The Lady Aggies are still in sec ond place behind the University of Texas but A&M Head Coach Jeanne Sutherland said the team is optimistic about their chances. “This is still winable,” Sutherland said. “As a team, we have to avoid big mistakes but we’ll also have to play aggressively. When you do that you are walking a fine line. But when you’re 10 back you have to shoot at the pins and trust your game. “After the way we started today we know we can come back. The three finishing holes are tough and we need to play them well tomorrow and maintain our focus. We played the 18th at five over par today.” Texas’ Heather Bowie is still in first place after setting a course record with a 68 in the second round. A&M’s Isabelle Rosberg is in second after two rounds of 148, which is her lowest 36-hole score of the year. Rosberg, who was paired with Bowie yesterday, said she was happy with her putting improvement. “Yesterday, I couldn’t make a Malone Continued from Page 5 “Once I realized how benefi cial the redshirt year was going to be 1 enjoyed it a lot more.” Head Coach Mark Johnson said Malone has improved his game since coming to Aggieland. “He’s a better ball player all the way around,” Johnson said. “He’s a better defensive player and his arm is better than it was last year. The most notable thing is his bat. As an outfielder/first baseman type guy you’ve got to have a bat unless you’re just real ly special defensively. “He’s having better batting practice and giving us a feel that he’s going to make something happen in a game. He just hadn’t played a lot of games yet.” Malone made the best of the few games he played this season. In 32 at-bats Malone is hitting .406 with five doubles, two triples and 10 RBIs. But because of a talent-laden outfield, Malone has only seen action in 11 games, including seven starts, mostly as a designated hitter. Malone said he is fortunate to have the opportunity to play. “I was frustrated (with the limited playing time) towards the middle of the season,” Malone said. “But it was from my immaturity rather than looking at the whole picture. I look at it now and I’m 100 percent happy with what has happened. putt and today I made every putt I looked at,” Rosberg said. “I hit 14 greens today and only seven yes terday but I had only 26 putts, my lowest ever and that was fun. “This is my lowest score of the year after two rounds so I’m happy with my game.” A&M junior Jamie Hullett is tied for third, Wendi Wight is tied for ninth, Aurora Kirchner is tied for 22nd and Anna Becker is tied for 51st. “We started really well today, it looked like we had a lot of confi dence and some things going,” Sutherland said. “We pulled even with Texas about the fourth hole, but we made some misses on the back nine and, let it get to us. “Isabelle played really well and I was proud of Aurora for coming back like she did. They both played with a lot of determination.” Kirchner said her putting saved her. “I hit some greens today and my short game was a lot better,” Kirchner said. Kirchner said the Lady Ags have a good shot in the final round to overtake Texas. “We’ve got to all play well tomor row and hopefully Texas will make some mistakes,” Kirchner said. Play will commence at 8:50 this morning. “1 don’t think I could ask for anything more than a chance which coach Johnson gave me. I think he made the right decision.” Malone’s versatility may give him more than a chance. The out fielder has spent some time at first base and as designated hitter. “With 11.7 scholarships you can’t go out and recruit a whole bunch of guys,” Johnson said. “The more guys you have that can play more than one position, the better it is for your team, and the better the chance that guy can get into the line up. “We’ve been giving him a lot of work at first base because that gives him another shot if someone goes down at first. Or maybe he becomes the first baseman. You throw the DH, first base and outfield in and you’ve got a guy that can fill three different holes for you.” If Malone continues to resem ble former A&M standout John Curl, he is assured of seeing more playing time. “When he came here his power was to left center field, the same as John,” Johnson said. “They’re guys that hit opposite field home runs and didn’t really turn on the the ball much. He also has the possibility of having a legitimate home run swing.” If Malone does develop the home run swing maybe he can distinguish himself from Curl comparisons. When a clutch hit is needed, the Aggies can bring in Patrick ‘Mayday’ Malone.
