Watkins was pleased with the re turn of 6-foot- 11-inch forward Tomas Ress from a staph in fection he de veloped after an appendectomy this summer. Ress con tributed only three points, but Watkins said it was a key per formance for Ress to build on. “I’m glad to have Tomas back; he’s the spirit of our team,” Watkins said. “He didn’t play a lot of minutes, but to have him back out there helps us as well. He’s an integral part of what we’re doing this year, we need him in there, so as soon as we can get some stamina in him, he’s go ing to get a lot more minutes.” “We knew what we had to do. We knew we could play.... Now it's just a matter of do ing it every night” — Andy Leatherman Texas A&M guard Leatherman attributed the victo ry to a change in intensity in the team over the last two days. “We knew what we had to do,” Leatherman said. “We’re tired of losing. We knew that we could play. We knew that we could play with more intensity. We just had to come back and play hard tonight. “Now it’s just a matter of doing it every night,” A strong show ing off the bench contributed 32 points. A&M’s largest lead of the night was shown in the final tally with 33 points, which is Watkins’ largest margin of victory in his A&M coaching career.
