A&M softball
fall tune-up
By Jeremy Furtick
The Battalion
The Texas A&M Softball Team got off to a good start
this fall season with opening victories over St. Ed
wards College and Sam Houston State University at
the 1996 Aggie Fall Invitational at Central Park in Col
lege Station Saturday.
The tournament gave 16 Texas schools the oppor
tunity to compete against each other in practice
games. No statistics were kept and no line-ups were
made, but Aggie Head Coach Jo Evans said these
games benefit the team’s progress.
“Coaches can always see more in games than
practice,” Evans said. “It’s good to compete in some
game situations and see how our girls respond.”
Evans said the Aggies displayed many positives
but still need more game experience.
“We showed a good mix of speed and power to
day, but we made some mistakes and missed some
signals,” Evans said. “Our girls still have to learn
what they can and can’t do, but that’s what these
games are for. I am excited, though, about our per
formance and effort.”
Evans said one concern she no longer has is her
transition into the head coach’s role.
“Taking over as head coach has been a lot eas
ier than I expected,” she said. “I feel comfortable
with the players and coaching staff. The girls’ at
titude and work ethic have made this a smooth
transition: their maturity has allowed us to con
centrate on softball and not coaching changes.”
Evans said the Aggies need to take Saturday’s
positives and build on them in preparation for
the Pre-Big 12 tournament to be held in Indepen
dence, Mo., Oct. 4-6.
“The next two weeks are critical for us,” she said.
“We’re not ready to dominate the Big 12. We still need
to work on some fundamentals, take some ground
balls, and work on game situations.”
Evans said she feels confident the team will be
ready for a good showing in its first Big 12 competi
tion this fall.
“We have a great group of girls that want to
learn,” she said. “We’ll be ready for the rest of the
Big 12."

Cowboys lose second in a row
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) —
Emmitt Smith couldn’t believe it.
Barry Switzer sounded disgusted.
The Buffalo Bills, missing in
jured starting quarterback Jim
Kelly, relied on their defense Sun
day in a 10-7 victory over the
Cowboys, dropping the defending
Super Bowl champs to 1-3.
“It’s like a bad dream,” said
Smith, who had only 25 yards on
15 carries, his worst outing in near
ly two years. “I can’t believe what is
happening and the reason why it is
happening. Whatever it is, we need
to get it corrected quickly.”
Todd Collins, making only his
second career start in place of Kel
ly, completed 10 of 17 passes for 88
yards and one touchdown before
spraining his right ankle late in the
third quarter with Buffalo leading
10-0. Collins was replaced on the
next series by Alex Van Pelt, who
played the rest of the way.
The Bills (3-1) smothered the
Dallas offense, intercepting three
Troy Aikman passes and limiting
the Cowboys to 192 yards.
“Never in a million years
would anyone have told me that
the Dallas Cowboys would be 1-3
after four games,” said corner-
back-receiver Deion Sanders.
Switzer had one word for his
team’s play: "Dumb.”
“We made some dumb plays,”
he said. “Until we get smarter in
all phases of the game — offense,
defense and kicking game — this
will happen a lot to us.”
The Cowboys are off to their
worst start since 1990, when Jim
my Johnson was the coach and
Dallas was rebuilding. No team
has ever started 1-3 and won the
Super Bowl.
After the game, the Cowboys
sat in the locker room, stunned
for a second straight week after
losing to a team they feel they
should have beaten. Dallas lost to
Indianapolis last week after tak
ing a 21-3 lead.
“I wish I had the answers,” Aik
man said. “The answers are that
we need to run the ball better and
throw the ball better.”
Dallas didn’t score until 5:53
left in the game. A 24-yard catch
by Herschel Walker set up Smith’s
2-yard TD run.
“It was a big-time outing by our
defense,” Buffalo safety Henry
Jones said. “With all the weapons
Dallas has — with Emmitt and Aik
man and Deion (Sanders) — we
had to come up big and give our
offense a chance.”
Aikman was 16-of-33 for 164 yards
for the Cowboys, who were hurt by
costly penalties and turnovers.
