L ast Fri
day, a lo
cal televi
sion station
ran a story at
the top of its
sportscast stat
ing they had
learned that
the Dallas
Morning
News would
run a front
page implicat-
i ing Texas
A&M players
and some
coaches in a widening scandal of il
legal payments from an Aggie boost
er.
As everyone who ran out to the
( local stop and rob yesterday morn
ing at the crack of dawn to get a
copy of the DMN knows, that story
1 did not run.
Mercifully, thankfully, finally
something went right for a football
program that has been careening to
ward disaster since mid-December
of last year when the News first
broke the "Gilbert pay-for-sleep" de
bacle.
Unfortunately though, this foot
ball program is not out of trouble
yet.
There are at least three reasons
why the story did not run.
Reporters have been wrong

The sportscaster that works for
the local network affiliate could
have been given some bad informa
tion from a source he trusted.
If this is the case, the story will
never run and a local television fig
ure has his ego chopped down to
half of its normal size for a few
months. And while he will probably
not be in any danger of being sued.

Lady Aggies hold off TCU, 79-74 A&M tops Frogs
- / C ' C7 in first SWC,
road victory
A&M ups record
to 9-5 after third
straight victory
By DAVID WINDER
The Battalion
Every time freshman point guard Lisa
Branch touched the ball Saturday night,
one of the Lady Aggies scored.
Branch set a Southwest Conference
record with 19 assists as Texas Christian
made a late charge before falling 79-74 in
G. Rollie White Coliseum.
Yolanda Brown led the Lady Aggies
with 14 points, with Beth Burket and
Branch both chipping in 12. Amy Bum-
stead had 27 points for the Lady Homed
Frogs, scoring 20 in the first half.
The Lady Aggies went on a 22-8 run to
begin the game as they scored 12 points
on eight TCU turnovers. Bumstead then
scored 11 of the next 12 to bring the Frogs
back into the game at 22-20.
"I'll take the blame for the lull in the
first half," A&M head coach Lynn Hickey
said. "I did a mass substitution and I
looked up and there was only one starter
on the floor."
Branch then took over as she handed
out seven assists and hit a key three
pointer to give the Lady Aggies a 41-33
lead at the half.
"I learned that I had eleven assists at
halftime," Branch said. "That's when I
told the girls that I wanted to break the
record."
She did not miss a beat coming back
from the break, giving out two quick as
sists to make the score 45-34. Debbie
Biermann scored her tenth point on a
layup to give the Lady Aggies their
biggest lead at 57-42.
"I gave Debbie a look there in the sec
ond half," Hickey said, "And the way
she responded, I think I am going to have
to start giving her some more looks."
After getting no closer than 10 points
for most of the second half, the Lady
Horned Frogs found themselves only
down 75-71 after a jumper by Rachel

FROM STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS
Riding a three game losing streak after
heart breaking losses to Rice and the Uni
versity of Nevada-Las Vegas, Texas A&M
coach Tony Barone said he was tired of
moral victories.
Texas A&M 60, Texas Christian Uni
versity 58 was a real victory.
Barone and the rest of his Aggie bas
ketball squad played in another tight
game that wasn't decided until the final
shot on Saturday, but for the first time in
a long time the Aggies were victorious af
ter the shot had been attempted.
"I started wondering if anything good
was going to happen for us," Barone
said.
The outcome could have been very
different as A&M did not capitalize on
opportunities late in the game to put the
contest out of reach, missing five of seven
free throws in the final minutes of the
game to let TCU have a shot at victory.
The Horned Frogs squandered that
opportunity when Allen Tolley missed a
free throw that would have brought TCU
to within one point of the Aggies with 12
seconds remaining in the game.
But TCU's Jentry Moore came down
with the rebound and had his three point
shot attempt rattle around the rim of the
basket before falling out as A&M’s Brett
Murry was fouled, giving A&M another
chance to put the game away.
Murry, however, missed both free
throws, and Moore drove the ball down
the floor before he dished the ball to By
ron Waits who missed a turn around
jump shot at the buzzer, preserving the
Aggie victory.
Junior Guard David Edwards led all
A&M scorers with 17 points and 3 assists,
as Sophomore forward Damon Johnson
added 12 points and shot .750 from the
floor.
The Aggies outshot the Horned Frogs
.514 to .426 on the afternoon, and despite
poor free throw shooting down the
stretch, won that category also, .655 to
.571.
