Basketball
team rejoices
over victory
Continued from Page 1
Ironically, A&M's last SWC win
in College Station came on March
3, 1990, against Texas Tech in the
final home conference game of the
season.
Damon Johnson, whose free
throw with eight seconds left put
the Aggies up by two points, said
the A&M team had something to
prove.
"We really wanted this one,"
Johnson said. "Especially for the
seniors, because it was their last
game. Plus, we wanted to give the
crowd something for next year, so
they don't get down on us and
think we're not going to win any
more.
"It's as sweet as can be."
Sophomore guard David Ed
wards said he hopes the win sends
a positive message to A&M fans
about the potential for successful
basketball in Aggieland.
"We've been playing hard all
year," Edwards explained. "No
one can really say that we just give
away games during the whole sea
son.
"We're just trying to make
Texas A&M a better basketball
program because we just want to
win."
Aggies beat Tech, end home slide

once on that play, and I'll never
lose another one. The other guy
might have scored, but he wasn't
going to."
Barone said the final minute
seemed like 40 minutes, but in the
end the team did what it needed
to do to win.
"I told the kids this after the
game, 'When you play a close
game, it always comes down to
defense and free throws,'" he said.
"I thought we hit most of our
free throws. I thought our defense
was outstanding at the end of the
game. I was proud of our kids for
what they did."
What they did was hold Tech
to two points in the last 5:22 of the
game. During that stretch, the
Raiders went l-for-6 shooting.
The game was close the whole
way. The two teams went back
and forth early in the first half be
fore Tech scored six straight
points to take a 19-12 lead.
But the Aggies came back be
hind four Johnson free throws and
a Chuck Henderson jumper to
close the gap to 19-18. A Tony
McGinnis layup with four minutes
left gave the Aggies a 24-23 lead.
A&M led at halftime, 32-29.
The Aggies came out in the
second half and controlled the
tempo early. They maintained
their lead until Tech's Brad Dale
hit two free throws with 7:08 left,
putting the Red Raiders on top#
48.
But with five minutes remain
ing, A&M senior forward Antho
ny Ware hit a jumper that gave the
Aggies a 55-54 lead, one which
they would not relinquish.
Chuck Henderson and John
son each scored 11 points in the
game to lead the Aggies. Shedrid
Anderson added ten points and
contributed a team-high ninero
bounds.
Lance Hughes led Tech with
11 points and Flemons chipped hi
10.

games between the top three or
four teams should be televised.
This is where the picture starts to
get a little fuzzy. It looks like
ABC is not trying to promote the
conference, but trying to pro
mote the Longhorns.
The reason ABC scheduled
this game is so Texas could get a
big win in front of a nationally
televised audience before tourna
ment play begins. It's basically a
public relations move for the
Longhorns.
Enter Barone and the Aggies
into this scenario.
If ABC, or anyone for that
matter, thinks it is going to get
away with a planned, televised
execution of the A&M basketball
team, they probably would want
to ask Tony and the boys if it's
all right first.
The last time the Aggies and
the 'Homs tangled, it was any
thing but a runaway.
Tom Penders and the boys
from Austin were lucky to es
cape G. Rollie White Coliseum
with a win. Playing against an
A&M team that gives more effort
than anyone in the conference,
Texas looked like anything but
an 11-2 team.
But this is not why Sunday's
game will be televised, either.
ABC is counting on the fact that
the first game was close because
it was in College Station. There
fore, the matchup in Austin will
be lopsided.
This is just the kind of slap in
the face Barone and his troops
need to go into Austin and show
Texas up.
This is A&M's chance to
show the rest of the country that
no matter how bad their record
looks, they can compete with
anyone in the conference when
they are determined to win.
