A&M softball clinches invitational
No. 14 LadyAggies
perform behind
strong pitching
By Stewart Doreen
The Battalion
The 14th-ranked Lady Aggie
softball team gave head coach
Bob Brock an early birthday
present, coming from behind to
beat No. 5 Long Beach State
University 3-2 to win the cham
pionship of the 15-team Aggie
Invitational.
The Aggies, who improved
their record to 16-9, fell behind
the 49ers 2-0 after LBSU's
Nicole Ochoa hit a solo homer
in the fourth.
A&M came back in the top
of the sixth when Mya Truelove
hit a bases-loaded sacrifice fly
to center, and Barbi Tuck hit a
two-run double to give the Ag
gies the lead they would not re
linquish.
"This was a big win," Brock
said. "I almost feel like we won
the World Series, it's been so
long since we won our own
tournament."
Kim Gonzalez threw her
third complete game of the day
improving her record to 12-4.
Gonzalez, who led the
NCAA with 33 wins last year,
threw 37.2 innings in the tour
nament allowing only three
earned runs.
"I can't say enough about
Kim Gonzalez," Brock said.
"She pitched three games in a
row and showed the type of
player she is. That gave us a lot
of confidence."

Texas Tech
By Jose de Jesus Ortiz
The Battalion
Texas Tech's Jason Sasser had 30
points,14 rebounds and played the entire
game as the Red Raiders downed the Ag
gies, 89-80, and moved to a second place tie
in the Southwest Conference with the Ag
gies on Saturday.
The Aggies finished the first half with a
40-39 lead, largely because of the three-point
shooting of seniors Brett Murry and Chuck
Henderson.
Henderson scored all 12 of his points in
the first half after making all four of his
stuffs wilting Aggies
three-point attempts. Murry made two of
three attempts from behind the three point
line and finished with 13 points in the first
half.
But Henderson went 0-3 from behind the
three-point line in the second half. Murry
also had a slow second half, scoring only
four points.
With the Aggies leading, 44-43, with 17
minutes remaining in the game. Tech went
on a 12-point run that the Aggies did not re
cover from.
Sasser led the rally with seven points and
three rebounds.
"Sasser was a very active player," Murry
said. "He was always moving and getting
those rebounds."
Senior point guard David Edwards, who
scored 14 of his 16 points in the second half,
said Sasser's and Tech's rebounds were the
main keys to the Red Raiders's victory.
"We had to stop Sasser from rebound
ing," Edwards said. "But they all rebound
ed well, and (to win) we had to keep them
off the boards."
The game was billed as Senior Day for
the Aggies, and Edwards said it would have
been nice if the seniors could have finished
their careers at A&M with a winning record.
