il BATTALiON Tuesday, March 6, 1973 College Station, Texas Page 3 aseballers Sweep Iowa State In Four Games Host Lamar Tech In Doubleheader Today At 1 p.m. By BILL HENRY lalalion Sports Editor I Coach Tom Chandler may have pded a few new gray hairs but Uiefans on hand for A&M’s home Isories opener with Iowa State liere never bored as the Aggies Iswept the four-game series by a Itotal of five runs. Catcher Mike Frazier, having Igone hitless in 18 times at bat In the Aggies’ exhibition series lajainst the Kansas City Royals (Academy, supplied heroics with his bat by knocking in two game winning hits in the two games he played. In Friday’s second game, A&M’s Bobby Falcon and the Cyclones’ Bill Varner had a pitching duel with neither team scoring going into the bottom of the seventh and last inning. Frazier struck a two-out line drive single past the outstretched glove of the Iowa State first baseman scoring Sandy Bate from second giving the Aggies a 1-0 decision. In Saturday’s second game, with the score tied 3-3 in the 10th inning, Frazier drilled one to left field with the bases loaded and knocked in Gene Reinarz who started the inning off with a single giving A&M a 4-3 win. Today, the Aggies hope to keep their string alive hosting Lamar Tech on Kyle Field for a double- header beginning at 1 p.m. Jackie Binks, who allowed four runs and seven hits in Friday’s opening game against Iowa State, is expected to start the first game. Falcon, who struck out 12 while allowing only one hit in Friday’s second game, is expected to pitch the nightcap. Falcon, JC transfer from Pa nola, led the nation’s junior col lege pitchers last year in strike outs. The lone hit suffered against him was achieved by the first batter of the game and it was a squib hit, popping over first base. The Aggies won Friday’s first game, 6-4, and the first game Saturday, 3-2. Aggies’ Injury-Riddled Track Forces Falter In Laredo’s Border Olympic Meet By BILL HENRY [Bittalion Sports Editor Although very few points were Iscored by Texas A&M’s track mm in Laredo’s Border Olym- Ipics, coaches Charlie Thomas and lied Nelson feel things are look- ling up. The Aggies scored only 27 [points to finish sixth in the 10- [team university field which was [convincingly won by the Texas |Longhorns with 164 points. Rice |was second, 70 points behind, [with 94. SMU, Baylor and North [Texas finished ahead of A&M, [while Lamar, Houston, TCU and [lech fell behind. "We have had our share of I injuries and illness this season hot most of the kids are well and [ starting to get in shape,” Thomas said after the meet. “We’ve got some talent but getting into shape has been the toughest part. We didn’t let our kids run all out in some events, hoping not to get any re-injuries, but we’ll start this week working on our sprints and individual events. “I look for us to start winning events this week and for our in dividual performers to start im proving.” Texas won the meet with both tremendous depth and some out standing individual efforts. The Longhorns scored in every event including five first places. It was the first title for Texas at the Border since 1968 as they upended defending champion Rice. The Owls had six first place winners but couldn’t compete with Texas’ depth. An example of Texas’ depth was in the 880-yard run when it finished 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 in the event which John Powell of Rice won. A&M’s best performances were second place finishes from Scotty Jones in the 120-yard high hur dles and Ben Greathouse in the high jump. Both were beaten by Texas performers. A big disappointment for A&M in the meet was in the mile re lay. Horace Grant, Harold Davis and Willie Blackmon ran the first three legs and were in the thick of it, in fact Blackmon was lead ing after the third leg, but Doug Brodhead, ailing and suffering from the lack of work the prev ious week, couldn’t keep up with the fast pace on the final lap and fell to fifth. Another disappointment was in the shot put where Craig Carter failed to qualify for the finals as all three attempts were dis qualified for stepping out of the ring. The biggest disappointment and the one that had the crowd of 3,500 spectators abuzz in the beautiful warm winter-night was the non-qualification of SWC champion Willie Blackmon in the 880-yard run. Blackmon, using a strategy of holding back in the pack then making his move with about 220 yards to go, got boxed in the pack and couldn’t break out, thus finishing third in the preliminaries with a time too slow to qualify for the night’s finals. Texas Southern defended its title and gained its 12 th title since the meet began with 139V6 points. Howard Payne was second with 80 and Dallas Baptist fin ished third with 6414 in the small college division. The Aggies return to meet ac tion Saturday when they host a quadrangular meet with Rice, LSU and Houston in Kyle Field beginning at 2:30. A&M Point Winners Long jump — 5. Donny Rogers, 23-0.
