total over the weekend.
Midfielders Andrea Starns, Jessica Martin
and Amber Childers each joined Ragsdale by
sinking one in the back of the net.
But it was the midfielders who provided the
impact play Sunday.
Just minutes before kickoff, freshman mid
fielder Ashley Murray went down with what ap
peared to be a tom ACL in her right knee. If so,
it would mark the fifth A&M player to be side
lined with the long-term knee injury.
Despite the loss of a starter, the midfield took
over the game.
“Our emphasis this week was to pressure
and win balls in the middle field,” A&M coach
G. Guerrieri said. “Our midfield did a good
job of that.”
That midfield was responsible for three assists
and three goals against the Buffaloes and was the
key to the Aggies’ ball control for the entire game.
“Our outside midfielders gave some of the
best crosses today,” Tamporello said. “All they
did was put the ball behind their defense, and all
we had to do was run into the ball, make a con
nection and the ball will do the rest.”
Meanwhile, the defense kept the Aggie keep
ers from working hard. After allowing Texas
Tech only a single shot, the back line gave up
only four to Colorado.
“This is the first weekend we’ve really come
together,” said defender Amber Reynolds.
“Everybody is really starting to mesh well, and
our confidence is much higher.”

Tamporello said the team
has adopted a new attitude.
“We’ve got a new little slo
gan,” Tamporello said. “It’s
‘Whatever It Takes,’ and from
this point on, that’s what we
use. This [victory! is a great
confidence booster for this
team. This is where our season
starts, and we are only going
to go uphill from here.”
With the shutout, the Agj-
gies will add a bagel to the
“bagel pole,” a tradition
which began last season. Af
ter every A&M shutout, the
team will hammer a bagej
into a pole located behind the
Aggie Soccer Complex
grandstands.
At season’s end, all the
bagels will have blown away
or been eaten by birds, but a
nail will remain in the pole as
a reminder.

Colorado returned from a timeout to tie the score at
13-13 on an A&M error, but Cole came through in the
end. She pushed the Aggies ahead with a kill, and then
pounded another attack to give A&M the game.
Colorado scored the first two points of game three, but
A&M came back to take the lead 3-2 on another Cole kill.
With the score at 5-4, A&M scored four consecutive
points to extend the Aggies’ lead to 9-4. Colorado called
a timeout, but the Aggies came out and scored two more
points thanks to kills from Gibson. However, the Buf
faloes found momentum and began to knock down
A&M’s lead.
The Aggies called a timeout with a 13-12 lead, then
called another timeout after Colorado took the lead and
posted game point. Eventually, a Colorado kill gave the
Buffaloes the third game.
“Our attacks started to become less intense, and they
[Colorado] jumped on that,” A&M coach Laurie Corbel-
li said.
In the fourth game, A&M bounced back from the
game three loss by taking a 6-0 lead. After a Colorado
timeout, the Aggies moved the score to 7-0 with a block
from Marshall and Moscovic.
Once again, the Buffaloes defensive skill powere^
their comeback, and A&M called a timeout with the score
at 11-8.
The Aggies found momentum and finished off the
Buffaloes with two kills from Gibson for the match.
Gibson led the way for the Aggie offense and defense^
as she posted match and career highs in kills (25) and digs
(35). Cole set a career high in kills with 21, and Marshall
set a career high in digs with 23. ]
“We played awesome defense,” Corbelli said. “Our
blocking is coming around in spurts, and that’s probably
our biggest weakness. It’s just going to take some fine
tuning in practice.”
On Sunday, the Aggies concluded their home stand;
defeatingTexas-Pan American 15-3,15-5,15-1 at G. Rob
lie White Coliseum in a non-conference match.
Freshman outside hitter Beth Skypala led the Aggie$
with a career-high 10 kills, and senior setter Claire Hau
vey posted a season-high 33 assists. !
A&M will travel to Lincoln, Neb., on Saturday to bafi
tie the No. 1 University of Nebraska Cornhuskers. The
match will take place at the Lincoln Center at 2 p.m. J
