’Horn spikers slug Ags
Record crowd witnesses five-gome struggle /
By CHAREAN WILLIAMS
Assistant Sports Editor
There have been some classic
heavyweight title matches.
Joe Frazier vs. Muhammad Ali.
Rocky Balboa vs. Apollo Creed.
Texas A&M vs. Texas.
Wednesday night at G. Rollie
White Coliseum, the Southwest Con
ference’s heavyweights slugged it
out on the volleyball court.
A record crowd of 3,500, which
was on its feet and biting its nails for
most of the match, saw No. 9 Texas
take its fourth straight SWC
Cahmpionship with a thrilling 10-
15, 11-15, 15-12, 15-13, 17-15 win
over the No. 19 Aggies.
“This was fun for the Aggie
crowd, except that they would have
liked to have won,” Fexas Coach
Mick Haley said. “This is what vol
leyball’s all about.”
The Longhorns (21-5, 9-0 in
SWC) came into the match with a
two game lead over the Aggies (25-7,
7-3) in the SWC standings with only
two left to play. Almost everyone
had already given the SWC trophy
to the ’Horns.
After all, the ’Horns had already
given the Aggies an ol’ fashioned
whipping in Austin less than a
month ago.
So while everyone was busy count
ing the Aggies out of the match, out
of the conference race and out of the
NCAAs, they were busy digging,
passing and setting balls in the court.
“Let’s not take anything away
from Texas A&M,” Haley said.
“They played a very good volleyball
match. It was a good job by their
players and a good job by their
coach.”
The First two games, the Aggies
controlled the Longhorns almost at
will.
A&M jumped all over Texas in
game one for an 8-3 lead. That was
quickly increased to 12-5 behind
outside hitter Stacey Gildner and
setter Chris Zogata.
And while the ’Horns were trying
