Saturday night’s game in C. Rollie
While Cotoaeum between the Texas
AJcM Lady Aemrs and the Texas
Christian Lady Frogs had everything
a basketball fan could want: intense
play, lead changes, rallies, last-sec
ond desperation shots, overtime,
and a Laay Aggie victory to boot.
The Lady 6-12 overall
and 4-6 in the Southwest Confer
ence. overtame a terrible first half
and were behind by as many as thir
teen points in the second half before
rallying twice to tie the came and
send it into overtime, enabbng AJcM
to scratch out a hard-fought 62-79
victory.
“This is a really, really big win for
us,” AMcM Cooxh Lynn Hidtey said
“We really need the confidence now
We played very hard in the second
half with a bunch of young kids and
we came through.'*
The Lady Aggies started out alow,
and for a while it looked as if they
were going to play another game of
tumover-mistaVe-tumover and lose
for the eighth time in nine games
But a second half charae led by
sophomore forward Veronda
Roundtree enabled the Lady Aggies
to come back from a thirteen-point
deficit and close the gap to one at 55
54 and eventually tie it at 57.
Roundtree came off the bench to
score 10 quick points after having
scored two in the first half to bring
the Aggies back.
“It’s my role to come tn and score
and get some quick buckets,” Round
tree said We knew we were just
beating ourselves again because we
had turnovers galore, so we knew if
we cut down on the turnovers we
could come back."
