(continued from page 11)
desperately to comeback, Texas set
ter Jackie Campbell was defeating
the purpose. She hit one ball out and
another into the waiting hands of
A&M middle blocker Sherri Brink-
man for the final two points.
In the second game, it was more
of the same. It was load, ready, aim,
fire, reload for the Ags as one ball
after another hit on Texas’ side of
the court.
Key kills by A&M outside hitter
Cheri Steensma and Brinkman put
the Ags up 11-7. But before the Ags
could say “15,” a Diane Watson tap
had the game tied at 11-11.
On the next play, Gildner hit one
deep into the left corner of the
court. When the linesman signaled it
was in, Haley jumped off the bench
and began arguing.
Haley was given a red card for un
sportsmanlike conduct, costing his
team a point. That seemed to be the
deciding play in game two as UT
never scored again.
So in the best three-of-five match,
A&M seemed to be in good shape
with a 2-0 lead. They had emotion
ally, physically and mentally out
played the ’Horns.
“It was a game of momentum,”
Haley said. “The Aggies did a good
job of controlling the momentum in
the first two games.”
It seemed only appropriate that
seniors Brinkman and Lesha Beak-
ley, the only two players on the team
who had ever beaten the ’Horns,
would end their career in G. Rollie
with a win over Texas.
The roses they were given before
the match began to smell sweeter by
the moment.
But somewhere along the way,
they began to droop and wilt.
Texas slowly ana methodically be
gan to climb back into the match. In
the third game, they jumped to a 2-0
lead, the first time in the match that
Texas had led by more than a point.
And before the Ags could re
cover, the ’Horns had a 12-4 lead.
“They just let up,” A&M Coach
Terry Condon said. “I was sitting
there thinking how tired they
looked. It’s the first time I’ve ever
had a team that tired in the third
game.”
The Ags also became apprehen
sive at the net. Instead of playing to
win, they began to play not to lose.
Instead of spiking balls, they began
dinking balls.
“We started to play it safe,” Con
don said. “You can’t do that. You’ve
got to get up there and pound
away.”
In the fourth game, the Aggies
got their motor started too Tate
again. The had to play catch-up af
ter allowing Texas a 12-6 head start.
Beakley was instramental in the Ags’
comeback, charging them back into
the game at 13-14.
Tne fifth and deciding game was
nip and tug all the way. With
Gildner spiking and Beakley digging
left and right, A&M went up 10-8.
The next four points went to UT for
a 12-10 ’Horn lead. The Ags scored
the next two to tie it at 12.
But crucial mistakes nailed the
Ags’ casket shut.
Gildner was called for being in the
net, giving Texas a 15-14 lead. After
surviving four match points, the Ags
got the serve back trailing 16-15. Zo-
gata served the ball into the net for
the Ags’ 12th serving error of the
night.
“(We) played pretty well,” Con
don said. “We made a lot of dumb
mistakes. With the score 14 -14 or 14-
13, you can’t afford the errors, and
that’s exactly what we did.”
And that’s what she told her play
ers after the game.
“I told them to remember the mis
takes,” she said, “like Chris serving
out and Gildner netting to tie the
score. Never forget it, so we’ll never
make those errors again.”
Outside hitters Steensma and
Gildner, who Condon criticized for
their play against Baylor Monday,
combined for a .268 hitting percent
age, 36 kills and 40 digs.
“Gildner played well,” Condon
said. “And for a freshman playing in
her first competitive and important
match, Cheri Steensma played very
well.”
Senior Beakley saved her best for
last. She had a .271 setting percent
age and 28 digs.
“Lesha played probably the best
match I’ve ever seen her play,” Con
don said. “Leadership wise and all-
around, she was outstanding.”
Beakley and Brinkman will more
than likely have a chance to play at
least one more match in an Aggie
uniform.
With their play against Texas,
A&M has probably guaranteed its
self of one of the 12 at-large bids to
the NCAA Championship Tourna
ment.
“I talked to the regional commit
tee people today,” Condon said.
“They said it looks good. But if we
had beat them, we wouldn’t have
had to play such a high seed.”
In fact, Haley thinks the SWC
teams will meet again in postseason
play.
“They’re one of the two best
teams we’ve seen,” Haley said. “I
don’t think there’s any question in
my mind that they will receive an
NCAA bid and I think we’re going
to see them a third time this year.”
After coming so close Wednesday
night, the Aggies were left hoping
for one more shot at the ’Horns.
“I certainly hope (we get to play
them again),” Beakley said. “I think
we’re a much better team. We just
made mistakes at the wrong times”’
And those mistakes left the frus
trated Aggie fans not only anxiously
awaiting word from the NCAA se
lection committee, hut had them
slugging it out with the Longhorn
mascot and cheerleaders at match’s
end.
