No standing if
you're a grad
Gig ’em Aggies, right? Wrong! *
Not if you happen to be sitting in
the A&M graduate student sec
tion where everyone sits down
and acts boring.
I’m a graduate student from
Chicago, so all of this Aggie stuff
is new to me, but I love it. I think
its great and I really get into it.
So there I am at the Arkansas
State game standing up trying to
be a “Good Ag,” and someone be
hind me yells, “Sit Down!” What
should I do? Do I violate the ev-
erso awesome Aggie tradition
and sit during a football game?
Well, I don’t know.
I was informed that I was sit
ting in the grad student section.
Well who’s idea was it to put the
grad students in a sitting section?
That’s no fun.
Just because I’m a grad stu
dent doesn’t mean I wear bifocal
glasses, striped shirts, plaid pants
and inhabit some dungeon-like
laboratory.
Hey, I’m here for a good time,
noi d long time.
I love football games. When I
go to a football game I want to
yell and jump all over when the
Aggies score or make an awe
some play, but when you’re in the
sitting section standing is a no-no.
They even scream at you if you
stand to do a yell. I thought
“Rock the Good Ag” was going to
strike that loudmouth with light-

ening. Now I don’t know all of
the words to all of the yells yet,
but I’m trying. So how do I get to
be a Good Ag when some “two-
percenter” is flapping his jaw
non-stop at me?
Aside from being stereotyped
as a boring book freak and placed
in a section with a bunch of los
ers, the game was still a riot. The
overcast skies and cooler temper
atures were identical to many of
the football games I’ve seen in
Chicago. I felt like I was at home
in Wrigley Field watching the
Cubs, and, of course the Ags
won.
I’m already looking forward to
this week’s game against Texas
Tech. Hopefully I won’t have to
sit in the graduate section again.
I’m going to make sure I don’t
get my tickets there.
So, in the meantime, I suppose
I should get back to practicing
my Aggie yells and start learning
the words to the Spirit of Aggie-
land.
Afterall, I just want to be a
“Good Ag.”

Ags leave Baylor bare

(10) awaits the return in the third game of
the game.
By KEVIN INDA
Sports Writer
The Texas A&:M women’s volley
ball team swept the Baylor Bears 15-
2, 15-3, 15-10 to claim their first con
ference win of the season Monday
night before an enthusiastic crowd
in G. Rollie White Coliseum.
The Aggies came ready to play
and quickly took a two-game lead
over the Bears. A good defense and
an explosive offense led by Sherri
Brinkman and Chemine Doty, with
11 and 12 kills respectively, took its
toll on the shorter Baylor team.
It looked like the Aggies were
going to claim another quick win in
the third game, but the Bears capi
talized on some Ag mistakes to come
from a 7-2 deficit to tie the game at
10-10.
After a timeout and a few substi
tutions by A&:M Head Coach Terry
Condon, the lady spikers came out
and finished off the Bears 15-10.
“Baylor has a young program, less
than three years old, and they still
have a lot to learn,” Condon said.
“We were trying to work on some
things to get ready for Houston on
Wednesday.”
“We’re having a little problem
with the connection between the
center and the middle hitters,” Con
don said. “Were not really connect
ing very well in the middle, but to
night was better than this past
weekend at (the) LSU (tourna
ment).”
“We’re going to work on that be
fore the Houston game because the
strongest part of our offense is our
middle attack,” she said.
“The rest of the conference is no
way this easy,’* she said. “If we have
it this easy I’ll be surprised.”
“Houston’s real big and tall, but
they are slow,” Condon said. “We’ll
have to serve and pass well, and use
a lot of shots on them. We play them
at Houston and they tend to fire up
when they play at home. If we let
them get that way we could have
problems with them.”
Even though Baylor rallied in the
third game, Condon was pleased
with her team’s overall performance.
The Aggies record moves to 18-2
and 1-0 in conference play, while the
Bears drop to 4-11.
The Aggies will face Houston
Wednesday night at 7:30 p.m. in
Hofeinz Pavilion.
