enough decern
dose to a team
By SCOTT WUDEL
Of The Battalion Staff
If the Lady Aggies had two wishes, the first would be
to play all their games in tfie friendly confines of G.
Rollie White Coliseum ... the second would be not hav
ing to play any teams ranked in the Top 20.
The Texas A&M volleyball team made their second
road trip of the season last weekend.
After a scenic but rough vacation to Hawaii to play
the former second-ranked Wahines, the Lady Aggies
ventured to Nebraska to face three of the nation’s
toughest teams in the Baden-Mizuno Invitational.
Friday night the Lady Aggies were crushed by No. 1
Nebraska, 15-0, 15-3, 15-3.
Saturday didn’t get much better as A&M was de
feated by No. 20 Wyoming 15-13, 15-7, 17-15. Later
that day, Purdue blew past the Lady Aggies 15-0, 15-3,
15-9.
A&M was blanked in the first game of the match
when Nebraska outside attarker Fileen Shannon made
six kills in six attempts. The Lady Aggies had not been
shut out in a game for almost three years before Fri
day’s match.
The First point of the match for A&M was marked by
Sheila Morgan and Amy Kisling who combined for a
block, making the score 3-1 in the second game.
The Buskers ran off six points to open the third
game before Lady Aggie Raychelle Michalke came in to
serve and hit a winner, followed by a service ace to
make the score 6-2. A&M’s Genny Wood posted a kill
but it wasn’t enough to heighten the Aggies chances.
A&M made it a little tougher on the Wyoming Cow
girls Saturday. Michalke lead the Lady Aggies with
seven kills as Wyoming had to come from behind in two
of the three games to pass A&M.
LAter Saturday, Purdue ran off 23 straight points
before the Lady Aggies got on the board. A&M’s Amy
Gumings lead the team with eight kills before they lost
the third match of the weekend.
The 2-6 L.ady Aggies play their next match on the
road Thursday against Lamar University in Beaumont.

ame," Offensive Coordinator Boh
Toledo said. “It was an incredible
;ame played by a hunch of kids who
vanteu to prove that they were a
iretty good offensive football team.”
If anyone had any doubts about
hat, they were quickly erased in the
irst quarter when the Aggies put up
>1 points. The highlight was a 68-
/ard touchdown pass from Pavlas to
ihane Garrett on a “blast pass.”
It was the same play the two
ouldn’t convert in last year’s 23-22
oss to Arkansas. Pavlas faked the
landoff to Lewis and stood in the
ackfield with the ball behind his
lack. When the USL safety took the
ake and moved toward the offen-
iveline, Pavlas threw downfield to
nopen Garrett.
“We’ve never been 2-0 since I’ve
leen here,” Pavlas said. “I’d like to
nake it three.”
If No. 12 A&M continues to play
he way it has in the first two games,
:may make it well past three. Two
op 10 teams lost Saturday — No. 4
lichigan and No. 9 Colorado.
With its impressive win over pre-
lously unbeated USL, the Aggies
could break into the Top 10 for the
first time since 1988. The Associated
Press poll is released today.
“This is what we’ve been waiting
for,” backup quarterback Bucky
Richardson said. “We’ve been wait
ing to have this kind of game. We’re
tired of being a couple of games
short and a couple of points short.”
That hasn’t oeen a problem this
season for A&M, who through two
games has outscored its opponents
91-26. The Aggies dominated the
first half against Hawaii in the sea
son opener, but looked flat in the
second. A&M was well prepared not
to let a second-half letdown occur.
The coaches have been preaching
to us the past two weeks that we can’t
let up,” center Mike Arthur said.
T he Aggies didn’t, a fact which
wasn’t lost upon USL.
“We came out ready to play, but
obviously right off it looked like
A&M was ready to play,” USL quar
terback Tyjuan Hayes said. “Our de
fense gave up some big plays, and
our offense wasn’t able to execute.
A&M has a great club. That’s why
they’re 12thi anked.”

“Overall, I’m especially pleased

Brock noted that defensively the
team did an excellent job, and that
the Aggies hit the ball hard and of
ten, but usually right at somebody.
“Right now, I’m having fun
watching everybody’s progress,”
Brock said. “I have a real positive at

this will be a great team come spring

Brock and his Lady Aggies will

IOC president
proposes games
‘Olympic truce’
TOKYO (AP) — An “Olympic
truce” to heal the world’s wounds
was proposed Sunday by the head
of the International Olympic:
Committee.
IOC president Juan Antonio
Samaranch said the Games
should “become the privileged fo
rum for the encounter, reflection
and action of the rising forces of
our world.”
The address, which opened the
IOC‘s annual meeting, broke
little new ground but touched
upon the sports impact of the
Middle East crisis, the economic
and political problems facing the
Soviet Union and Eastern Eu
rope, efforts to end apartheid in
South Africa and the spread of
drugs throughout society.
Tne IOC, with 167 member
nations, was the perfect umbrella
under which answers could be
found to such problems, Sama
ranch said.
“By establishing between them
a kind of Olympic truce in keep
ing with the hopes and needs of
our time, these rising forces could
come together beneath the sym
bol of the five interlinked rings to
make a reality of those values
ceaselessly proclaimed and cease
lessly called into question: free
dom, the greater welfare of all,
solidarity and peace," he said.
Japanese Emperor Akihito for
mally opened the session. Earlier,
Prime Minister Toshihi Kaifu
asked the IOC’s executive board
to support the bid of Nagano, Ja
pan for the 1998 Winter Games.
That vote comes next year.
