Carpenter
hurls Aggies
to 5-1 mark
By Anthony Wilson
Sports Writer
Julie Carpenter pitched all six of
the Texas A&M softball team’s
games this weekend in the Aggie Fall
Invitational and won Five of them,
four by shutout.
“Julie Carpenter got pressed into
service and got to pitch every inning,
throw every practice and throw ev
ery game. I’m just proud of her,”
Coach Bob Brock said. “I think Julie
did an excellent job.
“I think she gave up one good
solid hit of any consequence and that
was in the Sam Houston game in the
first inning. And we’re talking about
six games later.”
Carpenter, however, was not quite
as enthusiastic over her perfor
mance.
“For early in the season, pitching
all of the games, it was tough,” Car
penter said. “There was nothing else
I could do. I was the only pitcher. I
can’t say I did a super job.”
Official standings weren’t kept in
the tournament, which was held at
Bee Creek Park. Brock said the pur
pose of the tournament was to give
the team and younger players a
chance to play together.
“We don’t really emphasize win
ning the tournament,” Brock said.
“It’s just a real relaxed tournament.
It’s just to get the team to play as a
team, try a lot of extra things and
what have you. It’s just really kind of
for the freshmen.
“It’s been kind of anti-climatic in a
way because our freshman pitcher
(Catherine Stedman) hurt herself, so
she hasn’t been able to show what
she can do.”
On Saturday, the Lady Aggies
won their first three games of the
tournament, defeating the Ranger

Junior College first squad 14-2, Ste
phen F. Austin University 3-0 and
the Ranger second squad 11-0.
On Sunday morning, A&M faced
Southwest Texas State University.
The Lady Aggies mustered three
runs on only five hits as Carpenter
pitched her third straight shutout of
the tournament.
In the second inning, catcher
Erika Eriksson doubled home Stacey
Crainer, \yho had singled, to score
A&M’s first run. In the third inning,
right fielder Renee Blaha walked
and scored on an error by the short
stop on a ball hit by Liz Mizera.
A&M scored its last run of the game
when Mizera walked, advanced to
second base on a sacrifice by Erin
Newkirk, moved to third on Carrie
Heightley’s single and scored on a
sacrifice fly to left field by Zina
Ochoa.
A&M beat the University of Texas
at Arlington 8-0 in their second
game Sunday. Julie Smith, Height-
ley and Blaha scored in the first in
ning. That trio also scored in the sec
ond when Mizera cleared the bases
with a triple to left field. Mizera then
scored on a single by Newkirk. Cat'

LSU defeats Ags in volleyball tourney

The Texas A&M women’s vol

short end this weekend as it

The tournament consisted of
three other teams — Louisiana
State, New Mexico State and
North Carolina, with LSU captur
ing the first place trophy. NMS
finished second and North Caro
lina rolled in fourth.
Friday, LSU defeated NMS in
five games 7-15, 15-13,15-13, 7-
15, 15-4. Senior Simone DePaula
led the offense for LSU with 14
kills on 37 attempts while sopho
more Monica deMello Freitas
paced the defense with 17 digs.
Friday night, the Lady Aggies
overpowered the North Carolina
Tar Heels in four games 16-14,
17-15, 14-16, 15-7.
LSU knocked out A&M 15-13,
15-6, 16-4 in the final match of
the tournament for the first place
standing. Even though the Fight
ing Tigers came out ahead, LSU
Coach Scott Luster was not
pleased.
“I’m pleased that we won,”
Luster said. “I’m not pleased with
our overall play. We’re still kind
of in a ‘hump time’ and we’re
struggling. We’re still trying to
get together and play good ball.
But it feels good to come in and
play two out of three decent
matches. This was probably one
of the best tournaments that
we’ve gone to.”
A&M Coach A1 Givens was not
pleased either.
The Lady Aggies had a slow
start but bounced back quickly.
The offense was powered by ju
nior Cheri Steensma who re
corded 23 kills on 44 attempts for
an attack percentage of .522.
Sophomore Yvonne Van Brandt
kept the defense alive with 20
digs.
In Saturday’s competition
NMS recorded two victories by
defeating North Carolina and
“I was real disappointed in the
way we played overall,” Givens
said. “We are not playing very
well right now and what that’s a
function of I’m not real sure.
That’s something we are going to
have to determine quickly. We
take ourselves out of matches by
making service errors.
“There are some individual ef
forts out there, but there is not a
unified team e^ort. What that’s a
function of I do not know. It
could be a lot of things —just the
chemistry of the court.”

DUBLIN, Ohio (AP) — Seve Bal
lesteros of Spain won the match that
blunted a belated rally by the U.S.
team and provided Europe with its
first victory on American soil in the
Ryder Cup golf competition Sunday.
Ballesteros’ 2 and 1 decision over
American leading money winner
Curtis Strange gave the Europeans
an unbeatable lead after Sunday’s
matches at the Muirfield Village
Golf Club course.
The final score, with each match
worth one point, was Europe 15,
U.S. 13.
It marked the Europeans’ second
consecutive victory and their first in
the United States in the biennial
matches that began in 1927.
The Americans, five points be
hind going into Sunday’s final 12
singles matches, needed to win nine
points — and almost did it.
Their rally, however, ended on
the par-4 18th hole of the course
that American captain Jack Nicklaus
designed at Muirfield Village.
In the critical early going, Dan
Pohl, Larry Mize and Ben Crenshaw
each lost one-half point with a bogey
or worse on the 18th. It was enough
to turn the tide.
Pohl, in the second match of the
day, was tied with Howard Clark of
England going to the 18th. But Pohl
was short in two, dumped his third
