HOWELL LOSES THREE
KEY PLAYERS BEFORE
AGGIES BEGIN DRILLS
By Richard Moore
The football team at North
Carolina A&T hasn't even taken
to the field yet, but the Aggies
have suffered their first three
casualties.
As A&T, already picked by
several national publications to
field one of its strongest teams,
prepared to begin drills Sept.
29, head coach Hornsby Howell
announced the loss of tackle
Warren Frye, defensive end
William Gaines and placekicker
Eric Cox.
Gaines, a native of Pitta
burgh, and Cox. from Phila
delphia, will be scholastically
ineligible, and Frye announced
he won't be returning to college.
"These three losses will defi
nitely hurt," said Howell, And
the performance of the three
players will bear him out. As a
sophomore two years ago, Frye
caught the eye of several pro
scouts. He missed last season
because of an injury. Gaines,
222-pounder, had become one
of the CIAA's best defenders in
the two years he played. As a
freshman, Cox kicked 25 of 83
extra point attempts.
In spite of the pre-season set
backs, Howell will open train
ing camp with 28 lettermen
from last year's squad that
compiled an impressive 8-1 rec
ord.
