going to do,” Classen said. “I
just don’t think I can leave the
atmosphere immediately.”
Williams said she is planning
on playing professional basketball
and coming back to finish her
degree next December.
“Hopefully I will be playing in
a league somewhere and be back
to graduate in December.

1994. A loss to either A&M or
Baylor in their final two
games would certainly spell
doom for Oklahoma’s tourna
ment dreams.
Oklahoma has a good
chance though, according to
Texas senior guard Brandon
Mouton.
“1 talked to a couple of them
after (Texas’ 68-63 win on Feb.
21), and just told them to win
games and good luck,” Mouton
said. “They are definitely capa
ble of winning the games to put
them into the tournament.”
The bubble might be an
undesirable and unfamiliar
place for Oklahoma. The
Aggies, however, are still
waiting for their chance at life
on near the top.
“The kids are trying,”
Watkins said. “1 may get
upset; but I look into their
face, and I know they're try
ing. If the group were to quit
on you or lay down then that
would be very disappointing.
This group hasn't done that.
They’ve come out every game
knowing the situation is what
it is and try to win a ball game.
We just can’t put 40 minutes
together.”

Thompson to
leave A&M
COLLEGE STATION,
Texas (AP) — Texas A&M
linebacker Ta Ta Thompson,
who started one game last sea
son as a true freshman, has with
drawn from school for personal
reasons, coach Dennis
Franchione said Tuesday.
“Ta Ta is a fine young man
who did everything we asked of
him,’’ Franchione said. “It’s
unfortunate that he feels he needs
to give up his opportunities at
Texas A&M to deal with some
things going on in his life.’’
Thompson, from Garland,
had 20 solo tackles and 10
assists, two tackles for losses and
one quarterback sack.
Franchione said linebacker
Lamar Mitchell, defensive line
man Tate Pittman- and wide
receiver Anthony Wright also
left school for personal reasons.
Offensive linemen Brandon
Flanagan and Quinten Coleman
and linebacker Kelvin Flood
were academic casualties.
Softball

who retired the last nine Bobcat
batters in a row, including three
strikeouts. The A&M bats went
silent in those three innings
though, collecting only three sin
gles in 12 at-bats.
Evans said six runs should
have put the Aggies in the win
column, but mistakes on the field
cost A&M the game.
“Besides Christina Smith, we
struggled on the mound,” Evans
said. “They took full advantage
of that and never quit.”
The Aggies travel to
Arlington Wednesday to face the
University of Texas-Arlington in
a double header slated for 5 p.m.
and 7 p.m.
SPORTS IN BRIEF
Rangers sign
three pitchers
SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP) -
The Texas Rangers signed
three of their potential start
ing pitchers to one-year con
tracts Tuesday.
Pitchers Joaquin Benoit,
Colby Lewis and Ricardo
Rodriguez are among a
group of at least seven pitch
ers in contention for three
remaining spots in the rota
tion behind Kenny Rogers
and Chan Ho Park.
The team also signed
infielder Jason Bourgeois to
a one-year contract.
The only players on the 40-
man roster still unsigned were
shortstop Michael Young and
likely starting center fielder
Laynce Nix.
Bryant attorneys
may question
alleged victim
EAGLE, Colo. (AP) - The
judge in Kobe Bryant's sexual
assault case has reconsid
ered whether he’ll allow
defense attorneys to ask the
alleged victim detailed ques
tions about her sexual past.
The woman had been
scheduled to testify Tuesday.
Late Monday, judge Terry
Ruckriegle postponed that
appearance until a March 24-
25 hearing so he could
reconsider the prosecution’s
request that he limit the
questions defense attorneys
could ask.
Ruckriegle initially ruled
Monday that prosecutors
made that request too late.
He agreed to review his rul
ing after a closed-door meet
ing with attorneys, state
courts spokeswoman Karen
Salaz said.
Without the woman’s testi
mony, Tuesday's hearing was
expected to focus on whether
Bryant was illegally questioned
by investigators on July 1 after
the 19-year-old accused him of
raping her at a Vail-area resort.
Bryant, 25, has said the
two had consensual sex.
Bryant’s attorneys said he
has a right to confront his
accuser.
Cincinnati Reds
owner dies
CINCINNATI (AP) - Marge
Schott, the tough-talking,
chain-smoking owner of the
Cincinnati Reds who won a
World Series and was repeat
edly suspended for offensive
remarks, died Tuesday. She
was 75.
Schott was hospitalized
about three weeks ago for
breathing difficulties and
repeatedly needed treatment
for lung problems in recent
years. Christ Hospital spokes
woman Dona Buckler did not
release a cause of death.
Schott kept a low profile
after she sold controlling inter
est in the club in October
1999. She remained a limited
partner in the team’s owner
ship group, but had no say in
the team’s operations.
She loved to mingle with
fans and gave generously to
charitable causes, but got in
trouble because she couldn’t
watch her words. She report
edly used racial slurs to
describe her players and
repeatedly praised Hitler
despite admonitions to keep
quiet.
The Reds plan to honor
Schott in some fashion on
opening day.
