The talk of the recent college basketball
season has been Lamar. Fortunately for the
Texas A&M Men’s Basketball Team, their op
ponent yesterday was Lamar University and
not the University of Rhode Island’s freshman
sensation Lamar Odom as the Aggies man
aged to hold off the pesky Cardinals 77-69.
The win improved A&M to 6-1 for the first
time since the 1988-89 season.
Junior guard Clifton Cook led four Aggies in
double figures with a career-high 27 points, but
the real story was the play of sophomore for
ward Aaron Jack and junior forward Jason
Boeker in a key second-half surge.
Jack tallied 10 points and seven rebounds
while Boeker grabbed five rebounds and provid
ed a much-needed defensive presence in his 12
minutes in the second half as the Aggies closed
the game by outscoring the visitors 14-6.
“I’m going to give credit to Jason Boeker and
Aaron Jack,” A&M coach Melvin Watkins said.
“They came in there and seemed to re
bound, put a body on people, and pick our
whole team spirit up.”
The second half made up for another strug
gle in the first half as the Aggies were out-re
bounded and out-hustled as the Cardinals built
a 35-32 lead.
Lamar guard Matt Sundblad scored 13 points
in the first half and A&M went to the break trail
ing for the fourth time in their last five games.
“We had a lack of effort in the first half.”
Watkins said. “That was not a good Aggie ef
fort there.”
Lamar held the lead for the first 6:48 of the
second half before Cook hit a three-pointer to
tie the contest at 49-49.
The next several minutes featured numerous
ties and lead changes. After Lamar forward Rock
Winston made a jump shot with 5:39 left to tie
the game for the last time at 63-63, two free
throws by Jack gave the Aggies the lead for good.
Cook added a three-pointer and a short
jumper in the lane and Jack scored off of an
offensive rebound to cap a 9-0 Aggie run to
push the lead to 72-63.
The Cardinals would score six straight points
to close within three, but Cook assisted to
sophomore guard Michael Schmidt, whose ball
fake and lay-up extended the margin to five.
Schmidt had 10 points for the game.
One free throw by Cook and two by
Schmidt closed out the scoring. Senior for
ward Shanne Jones was the fourth Aggie in
double figures with 10 points.
A&M swim team takes first Open medals on lasti
BY JASON LINCOLN
The Battalion
In a single week the Texas A&M
Student Recreation Center Natato-
rium was host to swimmers from
30 different countries and gave way
to 67 record swims, including three
world records.
“The opportunity of hosting this
many people for five straight days
in College Station, and to finally let
the people know that this pool is
one of the fastest pools in the world
is just phenomenal,” A&M men’s
coach Mel Nash said.
The final day of U.S. Open ac
tion concluded appropriately with
the Texas A&M Men’s Swimming
Team taking first and third place in
the final event of the evening, the
400-meter freestyle relay.
David Morrow, who swam in the
winning relay, gave the Aggies their
first medal earlier in the evening
with a second place swim in the 100-
meter freestyle with a time of 49.29.
“It feels really good,” he said.
“It’s gratifying that your hard work
is paying off. ”
The Aggie women’s team did not
record any top three finishes but
had a number of finals swims.
“This [U.S. Open and World
Cup] shows we can compete
against top-notch competition,”
A&M junior Monica Williams said.
The teams’ performance sets up
Aggie swimming for a strong sea
son going into the spring.
"We swam really well and
we’re not very rested," Aggie
women’s coach Don Wagner
said. “This sets us up to be real
competitive at the conference
meet. The girls definitely have a
confidence about them and that
means a lot.
“This meet was a great show
case for the University and for the
future of the program.”
Megan Quann, 14, set her sec
ond American record of the week
in the 200-meter breaststroke with
MIKE PUENTES!!
Forward Aaron Jack drives the laneaga;
a time of 2:25.52.
“It was a lot of fun.’s
“A lot of people were sari
just a sprinter and lean
200. But I came out to
proved them wrong."
