TCU jumps on Aggies to win, 67-50

Fbr the first five minutes of
m , ! foits A&M’s game with TCU
fuesday, the Aggies pic ked up

Candid 11 nlin S-
ihel’nvTw 111 by the time I exas A&M
i in Col inijhed its game with TCU, the
a^Bes were walking and
|. ks ., aw ing.
*?3$^B>a\vking at Doug Arnold,
da. is.
Arnold almost single-
i plans janoedly brought the Horned
S Rudiloys back from an early 11-
imi deficit and led TCU to a
7-50 victory over fexas A&M.
Arnold scorched the nets for
“CAoints on 10 of 18 shooting
I Ai the field. He scored the
f % rsl 11 TCU points of the game,
, ut his 15 rebounds were a more
JTnportant factor in the early
I [.age n of the game.
While Texas A&M held a
brief lead over the Frogs early in
the first half, the Aggies were
grabbing twice as many re
bounds as TCU. But after
Arnold took the role of Chair
man of the Board(s) at the mid
way point of the half, the Frogs
ran away from the Aggies.
Another factor for the
Horned Frogs was the job done
at the free-throw line. TCU was
a perfect 19 for 19 from the line
wliile Fexas A&M was 8 for 15.
About the only bright spot
for the Aggies Tuesday was the
hot hand of freshman guard
Kenny Brown. Brown hit seven
of eight long-range bombs for
14 points.
The Aggies got out of the
blocks fast, taking a 13-2 lead
over the Frogs on a short lay-in
by Reggie Roberts and baskets
by Roy Jones and Jimmie Gil
bert. But after TCU head coach
Jim Killingsworth called a time
out, the Horned Frogs returned
to the floor and promptly de
voured the Aggies.
TCU led by Five after the First
half and continued their scoring
spree throughout the rest of the
game as they scored the First
four point s of the second stanza.
Darrell Browder came alive in
the final 20 minutes to chip in 10
points for TCU and Brian
Christensen added eight.
After the game, Killing
sworth credited the Aggies with
being a good basketball team,
but said the early Aggie lead
might have hurt Texas A&M.
Killingsworth said the Aggies
lost their concentration after the
quick start and subsequently
gave the Frogs the opportunity
to take over the tempo of the
game.
With the loss, the Aggies’ re
cord falls to 9-10 on the year and
3-3 in Southwest Conference
play. The Aggies travel to Au
stin Saturday to take on Texas at
the Frank G. Erwin Special
Events Center. After Texas, the
Aggies will Finish out the First
hall of their SWC schedule at
home against Texas Tech on
Monday. TCU, meanwhile, will
be in Dallas Saturday to play
SMU.
