Page 12 THE BATTALION MONDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1980 Aggies beat Rice in meet By KATHLEEN McELROY Sports Staff The Texas A&M track team — competing in its first outdoor meet of the season — Saturday beat Rice University 83-53 on Kinkaid School’s all-weather track in Houston. Tim Scott led an incomplete Aggie team with victories in both the shot put (64-9 Vst) and the discus (191-5). The only other person in the meet to win two events was Rice sprinter Darrell Mouton, who captured the 100- and 200-meter races. Coach Charlie Thomas didn’t use sprinter Curtis Dickey and pole vaulter Randy Hall in the meet as well as some of his long jumpers, who, like Hall, are resting after com peting on a hard surface in the South west Conference Indoor Champion ships. Dickey was resting a sore ham string muscle. He also won’t com pete in the next meet for the Aggies, the Border Olympics. Instead, Dick ey will go to New York for the Na tional AAU Indoor Championship. While in New York City, he will undergo some physical tests for pro football’s New York Jets. This was the first event for Texas A&M since it won the SWC Indoor two weeks ago in Fort Worth, and Thomas obviously was satisfied with the results. “We felt everyone had a real good performance,” he said, noting many of those who did compete were still physically and emotionally drained from the SWC meet. Versatile runner Leslie Kerr only ran in two races — both relays — but the Aggies won them both. Hall, the SWC indoor pole vault champion, and Dickey were missed in their events as Rice captured the pole vaults and the sprints, but Texas A&M outplayed the Owls in the overall competition. The upcoming Border Olympics is an important meet for the Aggies be cause nine teams — including seven from the Southwest Conference — will compete in the event, which starts March 1 in Laredo. Women’s track team beats LSU By CAROL HANCOCK City Staff The Texas A&M women’s track team took first place in the Louisiana State invitational meet and qualified five more runners for the Association of Intercollegi ate Athletics for Women national meet at the same time. Five first places added to the team’s total of 79 points, which topped 12 other teams. Lori Scott, a second-year veteran of the team, ran her best in the two-mile and took first with a time of 10:36:31. Scott’s school indoor record-setting time qual ified her for the AIAW indoor meet in two weeks. Distance runner Sandra Brown brought in another first with her time of 4:55:31 in the mile. Firsts in field events came from Iris Tipton and Jan Chesbro. Tip ton’s throw of 44-8 % won the shot put and Chesbro’s jump of 5-6 captured the high jump. The distance medley relay team, Karyn Wooten, Julie White, Brown and Scott, brought in an additional 20 points with its first. A time of 11:59.58 qualified the relay team for the national meet and set a another school re cord. Sandy Lambert took second in the pentalathon with 3,697 points, bringing the number of school records broken to three. Ellen Smith was third in the 600 yard dash. The win was not unexpected but it was not what the team was concentrating on, said Coach Bill Nix. “Our basic intention was to qualify more people for the na tional meet,” he said. The women go to the Universi ty of Texas this weekend for an outdoor meet; then nine runners will go on to the AIAW national indoor meet in two weeks.

THIS WEEK’S SCHE DULE SWC TOURNAMENT By RICHARD OLIVER Staff Writer Rick Luecken pitched 4% innings of no-hit ball and Randy Woodruff knocked in two runs to lead Texas A&M University to an 8-2 victory over the Northeast Louisiana Indi ans in the nightcap of a doubleheader Saturday. The Aggies won the first game, 8-3. The highlight of the second game was provided when Woodruff, bat ting ninth in the lineup, scored Mike Hurdle from third base on a suicide squeeze. Woodruff also singled in a run in the second. Luecken, 2-0, a freshman who also pitched five innings of no-hit ball in his first college start ever against St. Mary’s Thursday, was not hit until Northeast Louisiana’s Mark Maran- gon slapped a single up the middle in the fifth inning. In the first game, sophomore right-hander Bobby Taylor, 1-0, overcame a rocky first inning to win his first game of the year, and fresh man first baseman David Flores knocked in two runs to pace the Aggie victory. The Aggies, falling behind 3-0 in the first inning, struck back with two runs in their half of the first and four runs in a big second inning. The Aggies plated two in the fifth to round out the scoring. The Indians were paced by second baseman Lee Prejean, who reached base four of the five times he batted in the doubleheader, three on walks and one on a fielder’s choice. The Aggie pitchers shut down the Indians’ bats throughout the after noon, allowing only four hits in the first game and three in the second. The second game also saw the Aggies pull off four double plays, along with a sparkling defensive effort by shortstop Bryan “Twig” Lit tle, who began two double plays with backhand stabs roving to his right.
