When the 1987 Texas A&M base-
all season ended, Aggie third base-
lan Scott Livingstone evidently was
ot ready to stop playing ball. He
ot only was drafted by the Oakland
.thletics but also was chosen to rep-
:sent the United States in the Pan
merican Games.
With the United States capturing
le silver medal by Finishing second
ehind Cuba, Livingstone is on his
ay to the 1988 Summer Olympics
nd a long career in baseball,
The main goal (as a team) was to
ilify for the Olympics," said Liv-
itone, 22 and a senior agricultu-
economics major from Dallas,
And we did. Of course I wanted the
ild medal, but the Cubans were
pposed to win and they did. But
ley’resomuch more experienced.”
Only the top two teams at the Pan
m Games qualify for the 1988
ummer Olympics in Seoul, South
orea.
“If Cuba came in first, we had to
line in second,” Livingstone ex-
lained. “If they would have lost, we
ould have had to come in First,
hey get an automatic bid because
ley’re Cuba and they’re the num-
rone team in the world. We had
play well.
“Basically the Pan American
ames is a warmup for competition
id a chance for teams to qualify for
e Olympics. They have them the
immer before the Olympics.”
The team is chosen by the Pan
merican baseball coaches.
“They usually know from the
playi
base.

coaches around the country who the
good players are," Livingstone said
of his selection. "There are regional
directors who call coaches around
the region to Find the good players.
They pool all of those together and
pick from there. Luckily my name
was one of the ones to come up.
“When they told me I was picked,
I was tickled to death. I wanted to

During the Pan American Games
Livingstone hit for the cycle against
Canada and knocked in Five of the
seven runs scored by the U.S. squad
to boost the team into the gold
medal game against Cuba. He batted
.345 during the summer and tied the
team lead in doubles with 11.
For Livingstone, playing baseball
also meant leaving the Dallas home
front.
“We travelled the East Coast
mainly,” Livingstone said. “We
stayed in North Carolina, Indiana,

Tennessee and Florida one time. It
wasn’t a bad trip.
“The only time we went out of the
country was to Cuba. That was an
experience in itself. It was very
scary. That’s where I lost all of my
weight. I got food poisoning and I
spent my birthday in the hospital. It
was a good birthday.”
Livingstone was right at home
ving his usual position — third
aase.
"We played a 36-game schedule,”
he explained. "I played third base on
about 30 of them."
He continued his baseball career
at A&M from Lake Highlands High
School where he earned All-State
honors his junior and senior vears
and All-America honors in 1984.
But that was not enough for Liv
ingstone. He came to Texas A&M
where he was named All-Southwest
Conference his freshman year by
leading the SWC with eight home
runs, setting a school record. He
stayed on the “honor roll” by being
selected to the NCAA South II Re
gional All-Tournament team in
1986.

material?
Livingstone was drafted on three
occasions — 1984 by the Toronto
Blue Jays, 1986 by the New York
Yankees and 1987 by the Oakland
Athletics. After playing three years
of Aggie baseball, he weighed the
advantages and disadvantages. The
disadvantages were heavier.
“I have completed discussions
with Oakland and have decided to
return to Texas A&M for my senior

year,” Livingstone said. “Oakland
has been very fair to me and I appre
ciate their professional manner and
interest.
“I respect their final position, but
believe their proposal is not suffi
cient for me to forego the educatio
nal and athletic opportunities avail
able to me at A&M.”
Aggies should be relieved that
Livingstone is returning for his se
nior year. A&M Coach Mark John
son is.
"Obviously, we are extremely
pleased and excited about Scott's re
turn for his senior year," Johnson
said, "We will no doubt be a better
team with Scott Livingstone.
"The experiences he has already
achieved not only at Texas A&Mf,
but in playing in the tough Alaskan
League, and then representing our
country on the USA team this sum
mer, certainly have enhanced his
overall development, not only as a
baseball player, but as a student and
E erson as well. We’re pleased he’s
ere.”
Livingstone is not the only Aggie
in his family. His older brother, Bill,
and his sister-in-law are A&M grad
uates. Bill tried out for the A&M
baseball team but was not as lucky as
Scott.
“It has been my goal for many
years to play professional baseball,”
Livingstone said, “and I plan to be
gin that career in June of 1988. For
the 1987-88 school year, I am com
mitted to Coach Johnson, my team
mates and Texas A&M, and will
work hard to contribute to the base
ball program and the University.”

A&M drops
conference
opener in 5
The Texas A&M Lady Aggies
lost a heartbreaker to Rice on the
road 12-15, 15-12, 15-13, 7-15,
15-13; opening the conference
season on a bittersweet note.
A&M fell to 5-12 on the season
and 0-1 in conference. The Owls
are now 14-2 and 1-0.
Lady Aggie Coach A1 Givens
said, “This one was a tough one to
lose. If each game had only gone
to 13 points, we would have won
in four (games).
“I was pleased with parts of the
match,” he said. “We came back
strong in the fourth game, but we
let it slip away in the fifth.
“Rice is a good team. They had
their whole starting lineup re
turning, and even as good as we
were last year, we lost at home in
five.
“We’ll rebound from this loss."
Vivian Viera led the attack for
A&M. She had a career-high 27
kills (also a season-high for the
team) out of 49 attempts.
