Softball team to host UTA
By Pete Burks
THE BATTALION
After spending a weekend on
the West Coast, the No. 21
Texas A&M softball team will
return to the Lone Star State to
take on the University of Texas
at Arlington Lady Mavericks.
The Aggies will head to
Arlington after winning the
Stanford Classic this weekend.
^ The Aggies (16-7) went 4-1
in the tournament, garnering
their third championship week
end in a row.
After showing their offensive
muscle in the St. Joseph Aggie
Invitational II last weekend, the
Aggies did an about face and
relied heavily on their defense to
stifle the opposition last weekend.
On Friday, the Aggies beat Long
Beach State in the first game, 2-0,
but lost a tough one to the No. 12
Georgia Bulldogs, 2-1.
The next day, tournament
host No. 11 Stanford was on the
receiving end of the biggest
Aggie offensive outburst of the
tournament with the Aggies
winning 7-3.
In the night cap, the Aggies
again put away Long Beach State
2-1 to reach the championship
game on Sunday for a rematch
against No. 12 Georgia. This
time, it was the Aggies who got
the best of the Bulldogs with jun
ior pitcher Lindsay Wilhelmson
no-hitting the Bulldogs through
five innings. Wilhelmson later
proved to be her own best friend,
clearing the bases with a line
drive down the left field line in
the top of the eighth to break the
tie and drive in the winning runs.
As a whole, the Aggie defense
was so dominant that opposing
hitters managed only a .189 bat
ting average, allowing Aggie
pitchers to do their work, posting
a 0.96 ERA for the weekend.
While rel
ishing the fact
that her team
won a tough
tournament
this weekend,
A&M Head
Coach Jo
Evans under
stands the
importance of
maintaining the intensity the team
showed in Palo Alto.
“UTA is a very competitive
team, and they have already had
success against teams from the
Big 12,” Evans said. “These mid
week games against Southland
Conference teams are always
competitive, and we can’t afford
to overlook UTA because we
know what happened when we
played Southwest Texas.”
As for UTA, the Lady
Mavericks have had their own
run of success lately, advanc
ing to the championship game
of the 2003 Crimson Classic in
Tuscaloosa, Ala. UTA is led by
junior pitcher Katy Cox, who is
fresh off of receiving
Southland Conference Pitcher
of the Week honors.
Although her team is young,
UTA Head Coach Debbie
Nichols-Hedricks said she has
been pleased with its perform
ance this season.
“We are a very young team
with several freshmen starting
in various spots,” Nichols-
Hedrick said. “We have had
success against the Big 12 and
SEC already this year, beating
Baylor 10-0 and beating
Alabama in Tuscaloosa. Our
freshmen have played well-
above their age.”
Lately, UTA’s freshmen have
played like veterans, including
freshman first baseman Falon
Kwasnick who earned
Southland Conference Hitter of
the Week honors. She finished
the week hitting .333, helping
lead UTA to its 11-9 record, 3-0
in conference play.
After heading to Arlington,
the Aggies will continue their
road trip, heading to Tallahassee
for the weekend to compete in the
Seminole Invitational.

Parcells adds FB Richie to roster
IRVING, Texas (AP) — Fullback Richie
Anderson signed Tuesday a three-year deal with
the Dallas Cowboys, making him the first of Bill
Parcells’ former players to sign as a free agent.
Anderson is the second player to be reunited with
Parcells, joining receiver Terry Glenn, who was
acquired Friday via trade from Green Bay. Terms of
Anderson’s deal were not immediately available.
Anderson is the second free agent to sign,
joining punter Toby Gowin.
The 6-foot-2, 230-pound Anderson takes over
a position that’s been weak since the retirement
of Daryl Johnston. Converted linebacker Robert
Thomas had the job the last few seasons. The
Cowboys drafted Jamar Martin from Ohio State
to challenge Thomas last season, but he suffered
a season-ending injury during the first contact

Baylor
Continued from page 5
Baylor is 2-6 on the road this year but did pull off
Ihe upset in Stillwater, Okla., against Oklahoma
State, handing the Cowboys their first loss at home
this season.
“They have an inside-outside game and their
game is clicking,” Watkins said. “That makes them
a very dangerous basketball team and that’s how
they won a couple of games on the road including at
Oklahoma State.”
Baylor Head Coach Dave Bliss said that as much
as the Bears depend on Roberts and Lucas, he is
hoping for a big game from junior R.T. Guinn.
“Guinn will have a good game and we play well;
he’ll have a not so good game and we don't play
well,” Bliss said. “We need him to play well in
order for us to succeed.”
Watkins said that he is looking forward to the
end of the season and the excitement surrounding
March Madness around the country.
“You’re looking at what’s going on around the
country and all the talk about March Madness and it
doesn't get any better,” he said.“You just want to
put yourself in a position to be talked about and be
apart of (the postseason) and we feel like we’re
right there.”
drill of training camp.
Anderson has played the past 10 seasons with
the New York Jets, including under Parcells from
1997-99. He chose Dallas over New England,
whose staff also has several ex-Jets coaches
from Parcells’ tenure.
A sixth-round pick in 1993, Anderson has
played 134 games, starting the last 64. He made
the Pro Bowl in 2000 after catching 88 passes,
fourth-most in team history, and his blocking
also has been credited with helping Curtis
Martin run for 1,000 yards the last five seasons.
It’s unclear whom he’ll block for in Dallas.
The Cowboys last week released NFL career
rushing leader Emmitt Smith.
As a rusher, Anderson has 722 yards and two
touchdowns on 191 carries. He’s caught 305
passes for 2,449 yards and 10 touchdowns.

match at a 2-2 stand still. It was all TCU Head
Coach Dave Borelli and Kleinecke could do to sit
still, as both anxiously coached from the sidelines.
A&M junior Jessica Roland gave the
Aggies some breathing room on court number
one as she pushed her winning streak to seven
matches in the midst of beating back to back
ranked opponents.
“Ever since the middle of the indoor tourna
ment, she has really turned up her game,”
Kleinecke said.
The match came down to the pairing on court
No. 4 between senior Aggie Ashley Hedberg and
Karla Mancinas. Hedberg gave up only two
games and closed Mancinas out 6-0, 6-2.
“After losing in doubles to start, my confi
dence didn’t return until late in the first set,
Hedberg said. “But I tried to keep her off guard
the whole time. I didn’t want to lose and I didn’t
want the team to lose.”
The Aggies hit the road for their next three
matches, and square off against Duke March 10.
