No. 14 Aggies
travel to CU
By Doug Puentes
THE BATTALION
The No. 14 Texas A&M vol
leyball team begins the second
half of its Big 12 season
Wednesday when it travels to
Boulder, Colo., to take on the
No. 24 Colorado Buffaloes.
The Aggies (15-3, 8-2 Big
12) begin the second half in sole
possession of second place in
the Big 12. Colorado (11-6, 6-3
Big 12) is amid a two-game los
ing streak and is in third place in
the Big 12, behind the Aggies.
The first half of Big 12 play
has been good to the Aggies as
they posted an 8-2 record.
However, when they face the
Buffaloes, they will be looking
to avenge one of those losses.
The Buffaloes defeated
A&M in five games earlier this
season at the G. Rollie White
Coliseum. The Aggies took the
first two games of the match,
30-23, 30-24, and seemed well
on their way to a victory.
Colorado bounced back to
win the last three games, 30-28,
30-24, 15-10, to pick up the win,
which was its first in five visits
to G. Rollie.
The Buffaloes also won their
last game against the Aggies last
season, to have two straight vic
tories against A&M.
“I think it’s a great battle
between the two teams,” said
A&M volleyball coach Laurie
Corbelli. “They’ve been off
since last Wednesday, and I
think that’s going to be good for
us because we will hopefully
still be in our game mode ready
to go. They’re a feisty group.
We always have very close
games, so we’re anticipating
more of the same.”
The Aggies are coming off a
30-28, 23-30, 34-32, 30-25 vic
tory over Kansas State on
Monday at G. Rollie. The
Aggies were led on the attack by
senior outside hitter Brandi
Mount. Mount paced the Aggies
with 22 kills and hit a team
record of .354 for the match.
The Buffaloes have tied their
season-long losing streak at two
matches after losing to No. 8
Colorado State and being upset
by Missouri last week.
Colorado was without out
side hitter Sonja Russell for
both games due to a sprained
ankle. Russel, who leads the
team with 3.30 digs per game,
and is second with 3.31 kills per
game, is listed as probable to
play against the Aggies.
The Aggies are off this week
end and return to action at home
against Oklahoma at G. Rollie
on Oct. 31 at 7 p.m.

Jones unveils stadium plans
Cowboys' owner meets with DFW mayors for new sin
DALLAS (AP) — The mayors of Arlington,
Irving, and Dallas met separately Monday with
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones who briefed
leaders of potential host cities for the first time on
his proposed new stadium and entertainment com
plex that could cost $1 billion or more.
But the project to replace Irving’s Texas
Stadium, the Cowboys’ home since 1971, is now
likely delayed both by the terrorist attacks and
weakening economy.
“Our world is different
today than it was two months
ago, and we understand that,”
said Jones. “This clearly is
not a time to talk in more
specifics or in great detail.”
Irving Mayor Joe Putnam
left his meeting with the
Cowboys owner under the

development plans have been pushed back.
“What I have been advised by their representa
tives is because of the events of 9/11 and economic
uncertainty in the country, no stadium proposals or
discussions will be forthcoming for several
months,” said Putnam, who has let City Council
members lead Irving’s charge for a new stadium.
A 100,000-seat stadium for the Cowboys —
surrounded by a year-round destination that
includes football-themed dining, lodging and
other attractions — would open in 2006 at the
earliest. For that to occur, decisions on location.

within the next year or so.
“Our exchange of ideas will hopefully givens
