Page 8 College Station, Texas Wednesday, May 5, 1971 THE BATTALI Longhorns complete sweep of Ags with 10-9 victory tty CLIFFORD BROYLES phomores Charlie Crenshaw and Gary Erskine pounded back- to-back doubles in the ninth in ning Tuesday afternoon to pro vide the University of Texas at Austin with an insurance run as they held on for 10-9 win over the Texas Aggies on Kyle Field. The win gives the Longhorns 12 consecutive Southwest Con ference victories and a 15-3 rec ord in league play. The Aggies close out the season with a 12-6 standard and six straight SWC losses. Erskine’s double which scored Crenshaw provided the Longhorns with a 10-8 margin in the top of the ninth and enough to hold off an Aggie surge in the home half of the inning. Leadoff walks to Billy Hodge and Jim Atterbury gave the Ags hope in the bottom of the inning and when Chris Sans missed a bunt attempt on the first pitch the ball went back to the screen and the runners ad- TAURANTS.

But Longhorn reliever John Langerhans slipped a third strike past Sans for the first out. Car- roll Lilly bounced out to first base with Hodge scoring and that left the tieing run on third with two out. Ab Jenkins, batting for only the tenth time this year took a called third strike, however, to end the game. The battle meant nothing to ward the conference title as the Longhorns clinched the champion ship with a pair of wins in the Monday doubleheader, but the contest turned out to be one of the wildest of the year with 30 players seeing action. There was 19 runs on 22 hits with 15 run ners being left on the bases. Five players were in the num ber five spot in the Aggies bat ting order during the game, with each player getting one at bat apiece. The Longhorns broke out with three runs in the first inning with Amador Tijerina singling sharp ly to right and then coming around on an error. But he didn’t score until two outs later when Langerhans singled and after Walt Rothe singled, Ci’enshaw scored both of them with the first to three doubles. A&M exploded for six runs kayoing Texas starter Donnie Horne in the second. A double er ror on Langerhans started the inning and a hit by Lilly put Ags at the corners with none out. Pitcher Charlie Jenkins was walk ed with one out and Butch Ghutz- man slashed a triple to deep right- center clearing the bases to tie the score and then R. J. Englert lined a low liner between the shortstop and third baseman to give A&M the lead. Elmendorf singled to center to advance the runner and then Hodge doubled to left center scor ing Englert with the fifth run and then Elmendorf scored on a wild pitch by reliever Nati Sala zar, who had just relieved Horne. Salazar struck out the next two to end the jam and then pitched until the end of the sixth inning allowing only two hits, one of which was a gigantic home run in the fifth by Hodge that gave A&M a 7-4 lead. Texas had scored their fourth run and a wierd turn of events prevented a fifth in the fourth inning when Tijerina hit a shot to the base of the fence in left center that scored both Pat Thompson and Salazar, who had walked. But Salazar was called out for not touching third on an appeal play. That appeal caused a delay when the Aggies threw the ball to third calling for the appeal four times before it was accept ed. The first three times the Ags appealed to the base umpire, who refused to make a move. Then on a fourth try appealed to the umpire at home plate, who gave the out sign. The official ruling on the play was that the Aggies had appeal ed to the wrong umpire and the umpire could not make a move on the appeal call. But the Longhorns got the fire started again in the top of the seventh, knocking out Jenkins, his successor Pat Jamison and banging up Charlie Kelley to take a 8-7 lead. Langerhans drove home one run with a single, Rothe another and Crenshaw with his second double knocked home the final two runs. The Aggies and Longhorns traded one run rallies in i eighth and ninth innings tj Langerhans pitching the fi three innings after moving oi| from first base. Englert drove in the Aggiei in the eighth and David Qj slapped a sacrifice fly for| Texas tally in the eighth.

