I Notre Dame defeated Texas A&M
uesday in lacrosse,
j The Fighting Irish, on their first
|ip to the Aggie Drill Field, out-
jstled the tired Aggies in the
fccond half to take a 9-4 victory.
It was, in Aggie defenseman Curt
Hines’ words, the biggest game the
Hggies have ever played and their
^^Hst against a “name” team from the
.North.
The Irish, 1979 Midwest cham
pions, are currently on a tour of the
outh. They beat the inexperienced
Igs with their bench, which was
Noticeably larger than the Aggies’,
j “They were just in better condi-
|on than we were,” tri-captain and
ch Guy Grosgebauer said. “And
hey had a lot more guys than we
td.”
Grosgebauer, a junior marketing
major from Fort Worth, also said the
Aggies’ inexperience showed. With
three years of lacrosse experience,
he is a veteran on the Aggie team.
“Most of the guys on our team are
in their first year of lacrosse,” he
said. “I started three years ago, when
I started school here.”
The lacrosse team is an extramural
club sport, which means there are no
scholarships.
“We don’t recruit anybody,”
Grosgebauer said. “We get guys who
played football and baseball in high
school and just want to stay competi
tive.”
The Ags’ next game will be April
13 against Oklahoma University in
Austin.

The University of Southern Cali
fornia will attend its second Texas
A&M baseball dedication in three
years tonight at Olsen Field.
In 1978, the Trojans played the
Aggies in the first game ever held at
Olsen Field. Tonight, the two will
play the first night game at that sta
dium, and for that matter, the first
collegiate night game ever played in
College Station.
The Ags have been practicing
under the lights, completed earlier
this year, for the past two weeks.
Coach Tom Chandler hasn’t been
more excited in all of his 22 years at
Texas A&M.
“We’re expecting the largest
crowd to ever attend a game at Olsen
Field,” Chandler said. “(Inter
varsity Christian Fellowship) Cha
plain Gil Miller will start the cere
mony.”
Also on hand, Chandler said, will
be C.E. Pat’ Olsen; Clyde Wells,
Chairman of the Board of Regents;
and Jocko Conlin, who will throw out
the first ball.
“Jocko Conlin spent 23 years in
the major leagues as an umpire,”
Chandler said. “He’s made several
All-Star game appearances, and has
umpired in a number of World
Series. He’s a member of the
Cooperstown, Ohio, Baseball Hall of
Fame.”
Conlin, like the Trojans, is making
a repeat performance. He threw out
the game ball two years ago at the
stadium’s debut. Baseball Commis
sioner Bowie Kuhn was to attend the
ceremonies, but he is caught up in
the major league player-owner con
troversy and attending meetings in
New York. Joe Cronin, former
American League president, was to
have pinch-hit for Kuhn, but is
attending the same meetings.
The Trojans are led by coach Rod
Dedeaux, the dean of collegiate
baseball coaches. Chandler said he
and Dedeaux, whose 1359 victories
is almost twice as much as any other
collegiate coach has, have been
friends ever since Chandler started
coaching at Texas A&M, and says he
has the utmost respect for the Trojan
coach.
“He’s won 25 Pac-10 Conference
championships and 10 national
championships,” Chandler said.
“The Trojans are the New York
Yankees of collegiate baseball with
their history of winning. ”
Chandler said he’ll start freshman
Rick Luecken, who because of the
upcoming University of Houston
series this weekend, will pitch only
two or three innings. Luecken will
be followed by the other two star
ters, Robert Slavens and Bobby
Taylor. Jack Miska may see action if
necessary, Chandler said.

Texas A&M women’s track team,
tuning up for the Texas Relays,
igumed in an impressive showing at
me Texas Women’s University In
vitational track meet this past
weekend in Denton.
Although no official score was kept
for the team championship, coach
Bill Nix said the Aggies would have
amassed HSVi points, which would
have been enough to win the meet.

9:57.03 eclipsed the school record
time of9:58.3 whcih she set last week
at the Texas Southern Relays.
The Aggies dominated the 3,000-
meter run, with Lorie Scott and Bar
bara Collinsworth placing second
and fifth, respectively. Scott and
Collinsworth also finished first and
third respectively in 5,000-meter
run.
Other Aggies placing high in the
meet were: Iris Tipton, who finished
second in the shot put; Jan Chesbro,
second in the high jump; Vickilee
Cobern took second in the discus and
Cath Cocke came in third in the
10,000-meter run.
Cindy Bartlett and Ellen Smith
took second and third, respectively,
in the 400-meter hurdles, Karen
Morgan finished third in the javelin
and Brown added a third in the
1,500-meter run. Versatile Sande
Lambert placed fifth in the long
jump, the high jump, and the 100-
meter hurdles.
The Aggie Ladies relay teams also
turned in strong performances. Bart
lett, Julie White, Paula Lake and
Lynne Gamble took third in the 800-
meter medley relay and placed
fourth in the 400-meter medley. The
mile relay team, consisting of Bart
lett, White, Lake and Karyn
Wooten, finished third.
“It was a real good meet, for us,”
said Nix. “Our times are starting to
come down and we are looking for
ward to the Texas Relays.”

“It’s nothing serious, just very
painful,” she said.
Wilson spent a night in the hospit
al because of a similar problem last
week.
Wilson was taken to the hospital
directly from practice last night.
Daun Wilson said her husband
will probably stay in the hospital this
time until it’s out.
“Possibly, he’ll be out in the morn
ing,” she said. “He’ll come home
right after it’s done. Or he’ll just go
back to the office.
but we plan on him missing the
season.”
Heath said Ronnie James, another
sophomore fullback injured in Satur
day’s scrimmage, will have a good
chance of playing next season. James
fractured a fibula and dislocated his
left ankle.
Heath said the injury to Wiley was
especially ironic because of his
strength.
“After a weight program like the
one they went through, you don’t
expect injuries like this to happen,”
Heath said. “We’d been really lucky
in the past. This was just a freak acci
dent.”
