Aggies raise ‘Glass’
to toast Texas Relays
By CINDY GAY
Sports Writer
The Texas Relays were a first
Glass act. »
Texas A&M’s Ethan Glass took to
the high jump like the cow that
soared over the moon, upsetting Ar
kansas’ Bill Jasinki to reach a win
ning height of 7 feet, 5 inches. Glass
shattered his personal best of 7-3,
3/4, and came mighty close to clear
ing the high jump bar with three fol
low-up attempts at 7-6, 3/4.
“I think he will shortly jump even
higher than that,” said A&M Assis
tant Track Coach Ted Nelson, add
ing that Glass will be returning to
Memorial Stadium for the NCAA
Championships .
The Texas A&M track team sec
onded that blue ribbon performance
with Arturo Barrios’ win in the
5,000-meters. His time of 13 min
utes, 46 seconds nailed him a s|>ot in
the Texas A&M record book and in
the NCAAs, 11 seconds faster than
the qualifying time for the cham
pionships.
“He won it pretty handily,” said
A&M Head Track Coach Charlie
Thomas, pleased that once again an
Aggie had forced an Arkansas tra-
ckster to settle for second.
Rod Richardson’s third place fin
ish in the invitational 100-meters
verified that he can fulfill track fans’
great expectations. Richardson
clocked a 10.16 run behind the
10.06 time of Missouri’s Chidi Itnoh
and 10.09 of Houston’s Kirk Bap
tiste. Baptiste had won a silver medal
at the 1984 Summer Olympics be
hind Carl Lewis.
“Anytime you get third in the In
vitational at the Texas Relays, you’re
l imning pretty good," Nelsons
adding mat this was Richards
first 100-meters of the season
Richardson sprained hisanik
minutes before the race when
jumped over a rail fence.
“I kind of felt like that was
reason he didn’t accelerate aiih
nish,” Thomas said.
But these weren’t the only ill
to find a place in the finalsol
track meet. Francisco
landed 5th in the triple jump«
distance of 51-8, 3/4 feet. Rich
exander ran the 110-meter I
in 14.25 seconds to finish eigl
the 10,000-meters, Huev In
turned in a time of 38 minutes.
Texas A&M had to scratch its I
and 800-meter relay teams beta
Tony [ones injured hisfootini

A&M finishes sixth
in Morris Williams
Associated Press
AUSTIN — Brian Watts set a
tournament record with an 11-un
der-par 205, but his performance
wasn’t enough to give Oklahoma
State the team title Sunday in the
Morris Williams Intercollegiate Golf
Tournament.
Instead, Trevor Dodds and Phil
lip Jonas led a charge that gave the
Lamar Cardinals a one-stroke ad
vantage over the Cowboys and made
them the only team besides Texas,
Houston and Oklahoma State ever
to have won a Williams tournament.
Dodds and Jonas each had three-
day totals of 9-under-par 207, or one
shot below the old tournament re
cord, which was held by Lindy Miller
of Oklahoma State, Braudel Chamb-
lee of Texas and Steve Russell of
Houston.
The Cardinals finished with a
team total of 20-under-par 844, 13
ahead of third-place Texas.
