tion: Forward Claude Riley,
who recently concluded his
Aggie playing career when
Texas A&M lost to TCU in the
Southwest Conference tourna
ment, hasn’t hung up his high-
tops just yet. Between today and
Saturday, Riley will be in Port
smouth, Va., for the Port
smouth Invitational Basketball
Tournament. Each year, tour
ney officials invite the top 64
senior basketball players in the
nation to compete in the three-
day event, which is heavily
attended by professional scouts.
Riley finished his career here as
the fourth leading scorer in
Texas A&M history at 1,383
points, and the second leading
rebounder at 870. Aggie coach
Shelby Metcalf said: “This is a
great honor for Claude. He is
very deserving. I think he has
the size and the shooting ability
to make a fine professional ball
player.” In other Aggie basket
ball notes, freshman center Jim
mie Gilbert has been named to
Basketball Weekly’s honorable
mention freshman all-America
team. Gilbert wound up the
1982-83 season with 63 blocked
shots, five away from the season
record set by former Texas
A&M center Rudy Woods in
1979. Gilbert’s 36 blocks during
the SWC season just missed
tying Woods’ Aggie record of 37
in 1979.

HOUSTON — Though the
upset that cost Houston its first

the minds of many Cougar fans,

“This is only a temporary set
back and I guarantee we’ll be
back next year," Lewis told some
3,000 cheering fans who wel
comed the Cougars back Tues
day from the NCAA Tourna
ment in Albuquerque, N.M.
“With support like this, there’s
no way we can fail. We’ll be back
next year and win it all.”
