Quesada, Anderson take top honors in A&M Men’s Basketball Banquet By Nick Georgandis The Battalion In a lighthearted end to what was at times a nerve racking year, the Texas A&M Men’s Basketball Team honored its best Thursday night during its 1996 Banquet Thursday night at G. Rollie White Coliseum. Along with highlight films of the 1995-96 season, a tribute to lone graduating senior Matt Har alson and memories of seasons past by former A&M players, the evening was host to seven awards given out by A&M Head Coach Tony Barone. The big winner Thursday night was sophomore Dario Quesada, who took home both the "Daniel Scoates Garner Academic Extra Effort” plaque and the “Loraine and Breezy Breazeale Free-Throw Proficiency” trophy. Quesada was the Aggies’ top free-throw converter during the regular-season, nailing 85 percent of his attempts. The “Most Improved” award was no surprise — going to freshman center Brad Strieker. Strieker be gan the year on the injured list, but eventually worked his way into the A&M starting lineup and at 6-feet- 11-inches, became the Aggies’ first legitimate post threat in years. The “Windex” award for re bounding — also known as clean ing the glass — went to freshman Calvin Davis, whose leaping abili ty and hustle made him a fan fa vorite at G. Rollie White. Barone was exceptionally giv ing in his praise to junior guard Tracey Anderson, the recipient of the “Mr. Defense” award. “Tracey played this entire sea son at about 75 percent,” Barone said. “Next year, he will be guard ing the very best guards in the Big 12, people like Jacques Vaughn of Kansas, and I think people will see what kind of a quality player he is.” Anderson also picked up the award for leading the team in scoring. Barone presented a lightheart ed look at the career of Matt Har alson, a fifth-year senior, who walked on to the Aggies during his freshman year. Haralson’s video tribute included several practice shots as well as rare game footage in which he had his shot rejected by Texas Tech’s Jason Sasser. The Aggies begin the 1996-97 season at home with an exhibition against the Melbourne Magic on Oct. 28. Their first Big 12 game will be against the University of Texas on Jan.15, 1997, at G.

Though Bailey does not believe a championship is out of reach, he says that there is a definite sense of ur gency prevailing in the Aggie camp. “Things just haven’t come togeth er for us yet,” Bailey said. “Whatever the cause of that is, I don’t think the coaches or players know. But we re alize that we can’t wait back any longer. If we’re going to put a run to gether, it has to come right now. Our main focus now is getting into the (NCAA) regionals.” Another point of focus in Bailey’s life is academics. Before the season, Bailey received the GTE Academic Achievement Award given to athletes who posted a grade-point average of 3.0 or better in the past academic year. According to Bailey, balancing his academic responsibilities with his work on the diamond is a struggle. “As athletes there’s a lot of times, like after night games when you don’t get home until past 11 o’clock or so, that you have to study when your dead tired and don’t feel like doing much of anything,” Bailey said. “It doesn’t make study time the most productive, but it’s just like anything else — you have to push yourself a little to get the job done.” Bailey is not complaining, however, as he believes that being a major college baseball player has its privileges. But he says sharing an apartment with for mer Aggie football standouts, Corey Pullig and Hunter Goodwin, keeps him from thinking he is a campus celebrity. “Living with two football players puts things is perspective,” Bailey said. “Football is pretty much (wor shiped) around here, and baseball sort of takes a backseat. Believe me, they wouldn’t let me walk around like some kind of celebrity.” Bailey and Pullig both grew up in Deer Park and have known each other since they were seven-year- olds competing in little league. “We were real competitive as kids,” Bailey said. “I guess you could say our relationship started out as one of hatred. In baseball or basket ball, he was always on the other team, and we always had to go up against each other.” So what type of baseball player would Texas A&M’s all-time win- ningest quarterback make? “I’ll just say that if he would have stuck to just baseball, he would’ve made a good player,” Bailey said. “I’ve got to be politically correct on that one.” Dream Teamens? Source reports Barkley, Richmond NEW YORK (AP) — Charles Barkley and Mitch Richmond will be asked to fill the last two spots on the U.S. Olympic men’s basketball team, a source told The Associated Press on Thursday night. Barkley of the Phoenix Suns and Richmond of the Sacramento Kings were chosen for the Dream Team by USA Basketball’s 10-man committee during a conference call Thursday night. If they accept, their selections will be announced Sunday on NBC. The NBA refused comment, say ing the league wanted to wait until the players accept or reject the invi tations. Richmond did not return a call to his hotel room. Barkley could not be reached for comment. The AP learned of the choices from a person close to the selection commit tee who asked not to be identified. Barkley and Richmond would join a roster that includes Anfemee Hardaway, Grant Hill, Karl Malone, Reggie Miller, Hakeem Olajuwon, Shaquille O’Neal, Scottie Pippen, David Robinson, Glenn Robinson and John Stockton.
