Aggies dedicate 'performance to teammate
I 1
This one was for James
By Scott Wudel
The Battalion

As the final seconds rolled off
the gameclock Saturday night, the
A&M football team walked onto
the field and congratulated each
other for their 34-7 victory over
Southwestern Louisiana.
Freshman Corps members
chased Yell Leaders across the
field, and fireworks went off in the
sky above. It was a time for most
to celebrate, but for dthers to re
member.
A&M football players Keith
Waguespack, Terry Venetoulias,
Reggie Graham, Jason Atkinson,
and others kneeled in the middle
of Kyle Field. They met to pray
for the family of James Glenn, the
freshman football player that col
lapsed and died Wednesday on
that very spot.
Earlier the team had gone
about its business - staying fo
cused and winning the football
game - all the while wearing
Glenn's No. 30 stamped on the
back of their helmets.
Venetoulias, the Aggies' start
ing placekicker, had the best night
He kicked a career-long 43-
yard field goal in the first quarter,
and later topped it with a 44-yard
field goal at the end of the first
half.
But the win was not enough to
make up for the loss of a team
mate.
“This is probably one of the
toughest weeks to ever get fo
cused," Venetoulias said after the
game. “I had one of my best
friends pass away.
"I appreciate the whole team
sticking by me - 1 was pretty
down."
Venetoulias and Glenn were
friends in high school while stand
ing on opposite sides of the field.
Both met again at A&M and be
came as close as brothers, Vene
toulias said.
“Everybody's telling me he's
in a better place and that some
things are meant to be," he said.
"I guess I'm just not mature
enough to understand that - He
was one of my best friends."
The kicker went through the
same motions he always has, but
this time the outcome meant a lit
tle moreon the inside.
“I want to dedicateeverytl
I do, every kick in every ga®
James Glenn," he explained
not going to let his memorydif
It had been a trying wed
the whole team. But it alsota:
them a valuable lesson.
" Psychologically its beena:i|
tough week for us - the strain
ing on and all of the dealing
the funeral and the lossofate
mate," Atkinson said. "Butit
ally given us a chance topi
gether. M
“The lord really blessed
bouncing the ball our way and
ting things come our way. W
really happy that we haveeil
other to lean on."
"It's a sad thing and
was for James and were
could win it for him,
Richardson said.
Glenn was at Kyle Field Sat;
day - in spirit.
His name shows up in the
nal defensive statistics as assis
the team in making a tackle,
his performance his family
ceived the game ball from
A&M team.
A part of James Glenn
never leave Kyle Field.
