Randy Hall picks Texas A&M
Not long ago, Randy Hall broke
the state record in the pole vault by
clearing 16-8. The Port Lavaca High
School senior had cleared the same
height earlier in the year, so it was
nothing new to him.
But as his effort was only four
inches off the national prep record
and would have earned him second
place in the Southwest Conference
meet, it was big news to a lot of col
lege track coaches.
Hall became one of the most
highly sought track athletes in the
state. He soon narrowed his choices
to Baylor, SMU and Texas A&M.
Yesterday, he made his choice.
Hall signed his name to a letter of
intent with the Aggies.
Texas A&M Track Coach Charles
Thomas was extremely happy in ob
taining Hall, perhaps partially due
to the fact that A&M’s premier pole
vaulter Brad Blair, is graduating.
Blair owns the SWC record in the
event with a leap of 16-9 as well as
the indoor and outdoor school rec
ords .
Hall is only one of several top
track recruits signed by Thomas.
The Aggies received sorely needed
help in the sprinting department by
signing Leslie Kerr from Snook.

Texas A&M Track Coach Charles
Thomas will take a five-man team to
Wichita, Kan. this weekend to
compete in the United States Track
and Field Federation meet.
The Aggies will send Brad Blair
and Pat Ruehle to compete in the
pole vault. Blair, who has a best this
season of 17-0, won the event at the
Federation indoor meet in March
and was this year’s Southwest Con
ference champion with a record
jump of 16-9. Ruehle, who placed
second to his teammate in the con
ference indoor and outdoor meets,
has a best of 16-0.
Conference champion Steve
Stewart and freshman Tim Scott will
apply their skills in the discus. Ste
wart, only a sophomore, won at the
SWC meet with a personal best of
189-1. Scott, who failed to make the
finals at the conference meet, has a
best of 186-6.
A&M’s only competitor in the
running events will be hurdler Shil
ton Baker. Baker, a senior, will
compete in both the 120-yard highs
and the 440-yard intermediates.
He won the intermediates at the
SWC meet and has a best time of
50.98 in the event, although he ran a
50.3 last year. Baker, placed second
in the highs at the SWC meet and
has a best time of 13.62 this year.
