Texas A&M University has a
waterski club. Texas A&M also has
a waterski team that is part of the
club.
Waterskiing is not one of Texas
A&M’s better known sports, but
many members of the club are en
thused and ambitious about their
sport.
“A lot of people don’t know the
club exists,” Team Captain Edie
Snow said. Club President John
Roffino said the club has been
around for at least ten years and
has about 50 paid members.
The club has recently reached
one of their long-range goals — to
have a club boat. The club made a
promotional arrangement with
the Mastercraft Boat Company to
pay half-price for the use of a 1981
competition ski boat for one year.
The arrangements of the dis
count are that the ski team must
take the boat to a certain number
of intercollegiate tournaments
they compete in to promote it and
after one year of use the club must
give it back to the Mastercraft
Company.
The nineteen-foot Mastercraft
competition ski boat, worth
$14,000, is cream and sparkle-
blue colored and is powered by a
351 in-board Ford motor.
“We re advertising for them,”
Snow said. Roffino said the club
has been striving to get an oppor
tunity like this one. He said
paying half price for the competi
tion boat cuts the club’s rising ex
penses and gives club members
access to a good boat whenever
they need it.
The ski club was loaned the
money for the boat by the father of
a team member. The club hopes to
raise enough money to get another
boat under the same promotional
conditions before they have to re
turn this one next spring.
To raise the money the club is
planning an intramural waterski
tournament, a raffle and other
fund-raising activities for next
year Roffino said.
Roffino said the club’s objec
tives are to promote waterskiing as
a recreational sport and as a com
petitive sport. Anyone in the club
can try out for the team.
Snow said as team captain she is
always looking for competitors.
“We know there are a lot of good
skiers in the woodwork,” she said
and that the team especially needs
more women to compete. “We
will be scouting for prospects at

CHICAGO — Opposing brothers have rarely been able to hit home
runs in the same game, but the Cruz brothers accomplished that feat at
Wrigley Field on a wind-swept Monday afternoon.
Jose and Heity Cruz hit home runs in the same game for the first
time in their major league careers. Fortunately for the Houston
Astros, Jose’s was a three-run shot in the first inning that helped lift the
Astros to a 5-4 victory over the Cubs.
Unfortunately for Chicago, Heity’s home run was a solo shot in the
sixth inning.
Jose conceded his brother’s home run was hit harder.
“But mine was the bigger hit because there were men on base, ” said
Jose, whose home run was his fifth of the season.
“It’s the first time we’ve both hit them in the majors, although we’ve
done it in winter ball,” Jose said.
Heity said his brother smiled at him when he rounded third base in
the first inning. But he added he wasn’t happy about the way things
turned out for the Cubs.
“I might have hit mine harder, but he got the gamewinning hit, it
made the difference,” Heity said.
For a time, it appeared Jose’s home run would be enough for
Houston, which won its seventh ganme in its last eight outings. But the
Cubs, who lost 11 of 12 to the Astros last year and dropped to 3-16
overall this year, staged a three-run ninth inning rally. And Chicago
had runners on first and third with one out.
However, reliever Frank LaCorte got pinch hitter Jerry Morales to
strike out. Bill Buckner followed with an RBI single but Steve Hender
son struck out for the fourth time. Reliever Joe Sambito, who notched
his first save, got Leon Durham to end the game.
“That’s been our style, winning the close games,” Sambito said.
“We have the strongest bullpen in the National League.”
Joaquin Andujar, 1-1, pitched the first five and one-third innings to
gain the victory. He was forced to leave the game after suffering a knee
strain.
“Our pitching has kept us going,” said Houston manager Bill Vir-
don. “It’s just been on this road trip that we’ve started to hit.
Chicago manager Joey Amalfitano said Chicago starter Mike Kru-
kow, 1-2, who yielded all five runs, pitched another strong game. In
addition, he was optimistic about the way his team charged back in the
ninth inning.
“Steve Dillard (who hit a two-run double that Amalfitano had
claimed was a home run) gave us a lift and we had the guys up there in
the ninth who had been hitting well. We just didn’t get it done today. ’

Ag waterski team benefits
from competition boat
the intramural tournament," she
said.
The Texas A&M waterski team
competes against other universi
ties in the South Central Region.
There are usually four tourna
ments every semester mainly in
Texas, Lousiana and Oklahoma.
Between 1975 and 1977, Roffino
said, the team won first place in
almost every tournament it en
tered.
He said that until recently there
were so many skiing trophies
stored away collecting dust the
club decided to sell them to help
pay for the boat.
There are three categories in
competition waterskiing; trick
skiing, slalom and jumps. In the
intercollegiate tournaments there
are two classes of skiers. The A
class makes all points for the team
and the B class competes to gain
experience.
The next goal the club hopes to
accomplish is to have its own prac
tice course.
