In an almost perfect exhibition of
team running the Texas A&M cross
country garnered first place honors
over nine teams last Saturday in
Denton.
Sophomore Bruce Smith, finish
ing fourth in individual competi
tion, led the Aggie pack which
placed five runners in the top ten.
Joining Smith were Kyle Heffner
(sixth). Lane Mitchell (seventh),
Manfred Kohrs (ninth) and Charles
Cottle (tenth). Smith’s time of 30:52
over the six-mile course, enabled
him for the second time in four
meets to top the A&M field.
Not only did Coach Ted Nelson’s
squad place a quintet in the top ten,
but the time span from Smith to
Cottle was only a 27 second differ
ence.
Jacob Yemme was A&M’s sixth
man finishing 16th with freshman
Walter Jachimowicz taking 21st.
Overall, the Ags’ accumulative team
score of 31 points, found by adding
an equivalent amount of points per
numerical finish of the first five
men, was 25 marks better than sec
ond place Oklahoma. The Sooners
had defeated the Aggies in Ar
lington just a week earlier.
Taking first place in the race but
running unattached, was former
University of Houston star Leonard
Hilton. His winning time was 29:51.
“Our group did a good job,” said
Nelson about his team which was
running a six-mile course for the
first time this year.
“Our plan before the race was to
run together as a team and have
about a 5:05 mile pace,” Nelson
said. He pointed to the success of
the strategy by the team having six
men together at the four-mile mark
and four men bunched after five
miles.
“I was pleased with the individual
effort of all of our runners. They
made it a great team effort, ” Nelson
added.
“Bruce Smith did a good job of
leadership, he was the team leader
and ran some pretty good splits. He
really came on from last week,” he
said. The Aggie soph was suffering
from a slight cold last week which
hindered his performance.
“Kyle Heffner, who has been our
most consistent runner every week,
also did a good job. Mitchell really
came on like a gangbuster. He’s
made a lot of progress. ”
Continuing about individual
team members. Nelson said.

“We re looking for big things from
Manfred (Kohrs), he’s about ready
to come on for us. Cottle has been
putting in a lot of mileage, almost
120 a week. I think that in about two
weeks he’ll be ready too.”
Jacob Yemme, who finished just
one spot away from being able to
collect the medal given to the first
15 placers, has “not had a had race
yet,” said Nelson. “He’s done a solid
job, he’s been consistent every
week. ”
Jachimowicz, who has been con
ditioned to running the two-mile
high school courses, is having a
problem in adjusting to the step up
to six in college, according to Nel
son. The frosh is expected to im
prove steadily however, said the
A&M coach.
Two half milers, Tony Wheeler
and Tommy Glass, also ran in the
meet to gain some competition ex
perience and Nelson said he was
pleased with their efforts.
Experience would seem to be a
key word for the young Aggie squad
as only one senior (Cottle) is among
the ranks. However, most of the
team has had a great deal of previous
running experience, causing Nelson
to say, “We re a young team in an
unusual way. We have an advantage
with some of our freshmen because
most of them have some prior ex
perience. We re fortunate not to
have had a lot of ups and downs from
our freshmen.”
The Aggie harriers are matched
with Baylor in a dual meet this
Saturday. The course will revert
back to four miles surrounding the
Polo Field as A&M runs before the
home folk for the first time this sea
son. In addition to the men, the
A&M women will also compete
against the Bears on the same
course.

Soccer boosts
season record
The Aggie soccer team boosted its
record to 5-1-1 and enhanced its
chances for a playoff berth with a tie
against defending champs UH and a
shutout of Rice the past weekend.
Houston who had the week be
fore defeated tough challenger
Texas and earlier in the season
knocked off the Ags 6-2 in their only
loss, found themselves at a heavy
disadvantage going to the locker
room at the half of Saturday’s match
behind 2-0.
Habib Ben-Ali proved the culprit
for the Aggies, when he passed to
Arturo Wolf for the first goal, and
played havoc with the Houston
goalie on a fast-break to score the
second.
The Aggie defense, despite losing
goalie Hank Arnold and halfback
Paul Oliver with injuries, stood
strong the second half, giving a goal
to Houston with ten minutes re
maining and nearly taking the win.
Houston scored the tier at one mi
nute left, to leave the score 2-2.
With Dan Byerly taking up the
goalkeeping slack and playing a
superb game, the Ags defeated Rice
2-0 at Rice. Wolf scored again for
the Ags with a free kick in the first
half. Ben-Ali scored the second goal
in the second half to salt the game.
