Lady Aggies host
weekend matches
By SCOTT WUDEL
Of The Battalion Staff
The Lady Aggies hope they have
the same luck this weekend that they
did two weeks ago.
The Texas A&M volleyball team
will host the Lady Aggie Classic this
weekend at G. Rollie White Col
iseum.
The Aggies face the University of
Kansas today at 7 p.m. Saturday,
A&M plays host to Sam Houston
State University at noon and finishes
the tourney with North Carolina
State at 7 p.m.
The Lady Aggies are 7-12 and are
coming off two hard fought losses to
conference opponents Houston and
Texas Tech.
Two weeks ago the Lady Aggies
hosted and won the Texas A&M-
Hampton Inn Invitational, losing
only one game in three matches.
The victories helped boost the Lady
Ags’ confidence after a long road
trip.
A&M coach A1 Givens says win
ning another tournament could
greatly help the team.
“Definitely,” Givens said. “I think
we want to go out and have a suc
cessful outing this weekend, to pre-
are not only for the week to come,
ut just to get to the point where we
are feeling good.”
The Lady Aggies almost upset
12th-ranked Texas Tech Wednes
day night. Givens said the match was
a hard fought battle and that the
team feels positive with its perfor
mance.
“That’s the important part, to
keep focused on the process,” he
said. “We’re a much better team
right now than we were three weeks
ago.”
“We’re playing high-level volley
ball, and I think we’re starting to get
consistent on our side of the court.”
Kansas is 9-12 coming into the
tournament. North Carolina State
posts a 4-9 season record.
A&M will try to avenge a loss to
Sam Houston State in September,
which the Lady Aggies struggled
through a three-game loss to the
Bearkats on the road.
The Lady Aggies are 6-2 while
playing in G. Rollie White.
“We need to pick up some W’s,”
Givens said.
“Nothing builds success, like suc
cess.”
X*etters to tlxe Sports Editor
EDITOR:
Just a note to welcome all you
poor Aggies to the Cougar Den this
weekend where we’ll kick your arro
gant butts all over the floor. You
won’t be playing the Sisters of Poor
this weekend — it’ll be a real football
team. Just like your lousy trip to
LSU, we’ll do even worse to you.
We also wanted to congratulate
your wonderful 12th Man Kickoff
Team for their great job with Tech.
Now they’re benched, and by Satur
day afternoon we’ll have the rest of
you 12th men sitting down, benched
and crying.
And don’t think this year you can
make enough noise to cause our QB
to miss signals like last year. After
your pitiful showing with Tech and
LSU, most of you fans will stay home
Saturday and we’ll have the Dome to
ourselves.
Good luck. You’ll need it, now
that the best paid players in the con
ference have left your school along
with their outlaw coach, Shady Sher
rill.
C. Srader, Diehard Cougar
EDITOR:
Those of us who have ‘stood
united’ at Kyle Field (and scores of
other stadiums) know what it is to be
outscored. It was quite another thing
to see coach Slocum refute 68 years
of 12th Man Tradition last Saturday.
To publicly abandon those ded
icated men of the 12th Man Kickoff
Team should cause student outrage.
I know many Of Ags will wonder,
poised over their check books, if
Coach thinks the 12th Man Founda
tion passe.
Van Redman, DVM ’57
P.S.: A note to John David Crow
Please don’t let R.C. scrap Dr.
Gill’s statue. It wouldn’t bring
enough to fund a scholarship kick
off team.

downs. Sophomore Marcus Grant
also has 20 catches and sophomore
Tracy Good leads the team with 30.
A&M cornerback Kevin Smith
said the key to success against the
Cougars is not in stopping their
vaunted offense, just slowing it
down.
“If the Run-and-Shoot is on, it’s
hard to stop,” Smith said. “But it’s
not really stopping it, it’s containing
it. You keep the score low, keep the
ball (offensively) and play real good
defense.
“If they could get their defense to
stiffen up a little more, it might be
different.”
In fact, if there is one weakness on
the Houston team, it is in their de
fense.
Last year against Arkansas, the
Cougars scored 39 points and
racked up 571 yards. However, the
defense yielded 45 points and 647
yards as the Razorbacks scored 28
second-half points to win.
This year Houston returned only
two defensive starters and will enter
Saturday’s game with the second
worst defense in the league, giving
up almost 400 yards a game.
All offense and little defense
could pose a problem for the Cou
gars. The Aggies have proven
they’re not so bad on offense either.
The A&M rushing game, led by
center Mike Arthur, guards Mike
Pappas and Keith Alex and tackles
Matt McCall and Jason Rockhold, is
averaging 312 yards a game — fifth
in the nation.
The Aggies are coming off a 28-
24 win over Texas Tech in which
tailback Darren Lewis had a career-
high 232 yards. Overall, the A&M
offense averages 480 yards a ball-
game.
This will be the fourth time the
Aggies have faced Houston since
they installed the Run-and-Shoot.
The Cougars have yet to beat the
Aggies with it.
In 1988, the last time the Aggies
played in Houston, A&M sacked
quarterbacks Ware and David Dacus
eight times and came away with a 30-
16 victory. The last time the Cougars
beat the Aggies was in 1984, a 9-7
win in the Astrodome.
For Houston to come away with a
victory, it will have to figure out
which way the Aggie defense is
going so it can get its blitzkrieg of
fense rolling. More importantly, the
Cougar defense will have to find a
way to stall the A&M offense and
keep them from eating up the clock.

rationale behind the kickoff team’s
possible demise.
“We are not dropping the 12th
Man team!,” Slocum cleared the air
again with a smile on his face.
Slocum said the touchdown was
merely a matter of football
circumstance — a poor kick and
poor coverage. As with anything
else, it can be easily corrected.
So what kickoff team runs on to
the field when A&M plays the
Baylor Bears in its next home game
next weekend?
Buy a ticket to the game and don’t
be late.
