880 yard relay team wins again
By CLIFFORD BROYLES
Battalion Sports Editor
The Texas Aggie 880 yard re
lay team remained undefeated
Saturday despite running without
9.3 sprinter Rockie Woods who
pulled a muscle last week at the
Martin Luther King Freedom
Games at Philadelphia. The Ag
gies won in 1:23.2 at the Cali
fornia Relays at Modesto.
The Aggies who tied the world
mark in the event earlier this
season with a 1:22.1 time at the
Texas Relays and broke it with
a 1:21.7 timing at the Drake Re
lays, outclassed second place In
diana and third place Abilene
Christian College for their third
win without a loss.
The sprint relay team placed
third with a outstanding 39.9,
also without Woods, but found
the pounding feet of University
of Texas at El Paso anchorman
Clyde Goosen and UCLA anchor
man Wayne Collett too much as
the Miners whizzed to a win by a
nose. Both teams were clocked in
39.4.
The Aggies were within a
couple yards of the lead going
to the final leg but with Goosen,
a 9.2 sprinter, and Collett, who
runs the century in 9.4 to catch,
they fell to about five yards off
the pace.
Donnie Rogers, a 9.6 sprinter,
replaced Woods on the anchor
leg of the 440 relay and Scotty
Hendricks, a 21.2 220 runner, ran
in his place on the 880 yard relay.

The A&M mile relay team
scratched from that event in or
der to give the weary relay men
some rest, since they have been
running two or three relays every
week this season.
Aggie-ex Randy Matson was
voted the outstanding performer
after the world record holding
performer turned in one of his
best performances ever, and es
pecially since his college days,
winning the event in 69-8. Karl
Salb, Kansas great shot putter,
was second with a heave of 66-3.
The Aggies are slated to run
in the Meet of Champions at
Houston this weekend, but the
entries have not yet been an
nounced by Coach Charlie Thom
as. Both he and Assistant Ted
Nelson are recruiting this week.
Curtis Mills, world record hold
er in the 440 yard dash, said he
would definitely not run this
weekend but did not know what
Coach Thomas planned to do as
for entries. Curtis and brother
Marvin Mills have run on every
mile relay and 440 yard relay
team the Aggies have run this
season indoors and outdoors ex
cept one, that was the conference
meet, when the Aggies rested
the pair as they had the SWC
title sacked away before the
event.
Trainer Billy Pickard said
Tuesday that Rockie Woods’ pull
ed hamstring which he suffered
while running the 100 meters in
Philadelphia last week is coming
around okay. He said Woods
definitely would not run this week
and that it probably would be
two or three weeks but that it
would be up to the coaches when
he would run.
