four minutes without a point.
Houston capitalized with six
consecutive points with a Mi

own miss, a short turnaround
jumper by Olajuwon and a pair
of free throws by Winslow to
move into a comfortable 63-5
lead before Cline ended Wake’s
drought with a 22-foot tomb
from the left corner.
Houston missed the front
end of three 1-and-l situations
in the final 90 seconds to allow
the Deacons to climb back
within four on two occasions.
But Alvin Franklin’s three
free throws in the final 49 sec

Green scored 18 points and

16 games this season to a non-

Olajuwon, a 7-foot, second-

14 of 16 shots including five
dunks and also had 12 re

steals and two assists for one of
his best overall games of the
season.
Winslow also chipped in 10
points and Franklin nine as the

Rudd added 12 points and

Houston jumped out to a
quick 6-2 lead on an inside bas

by Gettys. But Cline’s four
points helped Wake Forest at 8-

When Winslow missed a
short 5-footer for Houston in
the Lane, Wake Forest went
into a spread offense to draw
the Cougars out of their 2-3 de
fense.
When Houston did come out
to chase the ball, the Deacons
found a soft spot in the key
where Rudd was free for the
16-foot jump shot. He scored
10 points over the next six min

with the Houston defense.
Wake held the ball whenever it
was in the lead or the game was
tied.
The Deacons got a slam dunk

four minutes left but Houston
Coach Guy Lewis then went to a

A succession of Wake Forest
turnovers enabled the Cougars
to move back in front for good,
34-31, by intermission. Olaju

help Houston offset the offen

whose only basket hf the half
came on a 15-foot jumper with

The last time the Texas A&M
baseball team started off the
Southwest Conference season
with a three game sweep of an
opponent was 1979. But this
weekend the 1983 Baseball
team started off the same way
— sweeping three games from
the TCLJ Horned Frogs.
“I hope this is a sign of things
to come,” said head coach Tom
Chandler.
On Saturday, the Aggies de
feated TCU in a doubleheader,
winning 5-4 and 6-5. Sunday’s
single game, replacing Friday’s
rained out game, was won by
the Aggies 10-1.
In Saturday’s first game, the
Aggies found themselves down
3-0 after the third inning. But
in the bottom of the fourth, Ke
vin Smith ripped a single down
the third base line, scoring
Tony Metoyer. Steve Johnigan
brought Smith home from third
with a hard hit ball to second
base. Buddy Haney’s RBI in the
fifth scored Rob Swain, tying
the score at 3.
TCU then mounted a scoring
threat in the sixth inning but
Beje Mahoe'vvas called upon to
replace starter Sherman Cor
bett and was able to get the Ag
gies out of the inning without a
run scoring.
But TCU scored a run in the
seventh to make the score 4-3.
It was up to the Aggies in the
bottom half of the game’s final
inning.
With the Aggies’ largest
crowd of their year on their feet
and raising cain, Swain took the
first pitch and doubled to right
field. The Aggie fans got even
rowdier after Haney hit a single
off the bag at third to put run
ners at the corners.
Metoyer then grounded to
third — TCU threw Haney out
at second, but couldn’t turn the
double play to get Metoyer. It
was here that Shawn Choruby
became the hero. Choruby
tripled to right center field to
score Swain. and Metoyer and
bring the Aggie dugout swarm
ing onto the field.
In Saturday’s 6-5 victory, Ag
gie starter pitcher Tom Arring
ton picked up his sixth straight
win.
In Sunday’s 10-1 trouncing
of the Horned Frogs, Starter
Kelly Keahey went eight com
plete innings to improve his
overall record to 4-0.
Aggie batters had a field day
with the TCU pitching staff, re
cording sixteen hits. Coach
Chandler was undoubtedly
pleased with the performance.
“We had our hitting clothes
on today,” Chandler laughed.
Texas A&M will take their
23-6 season record into another
three game series with Okla
homa City University this week.
The Aggies host the Chiefs in a
doubleheader Tuesday at 5:30
p.m. at Olsen Field.
Ag softball team
loses two of three
FULLERTON, Ca. —
Plagued by a long road trips,
stiff compelitiop and a rash of
injuries, the Texas A&M Wom
en’s softball team had an early
exit in the Cal State-Fullerton
Invitational tournament this
weekend.
The Aggies won their first
game 1-0 against Minnesota.
Freshman pitcher Shawn An-
daya held Minnesota to four
hits and had nine strike outs in
getting her 12th win of the sea
son. Catcher Gay McNutt drove
in the winning run.
The team lost to Cal Poly,
which went on to win the tour
nament, in the second game, 4-
0. Losing pitcher Yvette Lopez
gave up two hits and four walks
in six innings before being re
lieved by Andaya in the sixth.
The Aggies made five errors in
the game.
The team lost its second
game of the double-elimination
tournament to Utah, 2-1 in
eight innings. It was pitcher An-
daya’s first loss of the season.
She gave up 10 hits and struck
out five.
Assistant coach Sue Ldlly said
it was ‘just one of those games’
for Andaya.
“It was hound to catch up
with her some finite,” Lilly said.
Lilly said the same about the
play of the entire team.
“You can’t play perfect hall
every game,” Lilly said. “I think
we aired all our mistakes out
this weekend."
