Wichita scouting report . . .
Defense strength
of young ’Shockers
By MIKE STEPHENS
Battalion Sports Writer
The Shockers of Wichita State
University will be opening their
season Saturday night with the
Aggies at 7:30 p.m. on Kyle Field
with the confident promises of
head coach Ben Wilson pushing
them.
Attempting to improve their
2-8 record of la^t year, Wilson
will be fielding a youthful but op
timistic team.
“We have plenty of room to
improve and we’re going to do
it,” Wilson says.
Wilson and his staff have been
pleased with workouts so far,
although there is a need for im
provement, they believe.
“We will have to improve and
continue to work hard if we in
tend to beat Texas A&M,” he
says.
But Wilson says that we’re
“still 50 percent improved over a
year ago at this time.”
Wilson believes the defense is
the strong point of the team. Led
by the experienced linebackers,
the defense will probably allow
even fewer points this year.
Potential All-American John
Hoheisel, 6-4, 215-pounds, will be
the team captain of the “Gold
Fever Gang.” He is the middle
linebacker, with 5-10, 200-pound
Steve Moore and 5-11, 197-pound
Historic opener
for Kyle field
An historic occasion is on tap
for storied Kyle Field Saturday
night when the Aggies open 1970
football play against Wichita
State at 7:30 p.m.
It will be the first game ever
played on artificial turf at Kyle
Field. Too, it will be the first
collegiate football meeting ever
between the Aggies and Wichita
State.
It isn’t a sellout. Tickets will
be available on game day. Kyle
Field seats 48,000 and it now is
one of the most beautiful foot
ball plants in the nation. The
AstroTurf football field is sur
rounded by a new tartan track,
making the stadium a very col
orful football setting.
The famed Texas Aggie band
will be on hand to add more color
and entertainment.
Also, 17 local and area bands
will be guests of Texas A&M.
They won’t march or play but
will be in uniform.
The list includes S.F. Austin
High of Bryan, A&M Consoli
dated of College Station, Allen
Academy of Bryan, Jones Junior
High of Bryan, Burton High,
Caldwell High, El Campo High,
LaGrange High, Lexington High,
Liberty High, Madisonville High,
Marlin High, Rogers High,
Smithville High, Spring High,
Tomball High and Willis High.
Glenn Kostal controlling the
sides.
Leading the offense will be the
speedy Randy Jackson as fullback
and returning quarterback Bob
Renner.
Jackson averaged six yards a
carry last season. The 6-0, 205-
pounder sprinted for three touch
downs and 240 yards in the spring
game for the Shockers.
Renner totaled 768 yards in of
fense as a sophomore last year.
He also averaged 40 yards a punt
last season.
Others to watch will be Gene
Robinson, a 9.5 sprinter, at split
end. Also, Kim Cocklin at center
and Marvin Brown, tailback, both
sophomores.
With 22 returning lettermen, in
cluding 10 starters, Wilson does
have reasons for hoping for an
improved year. With the newly
invented “poly-turf” on their
home field and the winning atti
tude of the players instilled by
Wilson, Wichita State could be the
most improved team in the Mis
souri Valley Conference this sea
son.
The Shockers are about to dis
play their improvement against
the Aggies on Kyle Field Satur
day night.
Stallings displeased
with Aggie work
Coach Gene Stallings was high
ly displeased with the way his
Texas Aggies worked in Tues
day’s practice.
“I know we didn’t get any bet
ter. We didn’t improve one ounce
today and that’s all I’m going to
say about it.”
Stallings probably was think
ing ahead* to Saturday night’s
opening battle with Wichita State
at Kyle Field. The Shockers pre
sent a big, veteran defensive unit,
one that averages 218 among the
front four and 212 among the
three linebackers.
The Aggies drilled on various
phases of play Tuesday in hot
humid weather. “Oh, it was hot,”
Stallings said, “but it wasn’t that
hot.”
A crowd of around 35,000 is an
ticipated for Saturday’s 7:30 p.m.
kickoff in the storied old A&M
stadium that has a brand new
look now with an AstroTurf foot
ball field surrounded by a tartan
track.
New injury rule
proposed by TMA
AUSTIN <A>) _ A rule to give
injured football players more
protection has been proposed by
a committee of the Texas medi
cal Association.
It would require any player
who “receives an injury to the
head, neck, trunk, or lower ex
tremities” to be carried off the
field on a litter.
