THE BATTALION
Sandwiched between conference
matches, the Aggie soccer team plays a
rare Tuesday night match against non
conference opponent Sam Houston State
at the Aggie Soccer Complex.
The Aggies are coming off an out
standing conference road trip that saw
them earn back-to-back shutouts against
Texas Tech and Baylor. The Aggies
have now posted three shutouts in the
past four matches they’ve played.
Aggie head coach G. Guerrieri said he
is impressed w ith his team’s ability to put
defensive clamps on opposing teams.
“We’ve simplified the defensive scheme
so our defenders don’t have to ‘check-ofYas
often as they used to,” Guerrieri said. “I think
it’s made it easier overall on our girls.”
The team hopes to use the game against
Sam Houston as a tune-up before going
A&M SOCCER

into L3ig 12 conference play this weekend
against Oklahoma and Oklahoma State.
“We need to have the ability to play
hard whether it’s a conference or a non
conference game,” Guerrieri said.
Sam Houston comes into Tuesday’s
matchup with a 1-9 record and has been
outscored 41-34 in its first 10 matches.
“We have had trouble starting games,”
said Bearkats head coach Marcia Olivei
ra. “We have an extremely young squad,
and I think it’s been a learning experi
ence for the team this season.”
Sam Houston is looking for consis
tency on a team that fields 15 returning
players and 12 true freshmen.
Sam Houston will rely heavily on
three players Tuesday night: Sophomore
Tynice Friday, junior Jo Fairclough and
freshman Yoanna Garcia will be called
upon to be the catalysts for the Bear
kats’ scoring attack.
While the game against Sam Hous
ton doesn’t have any
conference implications,
this shouldn’t stop the
Aggies from taking the
Bearkats. seriously.
In its first game of the
season, Sam Houston
pounded 23 goals on Texas
Southern in a 23-2 rout.
“We are 40 percent
done with our Big 12
road games and we are
undefeated. That is a re
ally good thing,” said
Guerrieri after his team’s
recent win against Texas
Tech. “We just need to
keep bringing the same
intensity every night.”

Roy Oswalt became the NL’s first 19-game winner,
and the Houston Astros stayed close in the wild-card
race with a 10-3 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals
Monday night.
The Astros began the day 1 1/2 games behind the Chi
cago Cubs, who lead the wild-card standings. San Fran
cisco is a half-game ahead of Houston.
Pinch-hitter Jason Lane homered and Craig Biggio
hit a two-run double to end his longest hitless streak
of the season. Carlos Beltran added a two-run triple,
Ensberg had a two-run double, and Jeff Bagwell and
Raul Chavez singled in runs to send the Astros to their
fourth win in five games.
The victory snapped St. Louis’ five-game winning
streak. The Cardinals already clinched the NL Central title
and the best record in the league — but their leadoff hitter
went down with an injury Monday night.
Speedy second baseman Tony Womack left in the sev
enth inning after being hit on the left arm by a pitch from
Oswalt. Womack writhed in pain on the ground before
coming out moments later. He was gingerly clutching his
arm at his side as he was escorted back to the dugout.
Oswalt (19-10) pitched six scoreless innings before al
lowing a couple of runs in the seventh. He gave up nine
hits, striking out six and walking one as he inched closer
to his first 20-win season.
The right-hander is 6-1 in his last eight starts.
The Astros continued to emerge from an offensive
funk after beating Milwaukee 11-7 on Sunday. Before
that, Houston scored more than two runs only once in
six games.
