A&M soccer head coach G. We are pleased to host [a regional] and to play at home. — G. Guerrieri A&M soccer head coach Guerrieri and the players gathered at Olsen Field Monday as the NCAA bracket was announced. After beating two ranked teams this weekend to claim the Big 12’s automatic bid. the No. 8 Aggies were disappointed that they did not receive one of the top eight seeds in the tournament. “We would have liked to been one of the protected and seeded teams, but it is out of our hands,” Guerrieri said. “We are pleased to host (a regional) and to play at home.” Friday in the first round, UT will face SMU at 5 p.m. and A&M will face SWT at 7:30 p.m. The winners of those games will meet Sunday at 1:30 p.m. Friday’s game will be a home coming for SWT head coach Kat Conner, who was an assistant coach at A&M before taking the head coaching position at SWT. Defending national champion North Carolina claimed the No. 1 seed, followed by California-Santa Clara, UCLA, Portland, Stanford, Florida, Notre Dame and Connecticut. The eight teams will host region- als this weekend and will continue to get home games until they are defeat ed. face a higher seeded team or reach the semifinals. The final four teams will meet in Gerald J. Ford Stadium at SMU Dec. 7 and 9 in the 2001 Women’s College Cup. “The goal is to win it all, and to win it all we would have to go on a couple trips,” Guerrieri said. This year’s NCAA bracket fea tures 64 teams, up from 48 last year. However, only four of those teams are from the Big 12, with No. 11 Nebraska and Kansas joining A&M and UT. A&M’s 1-0 win over UT in the Big 12 tournament championship will be broadcast on Fox Sports Southwest on Thursday, Nov. 15, at 12 p.m. and on Sunday, Nov. 18, at 3 p.m. Struggle Continued from Page 7 might still be talking about the Big 12 South title. And even though the defensive players say there is no rift between them and the offensive unit, no one would criticize them if they felt a grudge about their counter parts’ performance. If the problems are not fixed by the time Texas comes calling at Kyle Field, A&M will be forced to con tinue to compare notes with teams like Ball State and Vanderbilt instead of Oklahoma and Texas.
