Show-up Wynalda Continued from page 5 court at A&M in the 2000 season, and has since gone on to become an impact player as well as an admired teammate and role model on and off the court. “She’s got the work ethic in school and brings in on the court. She works hard every day and gives everything she can,” said team mate Melissa Munsch. A&M coach Laurie Corbelli added, “(She is) definitely a role model, she models great discipline and work ethic.” Wynalda’s work ethic has been just as strong in the classroom, where she touts a GPR of 4.0 entering this semester. When she gradu ates in August she will do so with a bachelors and masters degree in finance from the Mays Business School and plans to work for a respected firm in Dallas. . “(Her accomplishments are) pretty incredi ble in my opinion for the major she’s in, she is very bright, but she works very hard to get her A’s,” Corbelli said. “If she didn’t work hard she could get a ‘B’ here and there, but that’s not good enough for her. The amount of time she spends doing something she loves for the University and to represent the University is pretty incredible.” Taylor Continued from page 5 all, the receiver position is stacked for years to come. “I don’t think we’ve ever had a lack of play- makers,” said senior offensive lineman Alan Reuben “I think we’re just giving them more opportunities to shine.” One of the things Taylor hopes to relay to his receiving teammates is that it doesn’t pay to be soft in the game of football. At 6-foot-2 inches and 197 pounds, Taylor doesn’t like to be considered a finesse receiver. He likes to punish opposing defen sive backs as well when he isn’t making catches and scoring touchdowns. “You can’t go out on the football field and be soft,” Taylor said. “It’s not a soft game. You have to have the mentality of either being the hammer or the nail, and I try to more often be the hammer than the nail.” One thing that is clear is that Taylor will leave a lasting legacy at A&M as one of the greatest receivers in school history, and that’s something for all the receivers who come behind him to aspire to. “Jamaar has been pretty consistent week in and week out,” said A&M coach Dennis Franchione. “He’s certainly made some big plays for us. Some weeks Jamaar is going to make more catches, some weeks Terrence will. It just depends on how they’re going to defend them.” Prosecutors accuse Bryant attorneys of smearing accuser EAGLE, Colo. (AP) — Prosecutors accused Kobe Bryant’s attorneys of deliberate ly smearing the reputation of his accuser Tuesday as they asked a judge to make sure any evi dence about her sexual history is heard behind closed doors. In a sharply worded court fil ing, prosecutors said defense attorney Pamela Mackey stepped over the line last week when she asked a detective at NEWS IN BRIEF the preliminary hearing whether injuries to the 19-year-old woman were “consistent with a person who had sex with three different men in three days.” That question prompted Judge Frederick Gannett to end the hearing, which was to resume Wednesday. The hear ing will determine whether the NBA superstar will stand trial on a sexual assault charge. Prosecutors said the ques tion was a “deliberate and cal culated” attempt to elicit testi mony on evidence irrelevant so early in the case and came even though “attorneys are expected to proceed in an eth ical manner.” “What was even more unex pected was her conscious misrepresentation of the evi dence in order to smear the victim publicly,” prosecutor Ingrid Bakke wrote. “The bell cannot be unrung. It will be difficult enough to overcome Ms. Mackey’s misstatement of the facts.” Mackey’s voicemail said she would not return calls from reporters. Prosecutors want Gannett to hold discussions about the accuser’s sexual history in pri vate, if he determines the evi dence is relevant.
