Friday, February 21, 2003 SPORTS THE BATTALION A&M travels to Kansas State By Troy Miller THE BATTALION When a basketball team’s leading scorer finishes with only 11 points, that usually spells trou ble. That fact was no different for the Texas A&M women’s basket ball team (10-13, 3-9 Big 12) as it lost 38-46 to Iowa State. Junior guard Toccara Williams and junior forward Janae Derrick both had 11 points to lead the Aggies. A&M shot only 30.6 per cent from the field in the game. “We just didn't shoot the ball well,” said A&M Head Coach Peggie Gillom. "We didn’t score, but we had the shots. We can't wait until late in the game to try to come back and win.’’ This is nothing new to the Aggies, as they have shot 38.5 percent from the field for the sea son. Shooting is the key for this Aggie team having only lost one game in Big 12 play in which they shot 40 percent or better. Now the Aggies set their NEWS IN BRIEF WILLIAMS sights on No. 5 Kansas State (24-2, 11-1 Big 12) who could be their tough est opponent yet. If the Aggies want to compete, they must be able to shoot the ball better than they have lately. KSU has won six straight games since its loss to Iowa State in Ames, Iowa. The Wildcats are also undefeated at home at Fred Bramlage Coliseum and will have its third consecutive sellout when the Aggies travel to Manhattan, Kan. Good defense will be crucial for the Aggies. Against Iowa State, A&M allowed a three- point barrage which crippled the Aggies early. “(Iowa State senior guard Lindsey) Wilson got those threes right off the bat,” Gillom said. “We guarded her much better in the second half, but left others with wide open threes.” Overall, the Cyclones hit six of 17 three-point attempts to shoot 35.3 percent from behind the arc. Kansas State is even better from behind the three-point arc. Sophomore guard Megan Mahoney averages 13.6 points per game and is 43 for 98 from behind the three-point arc. Sophomore guard Laurie Koehn is fourth on the team in scoring by averaging 13.5 points per game and shooting 43 percent from three-point land. The Wildcats have exhibited some subpar first half play this season, but typically they have been able to bounce back late. “Obviously, when you line up against the top-tier teams in this league, your leeway is much smaller,” said KSU Head Coach Deb Patterson. “So, I don't know that it is always a good thing, but 1 do respect our team’s ability to fight.” Texas A&M will travel to Kansas State to face the Wildcats Saturday at 2 p.m. Softball Aggies pursue sweep of conference rival Tech The Texas A&M men's basketball team will attempt to defeat the Texas Tech Red Raiders for the second time this season on Saturday. The Aggies (13-9, 5-6 Big 12) kept Tech Head Coach Bobby Knight from reaching his 800th win when the two teams met on Feb. 1 at Reed Arena. This week, the Red Raiders (14-8, 4- 7 Big 12) will be playing on their home court. Knight's team is still in search of its fifth conference win after losing to the No. 3-ranked Texas Longhorns, 77-65. A&M enters Saturday's game riding a 66-54 victory over conference rival Iowa State University. A&M senior guard Bernard King scored 17 points in the winning effort. Saturday's game is scheduled to begin at 12:45 p.m. Continued from page 5 helping lead the Sooners to three Big 12 championships and a national championship. “I’ve faced A&M before with OU, and I know Coach Evans does a great job,” said Wichita State Head Coach Tim Walton. “We are excited to come down to College Station where the crowd is always into the games. I think you’ll see quality effort from our team from innings one through seven.” Evans said she anticipates a tough game, facing her for mer Big 12 counterpart. “Wichita State has a new head coach in Tim Walton, and I know that he’ll have his team prepared,” she said. “We don’t know a lot about the teams that we’ll play this weekend, but every game is important to us because we need to win them to help us achieve our goal of getting to the World Series.” The Aggies also face a Southeastern Louisiana team this weekend that is hungry for a win and looking to play the role of spoiler. The Lions have already faced a murderous schedule that includes teams such as No. 11 Florida State and No. 13 Georgia. The team competed in the Florida State University Seminole Classic and the Louisiana- Monroe Mardi Gras Classic, with the Lions’ only win com ing against Mardi Gras Classic tournament winner Tulsa. ing Break with STS!
