The senior slugger is hitting 409 in conference play, leads in runs scored, second ia hits and RBI and is third in home nans. • Second base: This is the biggest toss-up position in the conference No one player has stood out all sea son long. The top contenders ap pear to be Lynn Van Every of g Lansas. Ben Mathews of Rice Lynn Van Every ol Ar- isas, Ben Mathews of Rice and Shawn McAfee of Baylor McAfee’s offensive numbers are better, but this choice ou ght to be made on de fensive abilities. Unfortunately. I don't have any to go on. so HI eenv- meenv-miny-moon Mathews • Shortstop: Forgirt the hitting stats, there should be no doubt that AlcM’s Ever Magallanes is the best shortstop in the SWC, bar none. He’s even picked up some clutch hits in the last couple of series This one is a sure thing. • Third base: This looked to he a two-man race between Jeff King of Arkansas and Jav Searcy of Texas. But the numbers tell me all I need to know — King is the better of the two. King should make his second appearance on the AU-SWC team, unless someone just totalh ignores the excellent offensive Mats of the leading RBI man in the conference He ranks fifth or better in five offen sive categories. • Outfield: There are lots of players to choose from. ’ hut my choices are — Mike Scanlin ol AArM. Mike Malmak of Bavlor and Ralph Kraus of Arkansas Kraus has the highest SWC hat ting average (.475). the most hits (38) and the most doubles (14). He ranks third or better in three other offensive categories Malmak gets the next spot in the outfield because he hit seven home runs to lead the SWC and ranked in the top five in five other offensive categories Tile final spot will go to Scanlin. con- finished irrage. edges out Scott (amlbaugh of Texas. Scanlin. as has been well docu mented before, has nearlv rewritten the AAM record books He holds 11 Aggie records and is approaching more • Catcher: Bubha Jackson of TCU has the numbers to hack his se lection. although his arm didn’t im press me this past weekend. Jackson is one of the top hitters in the SWC with 26 hits, including four homers • Designated bitter: Kevin Gar ner of Texas was by far the big gun of DHs in the SWC. Mv sentimental pick is Pal Janies of A&M. who in my opinion, became the most consistent hitter on the A&M team late in the season. • Pitcher: Finally, another easy one If vou want a three-man rotation, you can’t go wrong with Greg Swin dell of Texas. Dale Barrt of A&M and Steve Parker of Arkansas Swindell is Mr. AM-Everything m the pitching department. He is wideh re« ogm/ed as the best pitcher in college baseball todav. He was 6-2 in conference with a 1.61 ERA and had 86 strikeouts, which nobody in the conference even came close to. Dale Barrv. who transferred to A&M (rom Texas-EI Paso after it dropped baseball, was superb all year. His only loss of the season came at the hands of Swindell, a 3-1 decision in Austin Barrv finished SWC plav with a 6-1 record and a 2 29 FRA Parker, who finished at 6-1 with a 2.57 ERA. recorded the onlv no-hit- ter of the season against A&M.

The Ags started SWG plav by getting beaten up bv L'H Somehow John son pulled his team out of the nose dive and turned them into SWC co- champions.
