Sports Writer of THE BATTALION
Texas A&M gets a chance to
face the other end of the spectrum
tonight when they host the 2-0
University of South Alabama at 7
p.m. in G. Rollie White Coliseum.
Five days after falling 81-55 to a
physical Missouri team in their
home opener, A&M will tip off
against a small, hustling squad in
the Jaguars that specializes in de
fense and running the floor.
Despite the similarities to his
own team, A&M head coach Tony
Barone said the athleticism of
South Alabama, much like Mis
souri's bruising style, can present
opponents a few problems.
"South Alabama is an extreme
ly athletic team," Barone said. "Of
die three teams we have played so
far, they're probably the most ath
letic."
The centerpiece of head coach
Ronnie Arrow's Jaguar squad is
point guard Cedric Yelding, a for
mer Sophomore of the Year in the
Sun Belt Conference who special
izes in dishing out assists and
opening up scoring opportunities.
Yelding, who led the Sun Belt a
year ago in assists by averaging
7.1 per game, has picked up other
aspects of his game this season.
He logged a career-high 20 points
in USA's 107-100 win over West
Virginia, and had three steals in a
68-66 defeat of St. Louis.
Barone said stopping Yelding
will be a high priority for the Ag
gies, who will be focusing on pre
venting turnovers that South Al
abama loves to take advantage of
on their way to opening up leads.
"He's a kid that we have to be
concerned with and be aggressive
against," Barone said.
The Jaguars have shown a re
cent affinity for crashing the
boards in spite of the fact that
their tallest player, like A&M, is
only 6-foot-8. As a result, the Ag
gies will be looking to heat up
their rebounding.
"It (the key defensively) has got
to be rebounding," freshman for
ward Lance Broderson said.
"From our scouting report I know
that they've already got 42 offen
sive rebounds in two games.
"They're a quick team, so
we've got to get back on defense."
Barone remained extremely
pleased about A&M's season
opening crowd of 6,498, the
largest home crowd for an Aggie
game in almost four years.
"It was an incredible turnout,"
Barone said. "We, as a staff, were
very appreciative of that.
"We've turned the corner from
the standpoint of fixing up G. Rol
lie White, which we needed des
perately. Now we want to contin
ue to get the students in here."
