Jes drafted by the pros were on

ball history.
uh! i Bean, the Aggies’ all-time
ground gainer, was drafted
by the Atlanta Falcons in the first
round. Bean, the first player chosen
in the S.W.C., was drafted ahead of
Heisman Trophy winner Archie
Griffin.
Bean, who flew to Atlanta soon
after he was chosen, said that no con
tract agreements had yet been
reached. He also said that he and his
agent would renew negotiations with
the Falcons on Wednesday.

, Senior Sheri Sharp captured
•j^^^irth ph ace in the singles competi-
She was defeated 6-1, 6-4 in the
mifinals by Cobb, who went on to
« n first place.
The women’s track team finished
ytll out of 16 schools in the Texas
omen’s University Invitational last
■ekend in Denton.
Host school TWU finished first,
th Baylor finishing second and the
lilersity of Texas third.
' f®ly four Aggies competed in the
r g)|clay meet. Sharon Boyle pro-
pnpied the main force behind the Ag
tack, as she captured third place in
31 S-f.e| 1500-meter, two-mile and
a Maria
:r East
with Mark Stewart-510, Ronnie
Pearce-502, Marshall Blalock-484,
Charles Hanger-467, Marvin
Wade-455, Dale Hess-441, and
Raymond Clipper-401 respectively.
The men’s team finished second in
overall points.
A&M’s women’s team led with a
total of 1,808 points, SWTSU fol
lowed with 1,775 points, TCU came
in third with 1,730 points, and UT
placed fourth in women's team com
petition with a total of 1,520 points.
In coed competition A&M came in
second place with 1,720 points. The
coed teams are composed of two
females and two males per team. The
Aggie team consists of Dale Pless,
Ronnie Pearce, Sharon Voggers, and
Leslie Turner. UT headed the teams
with a total of 1,749 points in coed
rounds, TCU followed A&M in third
position with 1,694 points, SWTSU
took the fourth seat with 1,683
points, and LSU finished last with
1,649 points.
Bean said he knew the day before
the draft that either Atlanta or Cin
cinnati wanted to draft him in the
first round. Bean added, “Atlanta
told me they were going to draft
either Archie Griffin or me. I was
very excited at the selection and look
forward to playing ball with the Fal
cons next year.”
Glenn Bujnoch and Pat Thomas
were both selected in the second
round. Bujnoch, who was an offen
sive tackle for the Aggies, was
drafted by the Cincinnati Bengals.
Thomas was drafted as a defensive
back by the Los Angeles Rams, one
step ahead of the Dallas Cowboys
who were interested in the Plano
product as a possible second or third
round pick.
The defensive leader of the Ag
gies, Ed Simonini, was chosen by
the Baltimore Colts in the third
round. This was a surprise selection,
since many of the pro scouts felt that
Simonini was small.
Simonini led the nation’s best de
fense last year in total tackles. Simo
nini scored once on an intercepted
pass.
The sixth round choice for the Buf
falo Bills was Jackie Williams.
Williams, a defensive back, was
selected in order to shoreup the
worst pass defense in pro football last
year.
Williams was second on the team
in interceptions with four and saved
the Mississippi game by batting
away a pass in the end zone.
Garth Ten Napel was surprisingly
chosen in the seventh round by De
troit. This was a disappointment
since Ten Napel proved last year that
he was one of the finest linebackers
in the nation.
Two choices in the ninth round
were Bruce Welch and Richard Os
borne. Welch was a 255-pound of
fensive tackle who impressed Tampa
coach John McKay in last year’s Lib
erty Bowl.
Osborne was chosen by the
Philadelphia Eagles and will have to
compete for a berth with all pros
Charlie Young and Harold Car
michael.
Osborne was the Aggies’ leading
receiver last year with 13 receptions.
Many of those receptions came in
crucial third down situations when
the Aggies needed yardage.
Running back Skip Walker was
chosen by the Houston Oilers in the
eleventh round. Walker was the
third leading rusher for the Aggies
last year. He was also third in pass
receptions with six.
Carl Roaches was the final Aggie
selected. He was chosen in the 14th
round by Tampa. Roaches was cho
sen by McKay as a punt returner.
Roaches at one point in the season
lead the nation in return yardage.
He was the second leading pass re
ceiver with eight receptions and
made one of the biggest plays in
theTexas game on an end-around for
47 yards.
Coach Emory Bellard was not
surprised at the selections of his of
fensive or defensive players alike.
He said, “Our defense was great last
year, but our offense did not play
dead. These guys performed well on
offense all year. Bubba was high on
the pro’s list all year. Bujnoch pro
ved to be a great offensive tackle and
Osborne was a great blocker as well
as a receiver.”

Wortham allowed six well-spaced
hits in gaining the win. The Aggies’
only big threat was a three-hit sec
ond inning. The threat was buried
when an Aggie runner was halted at
the plate. The Aggies had one hit in
the first inning but were handcuffed
after the second.
The ‘Horns themselves were in a
tight spot until the seventh inning.
Pinch-hitter Rocky Thompson sin
gled in Doug Duncan to break the
scoreless game. In the eighth and
final inning for the the ‘Horns
Charles Proske and Mickey
Reichenback scored to give the final
tally.
In the first game on Saturday,
‘Hoot’ Gibson allowed the Sips
seven hits, but not a single run as the
Ags pulled the same trick as Texas
had on Friday.
The game was scoreless until the
sixth when back-to-back doubles by
Tony Blanchard and Winston Whid-
don accounted for the Aggies’ two
runs.
The Longhorns finished the Ags
off in the second game, allowing the
Ags two runs on five hits.
For the series the Ags had 19 hits
to the ‘Horns’ 25.
Texas now leads the SWC with a
13-2 mark, while the Ags dropped
one game back of Houston at 10-5.
Houston meets Texas this weekend
and the Aggies will face the Cougars
the following weekend.
The Houston-Aggie meeting will
determine second place, more than
likely, and thus the SWC’s second-
place representative to the NCAA
playoffs.
