• ■■ ■ Page 8 College Station, Texas Wednesday, September 22, 1971 Mike Bellar kicks less, but does much more for the team Mike Bellar By BILL HENRY Mike Bellar, senior place kick er from Sudan, Tex., is kicking less and enjoying it more since he found out what the problem was. “In my sophomore year, I used to kick between two and three hundred times a day to get ready for a game,” Bellar stated, “but I later found out that it ruined my concentration and hindered my kicking more than helped it. Now I only kick during specialty periods and in the game.” A person would then wonder what a place kicker does during the week when the rest of the team is working on offense and defense. “Coach Stallings has put me in the defensive secondary, made me captain of the scout and specialty teams,” he said. “And this keeps my mind OFF kicking during the week. Now I don’t have time to kick even if I wanted to.” Bellar does not want to be just the kicker at Texas A&M, he wants to be helpful to the team in as many ways as he can. “I want to be part of the team all week,” he said, “not just on game days. If I get to work with the whole team, like on offense or defense, I feel like I’m helping the entire program.” The most important extracur ricular activity Bellar does is run the scout team. Most players given that chore would despise it; not Bellar, he enjoys it. “It’s just another way I can help the team,” he said. After the humiliating defeat at the hands of LSU, Bellar still feels the Aggies will be a good football team and even has his mind set on the Cotton Bowl game in January. “After losing nine games last year, I was amazed at how good an attitude we had when spring training started,” explained Bel lar. “I still think our attitude is great. I think LSU was our bad game. I feel we’ll go uphill from here and I’ll be able to kickoff in the Cotton Bowl game, which is my goal for right now.” “On the kickoff, I have a pat tern to follow,” he explained, “the first and most important thing I have to do is kick the ball well. Then I have to dodge the man who is sent to knock me down. Then I proceed to flow into my zone; which luckily has been where the ball carrier has been.” Many people are under the im- THE BAIT, pression that being on the speck ty team is degrading. Bella Brigade thinks it’s an honor, “Our specialty team is total different from either the offp. sive or defensive team,” said, “I really think that is f best way for it to be. With autonomous specialty team, get both pride in the team being a part of it and it mayi the only chance we’ll ever get! play.” WE GIVE WE GIVE WE GIVE \m OP?
