Aggies concentrate

'M.
(continued from page 7)
members (male and female), fans,
press members and critics in atten
dance at Kyle Field had discovered
college football bettors weren’t the
only interested parties with some
thing to lose.
“I don’t think we were worried at
halftime,” said Stump, who com
pleted 7 of 17 passes for 86 yards
againsl a free-wheeling NLU de
fense. “A lot of times we were down
inside the 30-(yard line) and nothing
happened. We just knew we had to
get it into the endzone. I thought we
could do that in the second half.”
But questions remained of
whether the Aggie defense could
contain Indian quarterback Walter
“Bubby” Blister, who passed and
scrambled his way to 265 total yards
of offense in the game, and keep
their hands off NLU punier Kevin
Duhe, who spent more time on his
back than Gerry Cooney in a heavy
weight bout.
“Their quarterback (Brister) is ex
cellent,” Sherrill said. “He gives
them a chance to win some games
and win their conference.”
“Bubby Brister did a good job,”
agreed NLU Head Coach Pat Col
lins. “He was able to get out of the
rush with his agility.”
“Brister is a good quarterback,”
A&M cornerback Jimmie Hawkins
concluded. “He’ll go far.”
Especially if he receives 15 yard
head-starts and automatic first
downs on stalled offensive drives.
Both NLU touchdowns followed
roughing-the-kicker penalties on
A&M that gave the Indians first-
down-and-second-chance to go.
“I think their kicker did a pretty
good acting job,” said A&M’s Lance
Haverda, the guilty party on the sec
ond infraction.
A&M wide receiver Shea Walker
said, “If we eliminate the penalties,
we’ll be able to improve our perfor
mance.”
Offensive lineman Doug Willia-
mas agreed, “It’s the same old thing.
Once we iron everything out, we’ll

be able to march 80 yards on any
body.”
While Williams’ prediction re
mains to be proven, the Aggies
showed they could certainly march
the ball on Northeast Louisiana —
and in the fourth quarter to boot.
With the possible outcome of the
game hanging in the balance, no
less.
A&M, leading 24-17 and driving
for the game-clinching score,
churned out big yardage on the
ground, while running big chunks of
time off the clock.
“I never believed they could
march the length of the field,”
NLU’s Collins said. “I think that’s
when their depth really hurt us — in
the second half.
“There is a gigantic difference in
depth when you have 25 more schol
arships (the difference between Divi
sion 1 and Division 1-AA) and I
think that was one of the major fac
tors in the game.”
The revitalization of the A&M
rushing game certainly ranks up
there somewhere.
The Aggie offensive front cleared
moving van-sized holes for running
backs Anthony Toney (106 yards on
22 carries), Roger Vick (76 on 16),
Keith Woodside (97 on 12) and a
supporting cast of thousands.
They picked up the blitz fairly
well in most passing situations and
only allowed one sack of an A&M
quarterback (Stump).
And they played like an offensive
line that outweighed their oppo
nents by 40 pounds per man.
By the end of the game, the Ag-
ies had rolled up 539 yards of of
fense, 31 first downs and 313 rush
ing yards, all of which are the
highest totals since the ’82 Rice
game.
“Our offense was able to do a lot
of things tonight,” Sherrill said. “I
am very pleased with the way we are
working toward having a very good
offense, one which can run and
throw the ball equally well.”
And score points. And win games
in the clutch. And do it all with the
possibility of a potential scandal
hanging over their heads.

Texas A&M’s Helen Christiaanse
placed second in singles play, while
third-seeded Kim Labuscnagne and
the doubles team of Cathy Nutt and
Julie Vaughan earned consolation
victories in the four-team intercolle
giate women’s tennis tournament at
A&M’s Omar Smith Tennis Center
Sunday.
Christiaanse, A&M’s No. 5 player
last year, entered the finals after up
setting top seed Teresa Dobson of
TCU Saturday. But she lost the fi-
jials match to TCU’s No. 2 player,
Rene Simpson, in straight sets, 6-2,
6-1.
Simpson gained entry to the finals
after upsetting A&M’s Vanne Akagi,
the No. 2 seed in the tournament.
After the loss, Christiaanse com
mented on Simpson.
“I’ve seen her play in Canada;
she’s a very hard hitter,”
Christiaanse said. “She played a
great match. I felt I had a really
great tournament, but it just wasn’t
my match.”
In the singles consolation match,
Labuschagne defeated Oklahoma’s
Anne Gibbons 6-2, 6-2.
In doubles action, Nutt and Vaug
han rebounded from an early loss to
take a pair of matches to earn conso
lation honors.
A&M first-year women’s tennis
coach Bobby Kleinecke said he felt
his team did better than he thought
they might for their first tourna
ment of the ’85 season.
“It gave me a chance to see them
play, other than in practice,” Klei
necke said. “It showed us what we
need to work on.”
Kleinecke also said he was im
pressed with the play by the doubles
teams, especially since they are chan
ging to a more aggressive playing
style.
“Your import
isn’t fixed until
I say it’s fixed.
