The Battalion AMPUS GlLLOM Continued from Page 1 "We're talking to coaches, and 1 need to hire two more people. We're on it." Gillom wants to get the team on the right track toward winning games and working toward the goal of a National Championship. She said she wants the complet ed player—a good student, a good athlete and a good citizen. "Texas A&M has a great win ning tradition," Gillom said. "I want to add to that, and have fun doing it." Prissy Sharpe, a junior for ward on the women's basketball team, said she is excited about the addition of Gillom, and she thinks she will interact well with the players. "She's ready to get in here, and get everything going back on schedule," Sharpe said. "I re ally like her, and she's going to be able to relate with the players really well." Gillom said she is glad to be part of Texas A&M and lucky to be part of such a supportive environment. "I have been a Rebel, and 1 was a true Rebel," she said. "I've been a Comet, and I was a true Comet. Now Tm an Aggie, and I'm going to be a true Aggie." The Greys Thursday • Juiyj By Gar ...50 THAT STkAMGrE . .light Vou all savHn I THE m WAS JUST.
