Sanders to play two
positions for Aggies
The Texas A&M football
team held a short non-contact
practice Monday night in Kyle
Field, after which Coach Jackie
Sherrill said that fullback
Earnest Jackson’s performance
has been an eye-catcher during
the past few workouts.
“Jackson had a real good
outing Saturday,” Sherrill said.
“The offensive line is coming off
the ball better, and the defense is
tracing better.”
Sherrill said the team ran
more plays than he had planned
during Saturday’s scrimmage,
so he confined Monday’s
workout to non-contact drills
with the players wearing shorts.
Tailback Thomas Sanders,
who ran behind starting tailback
Johnny Hector during the 1981
season, has been given the
added role of second-string
fullback as well. Sherrill plans to
use him as a backup for both
Hector and Jackson next season.
The team will hold a workout
Wednesday afternoon at 3 and a
practice Thursday night at 7:3Q.
A scrimmage is planned for
Saturday at 10 a.m., with the
early start due to the fact that the
men’s track team will host the
Texas A&M Relays later in the
day. ;
Friday’s practice, originally
slated for 4 p.m., will not be
held.

Perhaps the only words
feared by an NBA coach more
ran “mini-series” is “pink slip.”
Last year, the Houston
Rockets stunned Los Angeles on
their way to the championship
series and the defeat probably
meant the beginning of the end
for Laker Coach Paul Westhead.
EThe Denver Nuggets, whose
early-season woes made their
playoff hopes all but a fairy tale,
nope to fit into this year’s
Cinderella slipper.
JH“Phoenix is a tough team for
us to play,” Denver Coach Doug
Moesaid as his team prepared to
plav host to the Suns tonight in
Game 1 of a Western
Conference mini-series. “But
we’re thrilled to be playing
them. They’re a very good team,
and they’ll be tough no matter
what.
■ “As far as I’m concerned, it
comes down to how well we hold
our own on the boards.”
Dan Issel and forwards Alex
English and Kiki Vandeweghe
each averaged more than 20
points during the season and as
a team the Nuggets averaged
126.5 points, the highest since
Philadelphia averaged 125.4
points in 1962.
“With the three guards
they’ve got (Kyle Macy, Dennis
Johnson and Walter Davis),
defense will probably be one of
our priorities,” Issel said. “It will
come down to how well we do
defensively.”
Phoenix Coach John
MacLeod thinks the series will
be intense.
“We’re playing a team that
hasn’t been in the playoffs in
three years,” he said. “They’re
going to be hungry. But we’ve
had to come out of the pack to
make it ourselves. Here you’ve
got two teams trying to prove
something.”
The second game of the series
will be played Friday night in
Phoenix. If a third game is
necessary, it is scheduled
Sunday in Denver.
In the East, New Jersey
entertains Washington tonight
in Meadowlands Arena. Atlanta
takes on Philadelphia at the
Spectrum Wednesday night in
the other series.

The Texas A&M rugby dub
has finished the season as the
Texas Collegiate Champion for
the third year in a row, and the
past weekend the Aggies came
within a point of winning the
first round of the national col
legiate finals in Las Cruces,
N.M.
Texas A&M and two other
teams battled for the western
U.S. title in a round robin tour
nament in which every team
plays all the other teams. The
University of New Mexico came
out the winner of that title after
the University of Colorado nar
rowly defeated Texas A&M IB
IS.
Also during the weekend,
Texas A&M’s “Old Maroon”
team, made up of former stu
dents, won the third division
first-place title in Austin at an
annual invitational meet. About
30 Texas teams, including sever
al women’s teams, two teams
from the United Kingdom and
one from Scotland competed in
the invitational tournament.
The first division winner was
the Scotland team, called the
Aberdeen Grammar School
Former Pupils Rugby Club, in
Texas for a two-week tour. The
Aberdeen team, founded in
1893, only consisted of former
pupils of its grammar school un
til 1972. But during that year,
membership was opened to a
general body of players.
In Houston’s Astrodome two
weeks ago, Texas A&M set a
world record as the first team to
ever plan indoor rugby game.
That first indoor game was the
first game of a “seven a side”
tournament in which teams
consist of only seven players as
opposed to the traditional 15.
