We sort of got taken because of a bad call by an official last year. I think it was sort of a biased whis tle, but I hope we can beat them this year.” Texas A&M defeated Yale 18-6 in the quarterfinals before losing to Connecticut in the semis last spring. Cal-Davis then beat Connecticut in the cham pionship round. Other teams competing in this year’s event will be Arizona, Colorado State, North Carolina, Texas Tech, Yale, Virginia, Harvard and Cornell. The Aggies will be without the services of Carlos Garcia and Roe Babers, starters who com peted with the team last year and during the fall.

The Ice-Ags performed several record-breaking feats in completing a two-game sweep of the Austin Saints. The Aggies trounced the Saints twice, 11-5 and 13-5, on their way to recording their fourth victory in a row. The Texas A&M attack was powered by five hat tricks (three goals by one individual in a game). Gordie Anderson and John Nagy both recorded hat tricks in each of the Aggies two ? ;ames. The fifth three-goal per- ormance was turned in by Tom Dobrez. Anderson, the team’s leading scorer, started Saturday night’s scoring by bulleting a shot past the Saints’ goaltender. Then the Nagy show began. Nagy scored the next four Aggie goals on his way to setting a team record with five goals in one game. Nagy’s goals were followed by tallies from Myles Coleman and John Durian. This scoring spree allowed the Ice-Ags to skate to a 7-2 lead after two periods of play. Anderson scored the first and last goals of a wild seven- goal third period. The other two goals for Texas A&M were net ted by Barry Wyble and Nagy. The Saints, a team made up of University of Texas students and players from the Austin men’s hockey league, managed to squeeze three goals pa*>t Aggie goaltender Blair Oliver in the final stanza. Oliver turned back 38 Saint’s shots en route to his third victory in five starts. The second match-up be tween the two teams was a goalies’ nightmare. The Ice-Ags fired off a team record 63 shots while the Saints shot 42. Aggie goalie Eddie Cassavoy was able to turn back 37 Saints’ shots while his teammates scored a team record 13 goals. The most significant record set by the team was the work of three Aggie forwards. Ander son, Nagy and Dobrez combined to score nine Texas A&M goals, and each of them scored once in each of the three periods. The contest was tied up at 3-3 as a result of the trio’s goals in the first period. Then in the second, Barry Wyble scored twice in less then a minute to put the Ice-Ags ahead to stay. Be fore the period was over, Ander son, Nagy and Dobrez had given Texas A&M an 8-3 lead. The third period scoring was started by Aggie defenseman Joe Anderson. Anderson’s powerplay goal was followed by his brother Gordie’s third goal, then Nagy’s third goal, then Dobrez’s third goal. The Ice-Ags scoring was finished off by play er-coach Todd Steinweg’s first goal. that with those two players, Texas A&M might have had a good shot at the national title. However, he said, the Aggies still plan to do well. “If the guys will listen and play their game, we can be in the finals and possibly bring home the trophy,” McCleary said. “Our alternates (Bogart and Ames) are coming along real well and they may surprise us up there. This is one of the weaker teams we’ve taken to nationals in a long time, but there aren’t so many powerhouses this year.” The team is sponsored by Dr. Stephen Seager, an associate professor of veterinary physiol ogy and pharmacology at Texas A&M. tfloorn Serving Luncheon Buffet Sunday through Friday 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Delicious Food Beautiful View 4.0pen to the Public ^ | “Quality First” THE LOW-DOWN ON A HIGH-PAYING CAREER WITH LUBY’S.
