if Texas
expands on its current domina
tion the Sooner faithful may be
come downright unfaithful.
The Texas-Oklahoma series
has always been one of streaks.
Bud Wilkinson beat the dickens
out of the Longhorns for years
and then Darrell Royal did the
same to the Sooners and for a
while Barry Switzer kicked
Texas around and now Fred Ak
ers is having all sorts of fun with
Oklahoma.
A tie between the two teams in
1976 ended a five-game Oklaho
ma winning streak and now the
Longhorns have won the last
three and four out of the last
five.
Last year Texas overcame a
14-3 halftime deficit to roll past
Oklahoma, 34-14.
The Longhorns warmed up
last week with a 34-7 thrashing
of Rice while Oklahoma sub
dued Iowa State, 13-3. But losses
to West Virginia and USC — the
latter being the first shutout laid
on the Sooners in ages — have
brought grumbles.
And the Sooners grumble
loudest when they lose to Texas.
The Longhorns will again be
the favorites Saturday in the
Cotton Bowl, where the game
will be played before yet another
sellout throng.
But For all its accumulated
lore, the Texas-Oklahoma affair
does not count in any confer
ence standings and there are
some important SWC games on
the slate next weekend.
The SMU Mustangs will face
their toughest test to date in
trying to stay unbeaten against
the Baylor Bears while the
Arkansas Razorbacks will con
front the suddenly spunky
Texas Tech Red Raiders.
Texas, Arkansas and SMU
have emerged as the major con
tenders for the SWC crown after
the early rounds of action.
Arkansas’ defense put on one
of the better shows in recent
memory at Little Rock last
Saturday night, holding TCU to
two first downs in picking up a
35-0 win.
Razorbacks’ coach Lou Holtz
called it the most complete game
his team has had since he came
to Arkansas. In Texas Tech,
however, the Razorbacks will
face a team riding along on a
very big high.
The Red Raiders knocked off
Texas A&M, 24-15, in the first
conference victory for coach
Jerry Moore since he arrived in
Lubbock last year.
