The men dismantled famed Coach Bobby Knight’s squad
77-66 at the Ferrell Center last night. Aaron Bruce hit 6 of 7 three
pointers to seal the victory. Senior Tommy Swanson ended his career at
home with an outstanding performance as well. (God bless you Tommy for
having the courage to stay with the program when you had the opportunity
to transfer two years ago). The Bears now have a win streak working and in
watching the Aggies beat #1 seed Texas last night you realize what
possibilities exist for the men in the Big XII Tournament. Baylor played
A&M totally heads up in their two matches. As our own Coach Teaff

The Ladies were nonetheless magnificent as well in
dispatching the Texas Longhorns 72 to 64. Sophia Young had 28 points and
is now only 3 points shy of the Big XII all-time scoring record. The
Ladies begin the defense of their Big XII Tournament title next week in
Dallas.

judicial position. Judge Menard actually holds this position presently as
an appointee of Governor Rick Perry. Judge Menard is also the first female
state district judge in the 155-year history of McLennan County.
