Julie Smith, the regular leadoff batter, is still out with a bro ken leg. Smith and Renee Blaha may be healthy for this weekend’s Pony Invitational in Fullerton, Calif. Earlier last week the Lady Aggies placed fifth in the Houston Classic, going 6-1 in the tournament and avenging several earlier losses in the process. against Texas-Arlington 4-2 before losing to Bowling Green. Dropping into the consolation bracket, A&M beat Kansas 7-0 and Indiana 4-1. The Lady Aggies had dropped a double-header to UTA in Arlington March S by scores of 1-0 and 2-1, and they had lost 2-1 in 11 innings to Kansas March 14 in Katy. They split a twinbill with Indiana Tuesday in Lake Jackson, winning the first game 3-1 and losing the second 2-1. Perhaps the brightest part about the week’s action was the return of Erin Newkirk. The centerfielder, who has finally recovered f rom hack and ankle injuries, hit a double and two home runs for seven RBI against Colorado State. The lone blemish in the tourna ment came against Bowling Green in the second game of bracket play for A&M. The Lady Aggies lost 9-3, as Julie Carpenter was shelled for 14 hits and A&M had committed four errors in the field. Catherine Stedman reinjured her knee in the second game with UTA March 8. She could oe back as early as Tuesday, but Brock says she prob ably will be limited to pitching and playing designated hitter for the rest of the season. In pool play A&M beat Colorado State 8-3, Nicnolls State 3-1, and eventual tournament champion Iowa State 4-3. The Lady Aggies won their first bracket-round game Tuesday the Lady Aggies play host to Bowling Green, starting at 4 p.m. at Penberthy Intramural Com plex.
