A&M stuffs Rice,
grabs conference lead
A&M guard's second career triple
double leads team effort against Owls
By Mark Smith
The Battalion
The Texas A&M men's basket
ball team defeated the Rice Owls,
75-61, at G. Rollie White Coliseum
Saturday, with a balanced offense
and senior guard David Edwards'
second triple-double.
A crowd of 3,835 was on hand
to see Edwards score 13 points,
grab 10 re
bounds and
dish out 10 as
sists.
Edwards
said, however,
that he has
changed his
philosophy to
be more team-
oriented.
"It's the sec
ond one of my David Edwards
career, and it
feels real good, but I don't care
about that anymore," he said. "I
don't pay attention to individual
goals. Coming out of high school,
all I wanted to do was score 30
points a night, but now I want a
ring and a conference champi
onship.
"If we had lost tonight, this

A&M track teams stumble

Individual
performances boost
teams outlook for
outdoor season
By Stewart Doreen
The Battalion
The Texas A&M track and
field teams ended the 1994 sea
son at the Southwest Conference
Indoor Championships with
many quality individual perfor
mances, leaving them optimistic
on their chances for the outdoor
season.
During the meet in which
many Aggies produced season-
best marks, Anjanette Kirkland
produced the Aggies' lone SWC
title as she continued her domi
nance in the women's 55-meter
hurdles.
Kirkland defeated the field by
a quarter of a second, establish
ing a new SWC meet record time
of 7.75.
Kirkland and her coaches said
that a mature mind set allowed
her to perform at a record break
ing level.
"I've been focused on this
race for a while," Kirkland said.
"I just wanted to explode out of
the box and roll."
Assistant coach Abe Brown
said the SWC tournament was
important for Kirkland.
"She was focused on the meet
to win and on being an NCAA
qualifier/'Brown said .
The team did not fare too well
in the team standings with the
the men finishing sixth and the
women placing fifth behind
Texas who won men and
women's titles.
There were performances that
have the coaches looking for a
better outdoor season.
• In the men's 3,000, Jason
Reed turned in a huge effort cut
ting his season's best time by 12
seconds , taking second place.
•Dante Bolden used a strong
finish to place second in the
men's 55-meter dash.
•Mike Miller ran a season's

Lady Aggies pull out championship at
UTA tournament in Grand Prairie,
gain experience versus ranked foes
By Stewart Doreen
The Battalion
the Texas A&M softball team
defeated the University of
Oklahoma to win the Pep
si/University of Texas-Arlington
Inter-Collegiate Classic played in
Grand Prairie this weekend.
The Lady Aggies defeated the
Lady Sooners 9-4 to complete a
three-game final portion of the
tournament during which they
outscored their oppositions by a
combined score of 31-4.
The Lady Aggies bats awoke for
the first time this season in an ef
fort that was no surprise to head
coach Bob Brock.
"We are a talented teafn and
just got to put it all together and go
through a whole game," Brock
said.
The team's play is somewhat
surprising considering the 1-3
record the team posted in pool
play.
The one win against Oklahoma
State University, ranked No. 3 in
the nation, was mixed in with early
losses to nationally ranked Kansas,
Northwestern, and Stephen F.
Austin universities.
The Lady Aggies were in a hole
and asking themselves questions,
knowing they had to perform bet
ter if they wanted to win tourna
ment, Brock said.
"I told them they were still in
the tournament," said Brock.
"They knew that everyone had to
stay up, contribute a little more
and be in the ball game."
The Lady Aggies took the ad
vice and started the bracket por
tion of the tournament against the
Lady Cornhuskers of the Universi
ty of Nebraska.
Brocks words worked and the
Lady Aggies crushed Nebraska, 9-
0, behind a Kim Gonzalez shut out.
"We knew we were a lot better
than the way we've been playing,"
Gonzalez said. "We came out
tonight and played our game."
