Davis, UT drill Lady Ags
Turnovers, poor shooting costly to A&M
Aggie baseball team hopeful
of return to NCAA playoffs
A&M opens season by hosting Pan American
By Stan Golaboff
SPORTS WRITER
AUSTIN — Texas A&M came to
Austin dreaming of an upset.
Instead, the Lady Aggies were
treated to a nightmare — Texas
style.
Turnovers, poor shooting and a
case of nerves did in the Lady Aggies
as the ninth-ranked Lady Long
horns of Texas stormed to an easy
86-61 victory Thrusday night at the
Frank Erwin Center in Austin.
A&M committed 19 turnovers
and shot only 36 percent from the
field in suffering its third loss in the
last four games.
Senior center Lisa Jordon led
A&M with 13 points with nine re
bounds. Senior guard Donna Roper
added 12 points.
Senior All-American Clarissa Da
vis scored 26 points and grabbed 16
rebounds in leadinp- Texas (16-4: 10-
0 in the SWC) to its 111th consec
utive Southwest Conference victory.
A&M (14-7;6-4) only led once, 2-
0, before Texas moved to a 20-14
lead in the game’s first twelve min
utes.
Texas then began its first decisive
scoring spurt with a 13-6 run that
gave the Lady Longhorns a 17-point
lead (37-20) with two minutes re-

maining in the opening half.
Lady Aggie turnovers led to easy
layups for Texas as forward Vicki
Hall (four points) and guard Lyssa
McBride (six points) led the run.
A&M was intimidated throughout
the competitive phase of the game
and missed layups and threw' errant
passes.
The first half ended with Texas
holding a commanding 39-22 lead.
Apparently, the Lady Aggies were
too intimidated and nervous to put
together any cohesion on offense.
Texas head coach Jody Conradt
was surprised by A&M’s lack of emo
tion.
“I was surprised A&M played with
less emotion that we expected,” Con
radt said. “They’re a scary ballclub
because they have a lot of talent and
depth. Changing they’re personnel
so much hurt them.”
A&M head coach Lynn Hickey
was hoping to shuffle players in and
out to keep them fresh for a possible
rally late in the game.
Texas extended the lead midway
through the final period with a 17-7
streak over a four minute span.
The Texas run ended with the
Lady Horns holding a 69-43 lead
with eight minutes to go.
“We never got into our offensive
game,” Hickey said. “We didn’t play
a good game. Texas did. They’re in
tensity was excellent.
“We played good defense at times,
hut we couldn’t score.”

ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITORS
There’s no doubt Texas A&M has
established itself as a college baseball
power.
Last year’s squad went 52-15 in
cluding a 17-4 mark in the South
west Conference and a trip to the
South Regional in Mississippi, where
they fell one game short of going on
to the College World Series.
Seasons like last year’s have been
standard since Coach Mark Johnson
took over the head job for the 1985
season.
Johnson has high hopes for this
year, too. But several question marks
are keeping him from making any
preseason predictions.
The recent string of cold and icy
days has allowed only one outside
practice for lohnson’s crew since
Feb. 2.
“As far as opening day, this is the
farthest behind we’ve ever been,” he
said. “We’re not ready to win a
championship today, but with the

number ol games we play (o9), we
should have a chance.”
Andy Duke, senior right fielder,
said the lack of outdoor practice
shouldn’t hurt that much.
“We’ve been working inside, so we
haven’t missed practice altogether,”
he said. “It is hard to regain certain
kinds of timing when you aren’t able
to go ‘all out’ on the field.”
Johnson said the caliber of com
petition is hard to judge right now,
but playing a Division I schedule
means there are always some big
games.
“The interesting thing about base
ball is that there is a constant turno
ver,” he said. “It’s very hard to say
who the big games are. We feel like
we play tough competition every
time we cross the line.”
A&M has experience in seven of
the nine field positions. John Bying-
ton (.314 last year) and Chuck Knob
lauch (.365) are expected to lead the
way at the plate.
Knoblauch, All-SWC shortstop
last season will continue at that posi
tion while Byington should take over
third base duties from former Aggie
star Scott Livingstone.

Several questions arise from football’s national signing day
The recruiting wars are over. Let peace
and harmony reign across the land.
Don’t bet on it.
Now that the national signing date has
passed, sports writers and recruiting
specialists across the country and the state
are assessing who won and who lost in the
football game played off the field. But
better than who won or lost are the
dicussions that will ensue over the best issue
ofall: WHO CHEATED?
Who cares who’s getting who? It’s really
more interesting to know who’s getting
what, i.e. cars, money and credit cards.
Well, let’s see.
The low-down is that you can expect the
NCAA to come calling in Waco sometime
soon. The not-so-mignty Baylor Bears
nailed down Robert Strait, the best running
back in Texas. The 6-1,217 lb., bullet train
from Cuero chose the Bears over the
University of Southern California and UT.
He said he wanted to stay in the state and

the smaller school on the Brazos appealed
to his small town background.
Yeah,yeah,yeah.
Bear this in mind Robert: The last time a
private school in Texas (Dr an out-of-state
school hit the mother lode, they got some
time in the cooler from the NCAA. I’m
referring to SMU landing Eric Dickerson,
Jeff Atkins, Russell Carter and a myriad of
paid pigskin carriers. Then they got the
Ted Bundy Special.
An out-of-state privateer that is now
doing penance for its sinful ways and
perpetuating the trend is Oklahoma State.
The once pathetic Cowboys lured the
Typhoid Mary of college football, Hart Lee
Dykes, to Stillwater because Dykes said it
was a “good passing school.” At the time the
Cowboys were running All-American
Ernest Anderson about 40 times a game.
About the only time the ball went in the air
was when Anderson would run the half
back option.
But after multiple investigations
surrounding the Dykes-Contra affair, the
Cowboys and at least three other teams got
sent to the corner by the NCAA. The
Cowboys will be in the corner for four years
with no TV and probably no dinner.
Nationally, the big winner is reputed to
be Notre Dame.
Great recruiting classes are nothing new
for the Irish. Under Gerry Faust, Notre
Dame had at least two consecutive years
when their class was described as “the best
in the nation”.
But even though Faust could probably
convince a rabbi to sign with the SS, once he
got the talent into South Bend they would
hibernate for four years.
But Holtz is getting the best in the
country of his kind of players. The first
ingredient in his recruits is speed. One of
top catches from this class is Shawn Smith
from Buena, N.J.
Smith is not just an outstanding
linebacker but spends the off-season as the
state champion in high school sprints.
Speed, baby, speed.
But Notre Dame has the reputation, and
probably rightly so, for squeaky clean
recruiting.
Now let’s talk about the University of
Miami.
Not exactly known for obeying mores,
ethics or even criminal codes, the
Hurricanes were able to land two of Texas’
top players.
One is Jessie Armstead, the linebacker
from 5A state champion Carter High
School. Mr. Armstead had said his choices
were narrowed to A&M and Baylor and all
others had been eliminated.
But, lo and behold, at the last minute the
cavalry rides in and saves Armstead for the
Hurricanes.
Yea!
But the last-minute plot thickens.
Tuesday, Dallas Roosevelt wide receiver
Kevin Williams verbally committed to
Miami after leaning heavily toward UCLA.
Wait a minute. Haven’t we seen strange,
last-minute changes like this before? Yeah,
it was when Hart Lee Dykes changed his
commitment from Illinois to Oklahoma
State.
And who was the head coach at OSU
when that happened? Jimmy Johnson?
Well isn’t he the head coach at Miami
now?
He is?!
I recommend that the NCAA get some
reservations for Miami. Because the trend
just may continue.