TRY BATTALION CLASSIFIED Even though Rice pulled through by a half-point, there were quite a few bright moments this weekend in connection with the Southwest Conference Track and Field Championships at Kyle Field. Coach Charlie Thomas’ Aggies won five events and set two con ference and school records in the meet. Rockie Woods was high point man by virtue of winning the 120 yard high hurdles and the 100 yard dash, finishing a close second in the 220, and anchoring the first place 440 yard relay team. He set a conference record of 13.7 in the hurdles, and he tied the second best point-getting total in SWC history with 17 ^ “I wasn’t shooting for any record, just trying to win,” he said after the hurdle victory. “I figured my main competition would come from (Gordon) Hodg es, (Larry) McBryde, and (Jack) Faubion. Those guys are some thing. You can never count them out.” “This is the first time I have had a chance to run the hurdles in about a month, because we had been running in relays,” he explained. “I thought I was cap able of winning.” In the century, he had a false start, then recovered, winning over Carl Johnson of Texas in a finish so close that the judges had to call it. Both were clocked in 9.5. “It was so close,” he said. “I was real worried about scratch ing a second time and being dis qualified. It had never happened to me before, and I didn’t want it to happen to me this time.” “Because of my first scratch, I got a very bad start,” he con tinued. “I was left sitting in the blocks when the gun went off.” Another happy Aggie was jon- ior high jumper Ben Greathouse, who set new SWC and school marks with a winning jump of 6-11% Friday afternoon. He achieved the height after team mate Marvin Taylor couldn’t clear 6-10, so he had no competition when he set the mark. “Knowing I had it won didn’t make any difference,” he told reporters after the feat. “This is the highest I’ve ever jumped. My best in practice is only 6-7. I’m just not a practice jumper.” “I’ve never felt better before a meet than I did today. I didn’t miss until 6-10, then I had one miss. This is a great thrill for me because this has been my worst season. At the Drake Re lays I couldn’t get past 6-4.” “I like competition,” he con tinued, “and this is the toughest field I’ve jumped against that was my calibre, you know, not having a bunch of 7-footers. I hadn’t planned to work toward the NCAA meet, but now I might. I”1 have to think about it.” Greathouse won the high jump last year, and this was Woods’ second straight 100 yard dash championship, in addition to be ing his second time to be high point man. Curtis Mills won the 440 yard dash and ran the second leg of the sprint relay team that re peated as winners, making their third consecutive championship, and eleventh victory this year. After the relay win, he was asked about any particular goal he had. “No special time,” he said, “we wanted first place. It was a bad race for us, even though we won. Our handoffs were bad. We were in lane 8 and I couldn’t see« body. I didn’t know howweni doing.” The A&M unit was tij in 40.5. Steve Barre ran theoj ing leg, followed by Curtis, D« Rogers, and then Woods. Curtis went on to win the] yard dash, in which he holds] world record of 44.7. He defes] his traditional rival, Chip Gtsi jean of Rice. However, duriej 220, he fell to the Astroturf pain with some sort of leginjm a cramp or a msucle pull! kept him from repeating as king and anchoring themilety either of which would have a the meet. “It went dead on me rigti the turn,” he said. “Lane on a tough lane to run in the! It has such a sharp turn. Thi where it hit me.” “Coach, get me in there, need it for the team,” he! Aggie trainer Billy Picards! the mile relay. “No, I don’t think so,” Pit replied. Rice Coach Augie Erfurtli definitely happy about theci pionship, particularly in It able to capitalize on A&M'i juries to both the Mills broth without which his predictioi a 10 to 12 point Aggie vkt would have come true. “I like to win,” he said, i I hate to see Curtis Mills go like he did. He is a great« petitor. That was a close i ... a very close meet.” After the meet, the Aggiei er room was a pretty sod place, and not too many p« had anything to say. Curtiss med up everyone’s feelingsa the whole thing, when about his injured leg. “It hurts, man, it really ho: “WHERE YOU ALWAYS BUY THE BEST FOR LESS” (shIBSON’S WE HONOR BOTH CARDS— yet/r BankAmericard on /romt //// •- 1 D ISC CI U N T C E N T E R i: Prices Effective May 6, 7 & 8 Use Gibson Instant Credit SPEW YOUR MONEY 1402 Texas Ave. College Station, Texas STORE HOURS: MON. thru SAT. — 9 A.
