What has Wilbert done to de serve this severe penalty, you ask? Well, all he did was try to protect his coach and teammates from a mob of over-zealous Texas Tech fans in Lubbock on Saturday. The videotape is by now famous. The Aggie men had yet again come from behind to grasp victory from the jaws of defeat. They celebrated for a few moments, perhaps shouting a few, "In your faces!" to the crowd. And then the real excite ment began. Several Tech fans started to shout and throw punches at head coach Tony Barone and the First An nual Out-of-the-Blue "Barone Bash" began. The Aggies tried to make it to the dress ing room, but those pesky Red Raiders were persistent. They attacked coach Barone and the rest of the players and a huge brawl ensued. Enter Wilbert's fist and exit one Scott Patterson. Wilbert threw a punch that landed right on Patterson's See Rival / Page 6 Lady Ags in rematch with UT By Kristine Ramirez The Battalion The Texas A&M Lady Aggie basketball team will travel to Austin to duel with archrival Texas tonight at the Frank Erwin Center at 7:30 p.m in a rematch of the 75- 74 Aggie home win on January 11. The Aggies are coining off of an emotional over Texas Tech 67-64 Saturday. The Lady Aggies are 7-0 in the Southwest Conference and 15-3 in season play while the sec ond-place Lady Longhorns are 14-5 for the season and 6-1 in the SWC. The Lady Aggies are No. 25 in the AP Top 25 Poll for the first time in A&M history. Head Coach Lynn Hickey said facing Texas will be a tough task especially in Austin. "They will be out to knock us out/' she said. "We have a history of playing well there. You have to be ten points better than them. It will be okay once we get in the flow of the game." Hickey said the team needs to control Texas' offensive transition, dribble penetration and freshman guard Danielle Viglione. They also have to be patient on offense. Viglione is averaging a confer ence high 23.2 points per game. Aggie sophomore guard Lisa Branch said stopping her will be a key part of the game plan. "Outside shooter Viglione is a big part of their offense and I think we have to key in on her," Branch said. "She's not afraid of putting it up. We just have to make sure she's not making it." Sophomore center Kelly Cerny said the team also has to stay fo cused. "We have to go in there with a great amount intensity, know what we have to do, get in there and pull it out," Cemy said. Branch said the win against Tech was great but it's time to con centrate on the rest of the season. "We've enjoyed the win," she said. "We haven't forgotten about it, but it's over. It's time for anoth er game." Hickey said the team is ready for the second half of the season. "The second round will be tougher because of the travel situa tion," Hickey said. "You have to win on the road" The team needs to "take one game at a time" and "take care of each other." "We put ourselves in the oppor tunity to be in the hunt," Hickey said. "We started off strong. They believe in themselves now." WHO: Lady Aggies v. UT Lady Longhorns WHEN: Wed.

Ivan Rezek, coach of the Czech pairs team of Radka Ko- varikova and Rene Novotny, doesn't think Harding belongs in Lillehammer. His skaters, the 1992 world silver medalists, agree. "Her behavior does not go along with the Olympic ideals," Rezek said Tuesday. "It's a time for unity and peace. "She does not belong here be cause she is involved — at this moment at least — for not com ing forward and speaking the truth about what she knew of her husband's involvement." Harding's presence would make Kovarikova uncomfort able. "If I would have to stand next to her, I would not feel good about it," she said. "I certainly would not want to be her room mate or have the room near her. She should stay home." She might be forced to when she faces a USOC hearing on Tuesday. But for now Harding is a member of the American team, and her teammates have been in undated by questions about her and the Nancy Kerrigan attack. n Fellowsk inAIIFaiti — .1 Kathy at 69: Get togell ■ss Box at Kj ill Mary fa isexual Ag n. in 292B!i!! e at 847-fc 5 Club: joii: at 8:45 pi ter.
