Givens
The Lady Aggies' first match
will be at 6:00 p.m. today against
Georgia, with the final two match
es coming on Saturday against
Wisconsin at noon and UTA at
8:00 p.m.
A&M got off to a good start for
the season after charting a four-
game victory over rival Sam
Houston State in the opener for
both teams on Tuesday.
Sheila Morgan, a junior outside
attacker from Houston, led the
Aggies to victory with 15 kills, and
senior Elizabeth Edmiston added
15 more as A&M hit .245 with 63
kills overall.
The Lady Aggies will face three
other quality teams in UTA, the
University of Georgia and the Uni
versity of Wisconsin during the
round-robin style tournament.
"We will be seeing some good
competition early and will be able
season.
The Badgers of Wisconsin
made it to the NCAA region finals
in 1991, finishing the season with
a 23-10 record.
Three starters return to the UW
squad this year, including 6-foot-l
senior middle blocker Arlisa Ha
gan, who won second team All-
Big Ten and All-Mideast honors
after the '91 campaign.
A&M and Wisconsin have nev
er played each other before.
UTA finished second in the
Southland Conference last season
with a 13-18 match record overall,
including a loss to the Lady Ag
gies in five games on Sept. 25.
UTA leads the all-time series
against A&M, 25-19.
The Lady Bulldogs of Georgia
went to the NCAA playoffs in
1991 as well, posting an impres
sive 28-8 record for the year.
Georgia enters the season
ranked 20th by Volleyball Month
ly in their preseason poll.
A&M enjoys a 4-1 match record
against the Lady Bulldogs, but the
only defeat came in the first round
of the 1986 NCAA tournament
which was the last time the Lady
Aggies played in the postseason.
Givens has a 105-105 match
record at A&M since coming from
Mississippi in 1986.
The team will return to College
Station to play their home opener
Monday against Eastern Washing
ton in a 7:00 p.m. match at G. Rol-
lie White Coliseum.
Owners ask Vincent to quit
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ROSEMONT, III. - Baseball
owners overwhelmingly asked
Fay Vincent to resign Thursday,
a move the commissioner imme
diately rejected.
By an 18-9-1 vote, owners
adopted a resolution stating
they had no confidence in Vin
cent, who was elected to a 4 1/2-
year term on Sept. 13,1989.
"We did not discuss what
we're going to do if he's not go
ing to resign," said Chicago
White Sox owner Jerry Reins-
dorf, leading Vincent opponent.
Vincent, who on Aug. 20 sent
the owners a letter saying he
would never quit, affirmed his
decision after the session. He
did not attend the meeting, re
maining in New York because
he said its purpose was unlaw
ful under the Major League
Agreement, which governs
baseball. It says the commission
er's term can't be shortened and
his power can't be diminished.
"I believe strongly that a
baseball commissioner should
serve a full term as contemplat
ed by the Major League Agree
ment," said Vincent, wnose
terms runs through March 31,
1994. "Only then can difficult
decisions be made impartially
and without fear of political
repercussions."
The four-hour special meet
ing, held at a hotel near Chica
go's O'Hare International Air
port, by all accounts unfolded
calmly. New York Yankees man
aging general partner Joseph
Molloy said Vincent's treatment
of Yankees owner George Stein-
brenner and pitcher Steve Howe
were among the issues dis
cussed. The resolution also
made references to labor and
television negotiations and fran
chise stability.
"The sooner he resigns, the
better," Philadelphia Phillies
owner Bill Giles said.
The resolution, drafted by
lawyers for the American and
National leagues, was intro
duced by Douglas Danforthof
the Pittsburgh Pirates. The vote
was taken by secret ballot, but
several owners and officials
identified the Baltimore Orioles,
Boston Red Sox, Florida Marlins,
Houston Astros, Montreal Ex
pos, New York Mets, Oakland
Athletics and Texas Rangers as
eight teams that spoke againstit
Owners said the vote of the
Kansas City Royals was unclear
after the remarks by owner Ew
ing Kauffman, and that Mikell-
itch, who bought the Detroit
Tigers last week, did not speak.
Most of the owners contacted
said they believed the Royals
were the ninth team supporting
Vincent hut were not sure.
Cincinnati Reds owner Marge
Schott left the meeting early,
and her vote was counted as an
abstention. The undecidedsasof
last week — Colorado, Detroit,
San Diego and Seattle - all
joined the anti-Vincent group as
did Atlanta, which previously
said it would support the com
missioner.
"The ball is in his court. If it
comes back to us, then we'll run
with it," said Jackie Autry of the
California Angels. "I don't
know what this means. The only
thing for certain is that 18 peo
ple want to get rid of the com
missioner."
Toronto Blue Jays president
Paul Beeston, elected to preside
over the meeting in Vincent's
absence, read the resolution dur
ing a news conference following
the session.
