Ag Ladies lose
to SMU, 67-55
by Frank L. Christlieb
Battalion Staff
The Aggie women’s basketball team lost its filth game out of
the last six Wednesday night, dropping a 67-55 decision to the
SMU Mustangs in Dallas.
Texas A&M, which defeated SMU 77-60 in Cl. Rollie White
Coliseum earlier this month, sank to 10-14 overall and 1-6 in
Southwest Conference play with the defeat. The Aggie Ladies'
road record stands at 3-10.
The Mustangs raised their record to 13-12 and 4-4 in the
conference standings.
The Aggie Ladies fell behind 36- 19 at half time, shootingonly
25 percent f rom field and being outrebounded 25-13 in first
half. Texas A&:M shot 3 1 percent in the second half to wind up
the game at 29 percent and finished the game by winning the
rebound battle, 44-42.
Michell l atum, playing all 40 minutes, led the Aggie Ladies
with 18 points and 15 rebounds and Kelli Harned had 13 points
before fouling out late in the game.
Jenni Edgar, Texas A&rM's leading scorer for the season, had
committed three f ouls by the 10:49 mark of the first half, so she
sat out the remainder of the half. Edgar was whistled for
another foul with 13:30 left in the game, was taken out and
didn’t return until the last few minutes. She scored four points.
Coach Chen i Rapp said the Aggie Ladies couldn’t rebound
from their cold shooting in the first half .
“We improved in the second half, but we made too many
mental mistakes,” she said. “ The team may he getting down
because of losing too many games. I think the players may be
wondering ‘are we ever going to win?’ We may have been a little
overconfident after beating SMU at home.”
Texas A&M stayed with SMU during the first few minutes of
the game, as the score was tied 6-6. But the Mustangs broke
away for leads of 12-6, 26-10 and 36-19 at halftime.
The Aggie Ladies closed to within eight points at 46-38 with
8:30 left in the game, as Ann I rinka scored. But three straight
baskets by the Mustangs made it 52-38, and Texas A&M could
never get closer.
The Aggie Ladies play TCU Saturday in C. Rollie White at
12:30 p.m., while the men’s team plays at 3:10. The women’s
team plays No. 3-ranked Texas here at 4:45 p.m. Monday.

timing on his shots. Moore and
(Mike) Dunleavy did a great get
ting Mitch the ball where he
could shoot and he got down the
floor well so he could get his
shots.”
Kenny Carr ignited a short
Portland surge that cut San
Antonio’s margin to 93-82 early
in the fourth quarter, but
