Rollie White Col iseum. Kelli Kellen and Yvonne Van Brandt. Kellen had an attack ner- centage of .588 and Van Brandt added a setting percentage of .491. On Saturday morning, A&M de feated UTSA, 15-8, 15-5 and 15-13 in its only three game sweep of the tournament. “The last tournament, combined with the loss to Rice really tired us,” Givens said. “It showed that the team had confidence in the way they came back in the fourth games, though.” Saturday evening, SWTSU, which defeated A&M in three games ear lier in the season, came into the final match also undefeated after two The other schools in the four- team tourney were Oral Roberts, Texas-San Antonio and Southwest Texas State. “It is definitely long overdue,” A&M Coach A1 Givens said. “South west Texas is as good as anyone who was here at last weekend’s tourna ment. games. But this time the outcome was dif ferent. A&M took the first two games, 15- 12 and 15-7. In the third game, A&M had come back to tie the game at 11, but three straight service er rors gave the Bobcats their only game of the match, 11-15. A&M won the fourth game, 15-8, to hand the Bobcats second place in the tourna ment. UTSA finished third. “After placing third in the Texas A&M Invitational and losing a five- game match to Rice on Wednesday, I think the girls had a different atti tude going into this tournament. Now, maybe we can get down to business.” In each of A&M’s three matches, the Aggies’ only real trouble came in the third game. Twice, they lost the third game and in the other, they won by two points. “A&M deserved to win,” Bobcat Coach Karen Chisum said. “We knew that after we had beaten them earlier in the season, they would be gunning for us. Neither team served well. Both teams were sluggish, but back lin the difference was our back line. The Lady Aggies, 8-12 on the sea son, defeated ORU on Friday, 15-5, 15-12, 9-15 and 15-11, with the help of all-tournament team members Along with Kellen and Van Brandt, Lady Aggie Vivian Viera also was named to the all-tourna ment team as well as ORU’s Kristen Dorsey, UTSA’s Stacey Rose and SWTSU’s Christine Lange and Dar- bie Bruning, the tournament’s most valuable player. k J 1 WASH INC rifaii.

More than 300 picketers, includ ing about 20 striking Broncos, dem onstrated outside the stadium prior to kickoff. The strikers yelled insults at the replacement players as they arrived for the game, but except for a few heated arguments between strikers and fans, there were no inci dents. Four Broncos who crossed the picket line last week played in the game - compared with just one Oiler - but the Broncos were no match for Pease and Co. Pease, a late cut of the Minnesota Vikings, ran 1 yard to cap a 50-yard drive and give Houston its first score midway through the opening quar ter. goals by John Diettrich in the second quarter. The Oilers led 17-10 at the halt and, after a Diettrich field goal in the third period, portly lineoacker Eugene Seale picked off a pass from Ken Karcher and lumbered 73 yards for a score and a 27-10 lead. Pease hit tight end Mark Gehring on a 31-yard scoring play on the first play of the final quarter to put the Oilers up 34-10. goal by Mike Clendenen andKarcb rd TD pass to RickMassit.
