much as we can, and we feel
she’s one of the top middles in
the country. In all the matches
that we’ve played well, she dom
inates, and she did a great job of
that tonight.
Munsch’s eight kills was her
lowest in a three-game match
since being held to seven against
Marquette on Aug. 29.
“When 1 went up to hit I had
at least two and sometimes three
blockers on me at all times,”
Munsch said. “It’s very chal
lenging to put the ball away
when you have four huge arms
up in front of you. Sometimes
you can’t see the court as well,
and it’s very difficult.”
Wednesday was a far cry
from A&M’s match in Nebraska
on Sept. 17, when the Aggies
took the Buskers to five games
before Nebraska prevailed.
Munsch and Jones combined for
36 kills in the match, and A&M
held a 2-1 lead before falling.
“We helped their whole
game,” said A&M coach Laurie
Corbelli. “I don’t feel like our
block ever got going. They were
in their system all night. They
could do no wrong almost. We
were out of our system. Our first
touch would have our setter
pulled off the net a lot.”
The loss drops the Aggies three
and a half games behind league
leading Kansas State in the Big 12
title race. Nebraska’s win kept the
Comhuskers one game behind the
Wildcats, who have won 11
straight matches. Nebraska plays
at K-State Nov. 15.
“I thought this was a big
match tonight for either us or
A&M to stay in the race,” Cook
said. “A&M had to win tonight to
stay in the race, and we certainly
had to stay in there. That was a
very big match in the Big 12.”
The Aggies return to action
Saturday against Oklahoma.
First serve is set for 7 p.m. at G.
Rollie White Coliseum.

weekends ago,” Smith said. “It’s
a good time to get a win.”
The road to a Big 12
Championship goes through the
No. 5 Colorado Buffaloes, who
won their first-ever Big 12 regu
lar season championship this
season. Colorado will face
eighth-seeded Missouri with the
winner facing the A&M-
Nebraska winner.
Colorado swept the postsea
son Big 12 awards boasting Big
12 Player of the Year Fran
Munnelly, Coach of the Year
Bill Hempen and Freshman of
the Year Katie Griffin.
“The individual honors are
great for our program,”
Hempen said. “The fact that we
had only one player named to
the first team shows that this
season is not based around one
player, but it’s truly a team that
plays well together.”
Texas is the No. 2 seed by
virtue of its double overtime vic
tory over the Aggies, and will
have the upper hand in its side of
the bracket. The Longhorns
begin by playing Oklahoma
State, with the winner taking on
the winner of a Kansas-
Oklahoma match-up.
“I think we’re a different team
now,” said Texas coach Chris
Petrucelli. “We were really
struggling as a team (earlier in
the season), but we’re just play
ing better right now.”
With this Big 12 Tournament
having so many possible cham
pions, for the first time maybe in
history, every game will be a
fight. The Aggies know they
have a team that can run the
gauntlet and survive.
“We know that we can win
the Big 12,” said A&M coach G.
Guerrieri. “Now we have a sec
ond shot at a couple of teams that
knocked us off. We just have to
go and get it done.”

Festival in Cary, N.C., Bonn finished third overall, just nine sec
onds off the lead, in a highly contested race featuring some of the
nation’s top runners.
“My success at the Great American Festival really did surprise
me,” Bonn said. “I didn’t think I was ready to do that well yet.”
So what has been the difference this season? Bonn attributes it
to his training.
“In the past I concentrated more on the 1,500, but last spring I
really started focusing on the 5K. I think it has really given me an
edge for this cross country season,” Bonn said.
He also notes that team unity has given him a real boost. The
cross country team has come together as a family, and Bonn
believes this has motivated all of them to run stronger.
A&M cross country coach Dave Hartman agrees.
“The fifth year seniors like Tommy have really brought this
team even closer,” Hartman said. “I think it has helped the team as
a whole as well as the individual runners. They have become more
goal-oriented, and ultimately better.”
Whatever it is, it has worked. The men’s cross country team is
currently No. 20 in the nation, its highest ranking ever, and Bonn
is on his way to becoming an All-American.
As for life after A&M, Bonn has Olympic aspirations.
“There is not much of cross country after college, but I plan
to train for the trials next year in either the 1,500 or the 5K,”
Bonn said.
But before he tries for the Olympics, Bonn said he still has
some things to accomplish at A&M.
“I want to put the standard up there, where A&M distance run
ning is recognized out of state,” Bonn said. “I want us to be men
tioned up there with schools like Arkansas and those boys from
Stanford.”
