made up for the secondary’s shortcomings
while it found its feet. Glenn, along with Bri
an Gamble and Cornelius Anthony, kept the
UTEP passing game from getting out of hand
by putting pressure on quarterback Rocky
Perez.
Gamble led the unit with 13 tackles, in
cluding a sack, an interception and a pair of
pass deflections.
Glenn added 10 more stops with two sacks
and two passes batted down. Anthony round
ed it out with eight stops and a sack.
“We showed it tonight,” Glenn said. “I be
lieve we are (the best linebacker unit). We
came together at halftime and said we were
going to win this game no matter what.
“We had to step it up and we did that.”
The young players in the defensive back-
field found their feet in the second half, team
ing up with the linebackers to allow only 50
passing yards and 37 on the ground in the fi
nal 30 minutes.
Walk-on safety Wes Bautovich continued to
lead the defensive backs with eight stops while
defensive end Ronald Flemons posted 12.
Behind the scenes, the game was won in
the trenches. A&M’s offensive line set up the
Aggies’ most balanced attack to date, pro
tecting the quarterback and opening up the
run.
‘They’ve done great,” Farris said. “People
don’t realize it, but 1 haven't hardly been hit
at all this year.
“1 got hit a couple times tonight, but that’s
part of football. They’ve done a great job.
They won the game, if you ask me,” he said.
Back-up quarterback Colby Freeman
closed out the game with a 15-yard touchdown
run in the final minute.

timeout of the match and regrouped
to put the score at 14-12. Kansas
scored once more, but A&M ended
the second game on a block by ju
nior setter Jenna Moskovic.
A&M jumped ahead early in
game three by scoring 10
straight points, putting the
score at 10-2. Kansas started
to close in» on the Aggies by
moving the score to 11-9,
but A&M scored four
straight points and ended the
game and the match on a
Jayhawk hitting error.
“With each match, I’m
more committed to certain
things that this team can do
better,” Corbelli said. "I am
determined to get them
there. It’s my job to push
them even harder with
every match.”
Marshall led the Aggies
with 17 kills and a .424 hit
ting percentage, while junior
outside hitter Michelle Cole
added 16 kills. Junior defen
sive specialist Beth Wey-
nand recorded a career-high
and match-high 13 digs to
lead A&M’s back court.

lo inside the 18-yard box. Tamporel-
lo beat the defender and shot the ball
just inside the left post for her first ca
reer goal, bringing the score to a 2-1
Mean Green lead.
Tamporello said she was excited
about scoring her first goal as an Ag
gie in the regular season and was glad
she could help out her team.
"It felt great,” Tamporello said. “I
didn't do it for myself, it was all for
the team. Coach told me to get out
there and get the team going and that
is what I did.”
The goal seemed to raise A&M’s
confidence level.
“That’s how it is in any game,”
Tamporello said. “You need one lit
tle thing to get it going. In this case,
we just pass the ball like A&M does,
we play like we know how to play —
one good thing leads to another and
it's all downhill from there.”
The Aggies’ second goal came in a
frenzy of action. With 14:36 remain
ing in the game, senior midfielder Al
ison Peters passed the ball to freshman
midfielder Kristen Strutz at the top
right corner of the 18-yard box. Strutz
crossed the ball to the far post, where
Tamporello headed a ball that was de
flected by the North Texas goal keep
er off the crossbar. The ball returned
to Peters who headed it over the keep-
' er for the Aggies’ second goal.
The Aggies then received a penal
ty kick courtesy of a Mean Green
handball in the penalty box with 7:36
to play. A&M senior midfielder
Heather Wiebe tied the game as her
shot from the penalty spot slipped in
side the left post.
A&M’s slow start was due in part
to North Texas' play. Guerrieri said
North Texas took advantage of its op
portunities and the Aggies did not.
“North Texas did a great job,”
Guerrieri said. "Every time they got
a sniff at goal, somehow they found
a way to [score].”
A&M managed to hold the ball on
North Texas' side of the field for most
of the game, but the Mean Green’s of
fense proved to be difficult to contain
— especially the play of Marilyn
Marin.
Marin scored two of North
Texas’ goals and provided an assist
for the other.
North Texas soccer coach John
Hedlund said he was happy with his
team's performance despite the loss.
“I can’t say enough about how hard
our kids played and how proud I am of
them,” Hedlund said. “They just bat
tled throughout the 90 minutes.”
Guerrieri said the game was a
good experience for the team.
“We hope it gives them confi
dence in what we're doing, and also
a little bit of learning that you've got
to go out and you’ve got to go 100
percent,” Guerrieri said. “Positive re
inforcement is much better than neg
ative reinforcement.”
