Page 12 THE BATTALION FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1980 High school action contim United Press International It takes a heap of running to make a six-man football team a Texas schoolboy champion, and that’s just what folks can expect tonight as the defending champion Milford Bulldogs meet the Highland Hornets. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. in Comanche. Both teams are undefeated through 11 games this year, and Milford will risk a 24-game winning streak. “We have a well-balanced team with an outstanding attitude,’’ said Milford coach Roger Goode. “Our kids put their whole heart into the game; we re unified.” Goode said three years ago they played Cherokee for the state title but lost, 23-19. “It was the hardest-hitting football game I’ve ever seen,” he said. “We felt Cherokee outhit us and that was the reason they won the game. Our kids made up their minds then no one would ever outhit them that way again. That’s why we play so hard and tough.” The Bulldogs have won 35 of their last 36 games, with only the Cherokee loss to dampen a three-year record. Last year they defeated Cotton Center, 53-34, for the state championship. Lane Jackson, Highland coach, feels it’s his defense that has gotten the Hornets to the finals this year. “I’ll admit defense in six-man football is usually not that outstanding, but it has been this year for us,” he said. “We’ve given up only 176 points through 11 games and 47 of those came last week against Woodson, a team which started all seniors on both offense and defense. Highland, Jackson said, also has good quickness. That has helped the Hornets score 532 points this year. Pacing the Bulldogs are quarterback Lawrence Matthews, fullback Stanley Cook, who Goode says is “good at everything he does, includ ing running, receiving, blocking and tackling,” and sophomore half back Tracy Hunt, who rushed for 156 yards in last week’s semifinal. Semifinals will be played in Classes 4A and 1A while 5A, 3A and 2A will all enter quarterfinals.

The Aggies play Sam Houston State Monday at 7:30 p.m. By RICK STOLLE Battalion StafT The Texas A&M University rugby team has its final match Saturday against the Old Maroons at the polo field at 2:30 p.m. The Old Maroons is a team made up of alumni from the rugby team. It is an annual reunion and match for the rugby team that completes either the fall or spring season. “It has become a tradition with us,” said John Scheef. “A&M began a rugby team in 1969 and as soon as there were alumni, there was an Old Maroon game.” He said most of the alumni play for other rugby teams and clubs in the state but drive the hundreds of miles for the match. the fall season. They will he hit hard by graduation, said Scheef. Three first team players will gra duate in December, he said, but the young players are good and they will fill in nicely. The spring season will begin in mid-February and end in April, he added, and practice for the team will begin as soon as school resumes in January.

When the group, which has only been “off the ground” for one semes ter, meets in the spring, it will most likely have more than 175 members. “Right now we are not sure what room we will use, but that will be worked out soon,” said Club Presi dent Phil Bellmore Wednesday. “Our club offers free Olympic weights as opposed to Nautilus equipment. We offer a place to lift weights, for those who are interested in that.” While the fee to join the club is currently $10, Bellmore said there may be new dues voted on soon. The officer added the club has only been meeting regularly this semes ter, and hasn’t worked out any com petitions or records yet within the club’s ranks. “We will probably have something late in the spring for club records or competition,” he said. “This is the first semester we’ve really gotten off the ground.” With 180 current members, Bell more has every reason to be satis fied, but he’s still recruiting. “Anyone at all interested is invited to join,” he said. “I’d like to see more freshmen join with powerlifting in mind. That way we get some recog nition. We’d like to send some of our people to some powerlifting meets, where we could make a name.” One club member, Tommy Bar tosh, will be making his way to the National Powerlifting Champion ships in Pennsylvania in the spring, and another member may go if he qualifies, said Bellmore. The A&M Weightlifting Club will have its first spring meeting Jan. 20 at 8 p. m. in Room 302 of the Rudder Tower. “It doesn’t matter where they are,” said Scheef, “they come from everywhere to play.” The match ends with a party as both teams leave for a favorite bar, club or house and have a party together. “Rugby is one of the few sports where you can be competing against someone one minute and the next be partying with him,” he said.
