The University of North Texas Lady
Eagles took advantage of a slow start by
the Lady Aggie basketball team to defeat
them 60-53 in Denton.
A&M trailed by as much as 15 points
before rallying to within four with less
than two minutes in the game.
A&M Head Coach Lynn Hickey said,
“We lost. They didn’t win. We made
their year.”
The Lady Aggies fall to 2-1 and head
off to Minnesota for the Dial Classic and
a game against Kansas State.
A&M slipped to 16-10 with 8:56 to go
in the first half, and it spelled doom for
the rest of the night.
Hickey said the team was not mentally
prepared for the game and needed to
shake off the problem.
“It takes 20 minutes to get ready to
play the game, and we can’t afford that,”
she said. “We’ve got to play the first 30
minutes of the game like we play the last
10 minutes.”
The Lady Aggies fell behind 33-23 at
the half and inserted a young bench —
three freshmen, a junior-college transfer
and a sophomore — to open the final pe
riod.
They picked up the tempo for the Lady
Aggies, who were then able to put points
on the board and close the gap.
The Lady Aggies outrebounded the
Lady Eagles 57-48 but couldn’t halt
North Texas.
A&M senior Donna Roper scored 13
points, while Diane Decree and LaTanya
Irving came off the bench to chip in 10
and eight points respectively.
Three North Texas players scored in
double figures.
Nelda Loy, Ramona Black and Nicole
Jackson had 17, 14 and 13 points for the
Lady Eagles.
Hickey said she was very proud of her
younger players for the spirit they in
fused in the team to rally back.
“We have to give them a lot of credit,”
she said. “They came off the bench and
led a fire force.”

Hogs
(Continued from page 9)
Arkansas team in a row Hatfield has
led to a bowl game.
Playing UCLA for the cotton
could be as tough a match as the
Orange Bowl two years ago when
Oklahoma demolished the
Razorbacks 42-8. But after
Arkansas’ performance against
Miami last week, this year’s Cotton
Bowl is looking to me like it might be
a better game than most suspect.
The Bruins are surely expecting to
blow out the Hogs but there’s no
question in my mind the Razorbacks
could beat the Bruins.
The thing is, with Arkansas, it’s
just hard to tell what will happen. It’s
easy to credit their 10-1 record to an
easy schedule. But that seems unjust
to me now.
Some wins are bigger than others,
but at the end of the season, a win is
a win. And Arkansas has won —
something the rest of the SWC has
had a difficult time doing this
season.
When I try to think of the talented
spots for the Razorbacks, very little
comes to mind. Of course Kendall
Trainor has one of the most talented
feet in the country, but kickers don’t
make a team. They have decent-to-
good quarterbacks and running
backs, a good defense — but nothing
stands out.
When trying to get a vision of who
Arkansas really is, it’s easy for me to
see only a big blob of cardinal red.
But they can’t be ignored anymore
by the Texas portion of the SWC.
The Hogs are, for now, keeping
the conference on the national map.
And I have decided to get off of the
Texas sports bandwagon and say
that Arkansas deserves to be in the
Cotton Bowl, whether the Aggies are
on probation or not.
