Bob scored on a touch down plunge against North Texas State and fumbled on a similar at tempt against Texas Tech. But this time, the “Icetray” — as one sports writer tagged him — was tackled for a three-yard loss and the Aggies turned over the ball on downs. Punt protection was nearly non existent for A&M. Aggie punter Craig Stump was under heavy pres sure on his first attempt and only booted a 14-yarder. In the second quarter. UH right cornerback Johnny Jackson broke through the line and deflected Stump’s kick enough so that the ball only traveled 1H yards. The lack of punt protection even spoiled the Aggies’ chances of a snutout. With just over four minutes left in the game and a 19-0 A&M Ipad, Cougar Mat Otis blocked a J'odd Schantz punt and Jackson re covered the ball at the A&M 12- yard-line. Houston scored oh a Ger- ild Landry pass to Jet Brown three j>lays later. I The A&M defense deserved to get Ihe shutout. It held Houston to only wne yard of total offense in the first half and 109 for the game. Hous ton’s six first downs was its all-time Southwest Conference low. ' “That’s the way we should be play ing," A&M inside linebacker Larry kelm said. “It’s good for us to play like this, because Baylor runs a few Options too. We’ll be flying around against Baylor, just like we did against Houston.” ; UH starting quarterback Mark pavis found the Aggie defense with him in the backfield almost as often as his running backs. A&M had six £acks for 31 yards in losses. And when Davis had to throw the ball, he found A&M cornerback James Flowers waiting there. Early in the fourth quarter, Flow ers picked off his first pass at the Houston 25 and scampered down the sideline for A&M’s only touch down wl tin game 1 got a nice break on the bail and just saw nothing but end zone,” Flowers said. On the next Houston series, Flow ers picked off another Davis toss and took that one back 29 yards before being stopped at the U FI 1 1. “I was looking forward to (scoring again)," Flowers said. With this game as a tuneup for Saturday’s showdown with Baylor, it looks like the A&M defense is well- I yep <tL We Honor Competitors' h^'”*** *•>>*<**■ * COPY CENTER! 707 Texas • 693-COPY| . 2679] 2305 Cavltt • B23-C0PY [ Coupons!* Ti * 95/GY DAVID R.

Those have to be corrected. “Give Houston credit, they have a good defense. They’re real aggres sive. But we should have gotten into the end zone.” Aggie Notes . . . Quarterback Ke vin Murray’s 18-of-29 performance for 188 yards moved him up on the A&M and SWC all-time record list. Murray now has 408 career comple tions for first place on the Aggie list, passing Edd Hargett’s 400 (1966- 68). Murray is fifth in completions on the SWC list, behind SMU’s Mike Ford’s 475. Moving up on the A&M career re ception list are Walker and tight end Rod Bernstine. Walker’s five catches for 85 yards Saturday gives him 77 receptions for fifth on the list. Bob Long (1966-68) has 79 for fourth. Bernstine grabbed three tosses in the game, which moved him into ninth on the list with 68 catches. A&M f ullback Roger Vick rushed for 104 yards, the same total as last week against Texas Tech. Ag volleyball to host Bears The Texas A&M volleyball team, ranked 20th in the nation in the NCAA poll, host the Baylor Bears tonight at 7:30 p.m. in G. Rollie White Coliseum.

A&M softbaHers finish fall at 18-1 By Homer Jacobs Assistant Sports Editor Texas A&M dropped its last game of the fall season Friday in the eight- team Oklahoma State Invitational Softball Tournament in Stillwater, Okla., to give the Aggies an 18-1 re cord overall. A&M lost to Nebraska 3-0 to fin ish second in the Aggies’ four-team pool. After pool play, a single elimi nation tournament w'as scheduled for Saturday, but rain cancelled the remainder of the tournament. A&M doubles squad in regional final The Texas A&M No. 1 doubles team of Marcel Vos and Dean Gold- fine lost to Southern Methodist’s Ritchie Reneberg and Den Bishop in Sunday’s finals at the Intercollegiate Tennis Coaches Association Region X Tournament at* the TCU Tennis Center. The top-seeded team of Reneberg and Bishop defeated the fifth- seeded duo ny a 6-3, 6-4 score. A&M Men’s Tennis Coach David Kent said he was excited with the team’s play. “Vos and Goldfine just played outstanding tennis,” Kent said. “Up to that finals match, they hadn’t lost a set. Reneberg and Bishop were just the class of the field." The victory automatically puts Reneberg and Bishop into the ITCA Indoor Championships, while Vos and Goldfine could be accepted as an at-large bid. Reneberg and Bishop defeated A&M’s No. 3 doubles team of Steve Kennedy and Chris Stanich 6-3, 6-4 in the semifinals. Stanich and Ken neth beat third-seeded Robert Zrig and Rick Robert of Southwest Texas State 7-6, 6-3 in the quarterfinals. In singles for the Aggies, Dean Johnson advanced the farthest in the tournament. Johnson won three matches before falling to TCU’s . Neal Broad 3-6, 6-4, 4-6 on in the semifinals. The Aggies posted impressive 4-0 v ictories earlier over Oklahoma City University and Southwest Missouri State. Shawn Andaya, 8-0, pitched a one-hitter against Oklahoma City and a two-hitter against Southwest Missouri State. A&M Coach Bob Brock said the Aggies were not their enthusiastic selves. "We were a little flat,” Brock said. "I think it was from the eight-hour trip.” Although Brock said he felt the Nebraska game was the team’s worst outing of the year, he said good things did stem from the Aggies’ loss. “(Julie) Carpenter pitched a heck of a game,” Brock said. “And Tm real happy with the young fresh men.” Carpenter gave up four hits to Nebraska in the losing ef fort. The big hitters for the Aggies were senior second baseman Judy Trussell who went 2-for-4 in both A&M wins and junior shortstop Liz Mizera who had a solo home run against Oklahoma City. Mizera also was the only Aggie w ho could muster a hit off Nebras ka’s All-America pitcher, Lori Sip- pel. Brock said he w'as pleased with his squad’s overall performance this fall and its ability to adapt to a new pitching distance (43 feet instead of 40). “Nobody w'as down about the loss," he said. The Aggies won’t have to get “up” for a game until the spring season starts next semester.
