Coogs, Arkansas gear up for game TANK MCNAMARA THE BATTALION Page 11 TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1981 by Jeff Millar & Bill Hinds United Press International It was a well-publicized case of flu and it may have had a great deal to do with Arkansas’ three-game losing streak last month. But all the medicine has done its job, Scott Hastings’ bout with illness is over and the Razorbacks as a whole no longer seem to be suffering. “I heard a television commentator mention on the air that Hastings is finally over the flu,” the Arkansas center said last Saturday night. “So I decided to play like it.” Hastings did just that in scoring 26 points against TCU in Arkansas’ 63- 48 win Saturday evening and it sets up the prospects for what could be the game of the year in the South west Conference next weekend. Hurt Ags take third in tourney By RICHARD OLIVER Sports Editor The Texas A&M University wrest ling team, burdened by injuries, took only six team members to Long view for the LeToumeau Invitational and finished third. The injuries came at a very in opportune time, as the state cham pionships are right around the cor ner, Feb. 20-21 in Lubbock. “If we can get a healthy team,” said Aggie captain Bob Santini, “we ll be the team to beat (at the state meet). If not it’s going to be sketchy. You can’t win without your best.” That rule held true this weekend. With only 60 percent of the team present, the Aggies had to rely on a great performance from those wrest lers at the meet for a good finish overall — and they got it as three Aggies took firsts in the event. Texas A&M finishers: 118-pound — Ed Conway, Texas A&M, beat Terrill, Richmond Col lege for 2nd. 134-pound — Greg Lewallen, Texas A&M, beat Bertsh, Southwest Texas State, for 1st. 142-pound — John Sweatt, Texas A&M, beat Stahl, LeToumeau, 22- 8, for 1st. 160-pound — Damian Cook, Texas A&M, beat Parks, LeTour- neau, 10-0, for 3rd. 190-pound — Bob Santini, Texas A&M, beat Bernstein, Richmond, 11-5, for 1st. The third place finish for Texas A&M was the worst the team has done this semester. In two previous meets this spring, the Ags placed first and secpnd. The overall spring and fall dual meet record for the Aggies is 6-3-1. )apper Club ,fc tonors Green United Press International PinSBURGH — All-America lefensive lineman Hugh Green of le University of Pittsburgh was pre- iented with the Dapper Dan Club’s Ian of the Year award Sunday night t a banquet attended by 2,200 spec- ators and sports stars at the Hilton lotel.
