Saturday night, Rollerson taught the Rice Owls a lesson about scor ing inside. Rollerson scored an A&M career-high 18 points and added eight rebounds, one shy of her A&M high, as the Lady Aggies rolled to a 74-60 win at G. Rollie White Coliseum. The forward, a transfer from Trinity Valley Community Col lege, was especially strong in the second half, when she poured in 10 points, including nine from the free-throw line, and grabbed three offensive boards. The Owls never led after the Lady Aggies went up 10-8 ear ly in the first half and clamped down the defense, forcing 17 turnovers and limiting Rice to 39.7 percent shooting. The win improves the Ag gies’ record to 15-9 overall and 6-5 in the Southwest Confer ence, while the Owls dropped to 11-12 overall, 4-7 in confer ence play. The Lady Aggies dominated the game, leading by as many as 17 points early in the sec ond half before Rice answered with two streaks of eight points.

TAMPA, Fla (AP) — Two ma jor rules changes involving the be havior of Olympic athletes — ran dom drug testing and a code of conduct — received preliminary approval Sunday from the U.S. Olympic Committee. The USOC’s governing execu tive committee agreed in principle to order all Olympic sports to stage out-of-competition drug tests on short notice. The commit tee will pick up the entire $1.5 million annual pricetag for the package, the toughest anti-doping program in the world. It also gave a tentative ur; changes in the code of conduct [j U.S. Olympic athletes. The re: sion — sparked by embarrassiv incidents at the last two Games- would give the USOC control me America’s Olympians up toti days before entry deadlines at; would force all team members: accept the code without changi or be barred from the squad. While final review from all letes and individual sports miii still be completed next montli officials said they were certai: both proposals would be read] for adoption when the ful USOC board meets in SanDieg in April and could be impli mented in time for the Summt Games in Atlanta. The only bright spots for the Owls came from ju nior center D e b i Williams, who came off the bench to score 17 points, us ing her 6-foot- 4-inch frame to muscle past defend ers in the paint. Branch LaLonde chipped in another 12 points and nine assists and sophomore guard Gina Cafagna added 12 points. Rice used a 4-for-7 perfor mance behind the three-point line in the first half to stay close in the game, even taking a quick 8-6 lead in the first few minutes of the game. Then Spinks came alive, scoring 10 points on 5-of-7 shooting, including a stum bling drive into the lane that capped an eight-point run and gave the Aggies a 23-13 lead that it never surrendered for the rest of the game. The second half started with much of the same, with A&M scoring 10 of the first 12 points and cruising to a 52-35 lead. The Owls never got closer than six points the rest of the game. Thi Mon Febru.
