Lady Aggie Cheri Steensma spikes the ball for a point against
Texas Tech Friday. A&M won the match in three games.
Lady Aggies beat
Tech in 3 games
By Jeff Miller
Sports Writer
The Lady Aggies volleyball team
opened Southwest Conference play
Friday night with a three-game
sweep with 19-17, 19-17, 15-12 wins
over the Lady Red Raiders.
Texas Tech came out strong lead
ing 7-3 to start in the first game.
Lady Aggie Head Coach A1
Givens then called a time out to let
his players relax and regroup.
From there, behind the hills of se
nior Cheri Steensma, the Lady Ag
gies outscored Tech 8-2 and finally
tied the game at 14.
With A&M serving, Lady Aggie
sophomore Amy Cumings then
tipped the ball over the net to fool
the Tech defense and put the Lady
Ags ahead by one.
But Tech didn’t give up, as they
tied the score at 15-15, 16-1(5, and
17-17 until the Lady Aggies finished
the game with the 19-17 win.
The Red Raiders again surged to
a 3-0 lead in the second game, but
the Lady Ags came back with rallies
of their own behind the kills of Cum
ings and Vivian Viera to make the
score 6-4 Tech.
A&M eventually tied the score at
7-7, and on the next point Kelli Kel-
len slammed the ball through the
arms of the Red Raiders to put the
Lady Aggies in the lead 8-7.
Tech again came back, tying the
score at 11-11, 13-13, and 14-14 to
extend the second set to extra
games.
It appeared that Tech had the
momentum in their favor when they
went ahead 16-15, but again the
Lady Aggies came back for another
19-17 win after two long shots by the
Red Raiders.
Givens said, “We have the poten
tial to play and stay in rallies inside
and out, and our team is maturing
and not getting rattled if we get be
hind. They showed their composure
tonight.”
The third game began with Tech
again jumping out in front with a 2-0
lead before the Lady Ags scored.
Behind the leadership of
Steensma and the serves of Sheri
Hermesmeyer, the Lady Aggies tied
the Red Raiders at 6 and 7.
“They all played well,” Givens
said. “They all had their different
points of glory, and it was definitely
a team effort.
“Sheri’s a freshman, and at one
time we even had two freshmen on
the court, and I was real pleased
with the way they worked together
tonight.”
The crowd at G. Rollie White Col
iseum came alive, as A&M never lost
the lead again, posting a 15-11 win
and improving their season record
at 8-5 and 1-0 in the SWC.
“I think the crowd definitely
made a big difference, and the fact
that we were so vocal and support
ive, made a tremendous difference.
“That’s what playing at home
should do. The 12th Man should
come into effect, and that made a
difference.
“This will give us some momen
tum. The fact that we came from be
hind in the first two games is very
pivotal and will show us that we
know that we can do it.”

"A TRIUMPH.
Ms. Morrison’s versatility and technical
and emotional range appear to know no
bounds. If there were any doubts about
her stature as a pre-eminent American
novelist, of her own or any other genera
tion, BELOVED will put them to rest.”

Aggies
(Continued from page 9)
ter with their first points coming on
Wilson’s 2-yard run with just 31 sec
onds left in the opening quarter.
The drive was set up by an Alex
Morris fumble recovery at Tech’s 41
yard line. Red Raider quarterback
Billy Joe Tolliver tossed a 24-yard
completion to Anthony McDowell
and A&M’s William Thomas forced
the fumble.
Tolliver had one touchdown pass
late in the third quarter to give him a
career high of eight for the season.
In the second quarter the Aggie
defense put the pressure on Tech
with linebackers John Roper and
Aaron Wallace each getting a sack
and working together for another.
Running back Larry Horton,
playing off of left end on A&M’s
punt defense, charged in and
blocked a Tech punt and Morris re
covered it for the Aggies third TD of
the half.
Richardson took the snap on the
“swinging gate” and took it in for
two points to give A&M a 22-0 lead.
“We practised all week because
Tech’s center has a little hitch right
before he hikes the ball,” Horton
said. “I took off when he hitched
and was fortunate enough to get to
the ball.”
Horton had also scored on a 2-
yard run up the middle earlier in the
quarter that gave the Aggies a 14-0
advantage.
Scott Slater missed a 33-yard field
goal attempt that turned the ball
back over to Tech before the
blocked punt.
The Red Raiders began a drive at
their own 36-yard line with just over
two minutes left in the half and ran
without a huddle.
They could only make it to the
Aggie 19 where Scott Segrist hit the
left goal post on a 36-yard field goal
attempt, leaving Tech scoreless.
A&M wasted no time getting back
on the scoreboard in the second half.
After stopping Tech’s first posses
sion, Lewis went to work, gaining 48
yards on four consecutive runs.
Wilson took over for the final play
of the drive as he carried two de
fenders into the end zone on a 9-
yard run up the middle.
After Leon Cole halted Tolliver’s
attack with an 11-yard sack, the Ag
gies got the ball back on the Tech 40.
Osgood hobbled the snap for the
third time of the game, and Richard
son came in and worked the offense
to the 2-yard line before swinging
around the right end for the score.
The Red Raiders finally put a
drive together with Tolliver connect
ing with Tyrone Thurman on two
long completions.
The drive ended with a 27-yard
screen to Thurman as he avoided
and outran several Aggie defenders
down the right sideline to make the
score 36-7.
Thurman had been carried off at
halftime with a foot injury but came
back for four catches and 64 yards in
the second half.
The fourth quarter started with
the continuation of an Aggie third-
quarter drive. It was all Richardson
and Lewis as they ate up 65 yards in
just 1:46 to make it 43-7.
Richardson was back in on the
next A&M possession and took the
ball in on a 10-yard run off the right
tackle to finish A&M’s scoring.
The defense continued to shut
down Tech with the exception of a
66-yard drive led by quarterback Ja
mie Gill. The drive was highlighted
by a 32-yard reception by McDowell.
