kgs take second in championships
By RICK STOLLE
Battalion Staff
Going against some of the top
competition in the southwest, the
Texas A&M women’s cross coun
try team took second place in the
Track and Field Association/Un
ited States Southwest Cross
Country Championships.
The 5,000 meter race was held
at North Texas State University in
Denton. The University of Texas
won first place with 27 points,
A&M had 56 and NTSU was third
with 92.
Points are awarded in order of
the placement of the finish. The
top finisher wins one point for her
team and the second wins two.
The team with the lowest point
total wins the meet.
“We are doing much better,”
said coach Bill Nix. “I am very
happy with the progress we made
in our week off. We were able to
get in some excellent work, good
aiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiMiiiimiimiiiiiimiiiiimiiiii^
59 i f Make the World Go Away
Take a Break at
training and got to catch up on
some of our health problems.”
The Ags cancelled an appear
ance in the Arizona Invitational in
an attempt to regain some health
on the team. The Aggies have
been plagued with injuries since
before the season.
Suzanne Sheffield and Lisa
McCorstin are still recovering
from injuries occurred earlier but
ran well, the coach said, and Kim
Cloud will be out at least two more
weeks with a stress related injury.
Sheffield is recovering from an ill
ness she contracted before the
season and McCorstin, from a se
vere ankle sprain early in the
season.
Marilee Matheny paced the Ags
with a fourth place finish. Barbara
Collinsworth was next with
seventh place and Adelaide Brat-
ten finished 13th.
Nix said the team actually im
proved a great deal against one of
it’s most steady measures, the
Texas cross country team.
“They have a really excellent
team, ” Nix said. “But Marilee was
able to beat three of their people
which we had never been able to
do before.”
The Aggies next competition
will be at the Texas Invitational
meet to be held in Georgetown. In
fact, the next three meets will be
held there and Nix said the team
should be very familar with the
course before the third meet.
So says the YA...

Volleyball team places
3rd in Illinois tournament
By GAYE DENLEY
Battalion Staff
Though her team was admitted
ly sluggish in the weekend Uni
versity of Illinois Tournament,
Coach Terry Condon expects a re
sted, fired-up Aggie lineup for this
weekend’s Texas A&M volleyball
tournament.
“It . was not one of our better
tournaments, ” Condon said of her
squad’s third place finish in Cham
paign, Ill. “We re still playing a
little sluggish. I think we re a little
tired mentally.”
Mental fatigue aside, the Aggies
put together a respectable 5-2 re
cord in the Illinois tournament,
defeating Louisiana State Univer
sity in the consolation round for
third place.
Maureen Dunn and Cheryl
Johnson helped clinch Texas I
A&M’s five wins, Condon said, as
Wendy Wilson had another out
standing tournament.
The Aggies jumped to a con
tending position early in the tour
nament with three consecutive
wins, beating the University of
Missouri, 2-1, Iowa State Univer
sity, 2-0, and DePaul University,
2-0.
Host Illinois handed the Aggies
a 2-0 loss in the fourth round of
preliminary match play, but Texas
A&M rebounded to defeat Illinois
State University by a 2-0 margin.
After dropping a hard-fought
three-game match to the Univer
sity of Pittsburgh in the semi
finals, the Aggies had to settle for
third with the 2-1 victory over
LSU.
“The tournament ended on a
good note,” Condon said.” We
played better against LSU.”
Condon will give the team a
couple of days off this week to rest
up for the Texas A&M Tourna
ment Friday and Saturday in G. ;
Rollie White Coliseum.
“The girls are excited,” she
said. “I think they’ll be fired-up
for this weekend.”
