Tim Scott finished seventh in the discus with a throw of 172-8 feet, narrowly missing being named an all-America. Only the top six competitors in each event receive the honor. Texas A&M’s stellar hurdler Shifton Baker had an off day as he failed to qualify in either of the two hurdles events, the 120-yard highs and the 440-yard intermediates. Baker, who ran a 50.3 in the intermediates last year and was — the SWC champ this year, ran a comparatively slow time, clocking a 52.0.
