'Old Maroons' keep
rugby close to heart
By MARCY BASILE
Sports Writer
Old Ags never die, they just be
come former students. Well, the
same is true with the Texas A&M
rugby team.
Its former members belong to the
“Old Maroons.”
The initial Old Maroons came
from the 1973 A&M team. Mark An
thony, a member of the team which
won the 1974 NCAA
Championship, said the Old Ma
roons attempted to play a schedule
at first, but it didn’t work out.
“We gave up the idea of playing a
schedule when only six players
showed up instead of 15,” Anthony
said.
After four dormant years, the
club reorganized with a different
purpose.
“We support A&M rugby when
we can,” Anthony said. “The Old
Maroons do things like help pay for
transportation. We’ve also pur
chased team jerseys for tournament
play.”
I he Old Maroons make there
presence known at the A&M rugby
games, too.
“Whenever we play there are
usually one or two Old Maroons on
the sidelines,” said Mark Fiinn, pub
lic relations director for the Aggie
rugby team. “They support us at the
ames — put us up, take us out to
inner — little things that mean a lot
when you’re playing.
“We try and pay them back for
their support over the years by invit
ing them down to play.“
Invite them they did.
This weekend the A&M club will
scrum against its former teammates.
“The game means a lot to us be
cause the Old Maroons keep sup-
orting the team,” Fiinn said. “We
ave a lot of pride in-our club. We’ve
won for 17 straight years collegia-
telly, and we want to win for 17»
re.”
The Old Maroon Game orip
nated in 1978. So far the Old Mi
roons have the edge on the youngr
guys, having won all but one game.
“T hey (the A&M squad) biewi
S ood thing alter they won,” k
umy saich “T he beat us in tit
Spring of ’84 and haven’t schedulei
us since then.”
Inviting the Old Maroons down 8
play ties in with the fraternity-likei
mosphere which surrounds am
rugby team.
“It’s a nice feeling to knowthatu
matter where you travel in the work
if you’ve got spikes on your bad
you’ll be taken care of,” Fiinn said.
“When we travel the other teai
takes care of us.”
The Old Maroon game will stait
at 1 p.m. Saturday. The match rf
be held on the rugby field behind
the Zachry Engineering Buildinj
parking lot.
At 21, Roberta Morin was
a crew member at Burger King.
Today at 27, she’s run three restaurants
and trained hundreds of managers.
After graduating from an eastern college,
Roberta moved out west — to San Diego
where she took a job as a crew member at
Burger King. And started moving up the
ladder of success two rungs at a time.
"A year later, I was an assistant man
ager,” says Roberta, "And the year after that, I
was in charge of 70 employees and a $1.8
million operation. It was a heavy responsibil
ity, but exhilarating, too. I feel there’s so much
more to learn. For me, it’s only the beginning.”
Roberta managed two other restaurants
before moving on to her current
position as Management Training
Specialist. And as she says, it’s only
the beginning.
At Burger King, our managers
and our training specialists are the
pride and joy of our organization.
They are men and women from all
BURGER
KING
walks of life with one thing in common. The
desire to excel, to be the best at what
they do.
So we do our best to help them. We give
them the sophisticated training they need —
along with the total support of a great busi
ness management team. We pay for their
training. We pay for their talent. We pay for
everything they need to succeed — except the
one thing that money can’t buy.
The will to win.
Burger King Corporation will be holding
interviews on campus, Friday,
September 27th. If you have the
ambition and ability, please stop by
the Placement Center to schedule
your interview prior to that date.
