For Texas A&M Head Coach
Lynn Hickey, tonight’s game against
SMU at Moody Coliseum will the
biggest of her short career at A&M.
Hickey has certainly coached in
bigger games. Her Kansas State
team was ranked in the Top 10 last
season. And she will certainly coach
in bigger games at A&M before she’s
through.
However, those NCAA
championship games are down the
road. For this year’s six Aggie se
niors, SMU may be the last big game
of their career.
Why their last big game? Because
if the Aggies lose, they will probably
not advance to the Southwest Con
ference tournament.
The top six teams in the SWC ad
vance to the tournament. A&M is
currently seventh and a win over
SMU puts them in sixth — simple as
that.
“It is a very big game,” Hickey
said. “SMU lost to Baylor Monday
night, so if we beat SMU we will have
a chance to move up to sixth place.
We will have to count on some big
upsets if we don’t.”
Hickey said beating SMU won’t be
an easy task. The Aggies lost to SMU
earlier this year.
“They’re a scrappy team,” Hickey
said. “They have a good inside
game. The biggest difficulty we face
is the way they change defenses.
“It makes it difficult for us be
cause we have a different offense for
every defense. We may have to com
promise and just run one offense.”
Hickey said the Mustangs and Ag
gies are evenly matched.
“The team that makes the fewest
number of mistakes will win the
game,” Hickey said. “We have a
good chance to win, but we have to
have a good game as a team.”
The Aggies will look inside more
than they did in their first loss to
SMU.
“Michell (Tatum) wasn’t in the
earlier game,” Hickey said. “That
should give us a bigger threat this
time. They don’t have as good an
outside game, so I look for Jenni
(Edgar) and Lisa (Langston) to have
a big game. We hope they can get
A&M’s Beth Young (13) looks to pass off the ball, then runs
into Miami’s Deborah Marshall (left) last Saturday night
open better than they have been.”
Center Ann Trinka who has been
an inside force for the Ags of late,
will get the starting nod against the
Mustangs.
j “She’s come in and done well,"
Hickey said. “She’s generally not a
scoring threat, but she is going to
have games when she scores in dou
ble figures.
“We like to have her on the floor
because she’s a great leader. She
really talks when she’s out on the
court.”
However, Hickey said if the\te
tangs' press begins to hurt the
she will not hesitate to bring iii
smaller lineup.
“If their press becomes a big&(■
tor, we may nave to go with a smalt
lineup,” Hickey said. “We will leak
situation dictate what we do. ft
have been playing no morethansP'
enpeople |>er game, so we haveie.
consistent there.”
The biggest game of Hickey'sliu
year and several Aggie’s lastyearte
arrived.
Sutton isn’t
planning
pro career
Associated Press
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Eddie
Sutton says he is staying at the Uni
versity of Arkansas as basketball
coach and that a statement he made
about frustrations with college re
cruiting was an off-the-cuff remark.
“I’m not going anywhere,” Sutton
said in response to a Dallas-datelined
story. In that article, he said, “It’s
frustrating. I know people are win
ning because they’re doing things il
legally.”
At a news conference Tuesday, he
said, “I am not going to the pros. My
comment in talking to a writer in
Dallas was, ‘Sometimes a few of us
get frustrated having to compete
against those who are cheating and
maybe that’s what will drive me to
the pros.’
“I have not talked to anybody in
pro basketball. I’m not interested in
coaching in pro basketball.”
