Lady Ags suffer first loss ASMVdr ''
Staff and Wire Reports
The sixth-ranked Texas A&M Soccer team suf
fered its first defeat of the season on Sunday,
losing to No. 10 Nebraska 1-0 before a record
crowd of 1,129 at the Abbott Sports Complex in
Lincoln, Neb.
Nebraska midfielder Kari Uppinghouse scored
the game’s only goal, connecting from 18 yards out
in the 27th minute of the contest.
The Aggies fell to 9-1 overall for the season and 3-
1 in Big 12 Conference play, while Nebraska stayed
undefeated at 9-0 and 3-0 in the conference.
“Basically, we got beat up,” A&M Head Coach G.
Guerrieri said. “Nebraska did a good job of playing
direct and bypassing the midfield, where I thought
we had some advantages. They finished their
chance, and we had a couple of opportunities that
we did not put away. It (loss) is disappointing, but
we will move on and learn from it.”
The Aggies were held scoreless for only the third
time in the program’s four-year history.
A&M returns to action next weekend with
matches against Big 12 rivals Colorado, Oklahoma
State and Oklahoma.

Steelers bully Oilers, prevail 30-K
PITTSBURGH (AP) — The
Houston Oilers may yet chal
lenge Pittsburgh in the AFC Cen
tral Division. Right now, the Oil
ers aren’t in the Steelers’ league.
The Oilers dared oft-erratic
Steelers quarterback Mike Tom-
czak to beat them Sunday and he
did, throwing two first-quarter
touchdown passes following
Houston mistakes to lead Pitts
burgh’s 30-16 victory.
The Steelers (3-1) have won
three straight since a season
opening loss to Jacksonville,
matching their best first-month
start under coach Bill Cowher.
The Oilers (2-2) missed a chance
to take the divisional lead and
have lost five straight to Pitts
burgh and seven of nine overall.
The Oilers’ game plan was to
run rookie Eddie George, stay
close and let Tomczak beat him
self with critical mistakes. In
stead, Pittsburgh won with al
most an identical plan as Jerome
Bettis ran for 115 yards — his
third straight 100-yard game —
and Houston quarterback Chris
Chandler threw two intercep
tions and lost a fumble.
Tomczak did give Houston a
chance, throwing an interception
that Darryll Lewis returned 36
yards for a touchdown in the third
quarter. The score came only 2:21
after Chandler’s 4-yard touchdown
pass to Willie Davis and briefly cut
Pittsburgh’s lead to 20-14.
But Norm Johnson’s 36-yard
field goal put Pittsburgh up by
nine points, and Darren Perry
finished off the Oilers with a 13-
yard interception return with
5:17 remaining to make it 30-14.
The Oilers may have come in
too excited and too eager to show
they had caught up to Pittsburgh.
They had two fumbles and a
blocked field goal in the first half,
when Steelers defensive end
Brentson Buckner could be heard
yelling to George, “You’re not run
ning against Iowa any more.”
The Oilers apparently let them
selves get distracted by the Steel
ers’ swagger and yapping, losing
