Tech had a 4i record, i San Marcos, McHan, Lilly follow fathers United Press International The 1981 recruiting season looked about like most of the other ones — Texas getting a lot of good players, Oklahoma making its raid south of the Red River and a few players going back on their previous pledges. But for a couple of proud fathers, this recruiting campaign was a special one. In the midst of the hundreds of names that showed up on the recruiting lists last Wednesday were these: — Lance McHan, quarterback from Metairie, La. — Robert Lilly, defenensive end from Waco. Those two second generation players chose Wednesday to sign up with their fathers’ alma maters and perhaps follow in the footsteps of two of the top competitors to ever play in the Southwest Conference. McHan’s father quarterbacked the Arkansas Razorbacks in the 1950s and dad’s name still dots the Hogs record book. Lilly’s father was an all-American at Texas Christian and went on to become a Hall of Fame defensive tackle for the Dallas Cowboys. “I came to Arkansas because of the winning tradition,” said McHan, who had been heavily recruited by the Texas Longhorns as well as Arkansas. “I was impressed with coach (Lou) Holtz’ philosophy of football. “My parents left it to me. It was my decision. But they’re really excited about it.” In some of the final recruiting battles of the year, TCU and Texas Tech won some important victories. TCU won the signature of Dallas South Oak Cliff quarterback Anthony Gulley, who had signed conference letters of intent with both the Horned Frogs and Oklahoma State. In addition, TCU won over Nebraska to get running back Kenneth Davis of Temple. THE BATTALION Page 11 MONDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1981 Pintor holds title, takes Uziga in 15 United Press International HOUSTON — World Boxing Council bantam-weight cham pion Lupe Pintor of Mexico bat tered Jose Felix Uziga of Vene zuela in workman-like fashion Sunday afternoon to easily de fend his title for the sixth time in two years. Pintor, 25, gained a unani mous decision and was never in trouble as he took the fight to Uziga, 28, the entire 15 rounds. Pintor rocked the ninth-rated WBC challenger twice in the 11th round with straight rights. But he failed to put Uziga away. Uziga, the South American champion from Pergamino City, Venezuela, backed away from the stalking Pintor until he tired in the 11th round and was unable to stay out of his reach. Uziga suffered his second loss in 33 professional fights. He still has not been floored as an amateur or a pro. The victory was Pintor’s 41st in 46 pro fights. Pintor, of Cuajimalpa, Mex ico, won the bantam title June 3, 1979 in a 15-round decision over Carlos Zarate. But his career was marked by tragedy when his knockout punch of Welshman Johnny Owen re sulted in Owen’s death in Sep tember 1980. Pintor was unmarked, and Uziga finished the bout with a bloody nose and severe swelling in his left cheek. He slumped to his stool at the final bell as Pin tor stood triumphantly and had his gloves removed. last twoweebi States Air Fuj ion, fired atTa my 2, 111 to 2,1! 11,980, .■r, and Chip Mi sterlinishinjlli (Aggies finish third in tourney 1 sophomore Hi] n placed sedi md. isions to win iiii| :h Ags’ showing ual weight cli nough overalls VI second and fe ion Ed Conwayij 16-pound divisin m and freshm in the 134-poi of the match t| ids and beat Ji ■ in the 142'poijiilj ech 4-0 and .4 iis first title in man By RICHARD OLIVER Sports Editor I It’s not whether you win or lose, it’s how you play the game. Or so they say. But for the de ciding SWC Indoor Men’s Track hampions Texas A&M, that old ying will just have to be consola- ion enough. Friday in Fort Worth, the Ags hung their 1980 championship pennant on a hook and deter- tnined to have at ’em the next time Iround. In 1981, the laurels be longed to the University of Arkansas. I With more SWC athletes cap- jtble of winning national titles than iver before, the league’s athletes ixploded in a series of quality per- irmances at the conference’s in- loor championships, setting 11 cords. The Razorbacks racked up 96 points to Houston’s 81. The Aggies finished a surprising third with 74. Surprising in that the Aggies weren’t picked to finish in the top four by most track seers. I ’ The reason was simple — Texas A&M entered the meet decidedly eking in depth. Arkansas’ cup, wever, runneth over. new life. He’: my own son e have hasabsoli The Razorbacks, though taking only two firsts, placed consistently high in every event to silently accumulate the points needed for the title. But the Ags put on quite a show. As expected, Randy Hall and Jim my Howard provided the fire works. Both set indoor records in their respective events, the pole vault and the high jump, with Hall clearing 16-8 to break the old re cord of 16-7, set by Brett Dames of Houston in 1978. Howard jumped 7-214, not a personal best (7-4), but good enough to break the old record of 7-2, set by Tony Kastl of Arkansas in 1979. In the 440-yard dash, Aggie Leslie Kerr shook off a minor slump to take that division, and in the preliminaries, he too set an indoor SWC record of48.14, beat ing the mark set by Zeke Jefferson of Baylor last year of 48.84. Ken- won bxinal in 48.25. The story of the meet was Hous ton’s Carl Lewis, who set an in door world record in the long jump and is now the third fastest human with an incredible 6.05 showing in the 60-yard dash. Lewis, 19, who won both the NCAA indoor and outdoor long jump titles last year, leaped 27- 1014 to smash the previous world indoor mark of 27-6 owned by Mis sissippi College’s Larry Myricks.
