Aggies split pair with SWTS
By Scott Wudel

LINKER S. MILLS/The Battalion
A&M’s Sittichoke Huckuntod is out attempting to steal second base Tuesday.
Transfer’s
decisions leave
many doubts
hat is it like to be Tony
Scott?
It can’t be a tip-toe through the tulips.
For those who
don’t know who
he is, Scott is the
6-8 forward who
transfered from
Syracuse to A&M
last fall to play
basketball.
Oh, and to get
a college degree,
too.
Scott said last
November before
the Aggies’ bas
ketball season
began that he came to A&M because of
the growing competition of the South
west Conference, and the building of the
new special events center.
Funny thing is if Scott had used sim
ple arithmetic he would have realized
that he would be long gone by the time
the new arena was budt and ready to
play in.
Lie No. 1 ? Possibly.
Obviously.
He said he had considered transfering
to the University of Arkansas and the
University of Texas before he came to
A&M on his official \isit.
Scott must have been overwhelmed by
G. Rollie White Coliseum and the chance
to play for a team that gets television ex
posure from Oklahoma City to the Rio
Grande River.
Obviously not.
Maybe he really liked first year coach
Kermit Davis Jr., proclaimed by some to
be the “boy wonaer” of college basket
ball today.
It doesn’t look like it.
In December, Scott accused the A&M
basketball program of violating NCAA
rules, labeling his new coach as the man
responsible for underhanded wheeling
and dealing.
Why?
See Wudel/Page 9
The Aggies were hot and cold Tuesday.
The Texas A&M baseball team split a
doubleheader with Southwest Texas State
University in its home opener at Olsen
Field.
The Aggies (3-2) got off to a hot start in
the first game, defeating the Bobcats (8-1)
by a score of 4-1. Then A&M went cold in
the second game, losing 4-3.
A&M will host Mary Hardin-Baylor in a
single game tomorrow at 3 p.m. at Olsen
Field.
SWT pitcher William Brunson (2-0) held
the Aggies to just three hits in the second
game.
A&M baseball coach Mark Johnson said
he was frustrated with the Aggies’ offensive
performance.
“I’ve got to give (Brunson) credit,” John
son said. “But I just can’t imagine us strik
ing out 14 times, that is embarrassing.
“We’re going to have to get better than
that or we’re not going to win many ball
games.”
Freshman Jay Hogue (0-1) drew his first
collegiate start for the Aggies and let four
Bobcat batters reach base before recording
the first out.
Hogue said he was overcome by the at
mosphere of Olsen Field.
“It’s kind of a lifetime dream to play in
front of those fans there,” Hogue said. “But
after a couple innings I got used to it.
“I was just a little bit snaky. I’ll know what
to expect the next time I come out.”
Hogue’s first pitch was lifted to right cen-
terfield for a double. Three hitters later,
the pitcher found himself with the bases
loaded and no outs. SWT’s Gary Hermann
singled to left field to score two runners,
and the third run crossed the plate on a sac
rifice fly.
A&M’s Mike Hickey hit a two-run home
run with one out in the Aggies’ half of the
inning to close the gap to 3-2.
Hickey said he wasn’t totally sure the ball
made it out of the park.
“When I first hit it I knew it was on its
way out, but it hit the top of the scoreboard
and came down on the field,” Hickey said
about his first home run in an Aggie uni
form.
“I thought it was still in the park, so I
started sprinting again,” he said.
The two teams traded runs in the second
inning but neither could change the run
column on the scoreboard the rest of the
game.
A&M had the opportunity to tie or take
the lead in the seventh inning. Travis Wil
liams beat out a throw to first base to give
the Aggies’ their first hit since the second
inning.
A&M loaded the bases with two outs be
fore Brian Thomas struck out to end the
last rally attempt.
The Aggies wasted no time swinging the
bat in the first game.
Two outs into the first inning, Hickey
laced a liner into centerfield past the out
stretched glove of the S WT pitcher. Conrad
Colby took first base after being hit by a
pitch, then Davit! Rollen singled to left field
to bring in the first A&M run.
Blake Pyle followed with another hit to
left field to score Colby from third base and
give the Aggies a two-run lead.
In the third inning with a runner on
base, Colby blasted a home run past the
Texas flagpole in right-centerfield to score
the Aggies’ third and fourth runs.
Bullard (2-0) was impressive in his third
start of the season. The senior pitcher re
corded seven strikeouts in five innings of
work.
“I think the main thing was that I was
able to get ahead early in the count,” Bul
lard said. “That helped me to throw some
pitches that I like to throw.
“The hitters don’t like to hit those kind of
pitches when the pitcher gets ahead.”
Trey Witte relieved Bullard in the final
two innings, and tossed five strikeouts.
Lady Ags
win, 84-77
By Craig Wilson

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is the best
way to describe the Texas A&M Lady
Aggie basketball performance Tuesday
night at G. Rollie White Coliseum.
The Lady Ags, who held on to beat
the SMU Lady Mustangs, 84-77, played
excellent basketball in the first half but
almost fell apart in the second.
A&M jumped out to a 37-21 halftime
lead behind an eleven-point first-half
performance from Shawn Medlock.
The junior guard scored on five of
her six field goal attempts in the first
half, as the Lady Ags shot a blistering
63.6 percent from the floor.
The second half, though, was a differ
ent story.
SMU mounted a huge second half
comeback and tied the score three times
in the final stanza.
Lady Mustang junior guard Suzanne
McAnally, scoreless at halftime, scored
18 unanswered points in the second half
to lead SMU in scoring.
Junior post Brenda Bruggeman
added 16 points and a team-high 10 re
bounds to the Lady Mustang effort.
Medlock led the Lady Ags in scoring
with 16 points.
A&M’s leading scorer, Yvonne Hill,
added 15 points and a team-high 6 re
bounds.
Lady Aggie head coach Lynn Hickey
was satisfied with the win, and she said
that other Southwest Conference teams
should be wary of SMU.
“SMU’s a very hard-working team,”
Hickey said. “They’ve got a lot to play
for right now at the end of the season.
“Coach Brown is getting ready to re
tire and that’s on their minds, and
they’re going to want to give a lot to him.
They’re going to be a very dangerous
group for the rest of the season.”
Lady Aggie sophomore forward Ka-
rey Janak was watched closely Tuesday
night.
