Friday, November 13, 1987/The Battalion/Page 11 Defending champ Bean in lead after 2 rounds of tournament play KAPALUA, Hawaii (AP) — De fending champion Andy Bean shot a 7-under-par 65 Thursday to take a three-stroke lead after the second round of the $600,000 Kapalua In ternational Golf Tournament. “I feel like it’s January and I’m just starting the season,” said Bean, who missed most of the year with an elbow injury. “I’m playing good again, the best I’ve played in at least two years,” said Bean, who now has completed 36 holes without a bogey and played nine of the 18 holes Thursday in 3. Bean reached the halfway point in a tournament-record 131, 13 shots under par on the Bay course at the Kapalua resort. First-round leader Sandy Lyle of Scotland, a former British Open champion and a previous winner of this title, was tied for second with Lanny Wadkins at 134, 10 under par. Each had to rally to stay in conten tion for the $150,000 first prize. Lyle, suffering from stomach problems, opened with a bogey and took a double bogey on the seventh hole before scoring four birdies in a row on the back nine. “I was feeling a little light-headed and a lot sick on the front side,” said Lyle, who finished with a 69. Wadkins also had front-side prob lems, taking a double bogey on the seocnd hole when he missed the green and three-putted. But he fired seven birdies the rest of the way, giving him 15 for two days, and wound up with a 67. It was another two strokes back to Payne Stewart, who had a 69 and was at 136, five off the pace. Ben Crenshaw, with a 66, and Ian Woosnam of Wales, with a 70, were next at 138. Jack Nicklaus shot a 70 but was nine strokes back at 143. Lady Horns may continue to dominate Southwest Conference in women’s hoop AUSTIN (AP) — Although a Fi nal Four loss prevented the Texas Lady Longhorns from defending their national women’s basketball ti tle last season, Coach Jody Conradt says her team is looking on this sea son as one to enjoy, not gain re venge. “We may not play worth a flip, but they are taking the time to enjoy each other,” Conradt said. “This is a new season, and with each new sea son there is some anticipation of what’s to come. It is, of course, im possible to predict what a certain team will do each year. Each team is different.” The Lady Longhorns, 31-2 a year ago, lost All-American Andrea Lloyd, but retained Clarissa Davis, who received the Naismith Award, which is given to the top woman’s player in the country. “You will see a new Clarissa Davis on the floor this year,” Conradt said. “The way she played in the fall, it would take a committee to guard her, and that is very exciting to me.” Davis, a 6-1 junior, averaged 18.6 points and 8 rebounds a game last year after being named the most valuable player of the Final Four during her freshman season when Texas won the national championship. Davis will be joined by three re turning starters and five seniors, in cluding backcourt duo Beverly Wil liams and Yulonda Wimbish, both three-year lettermen. “They are proven,” Conradt said. “I can’t think of a better guard combo in the nation. At times last year, they were the only two experi enced players on the court because of injuries.” Williams averaged 13.5 points a game last season. The Lady Longhorns, however, lost a top freshman prospect Wednesday in Aaron Ferris, who quit for personal reasons. “She is a quality player and indi vidual, and I am sorry she will not be a part of the program in the future,” Conradt said. Conradt did sign two backcourt prospects Wednesday in Johnna Pointer of Shallowater and Yolanda Phillips of Stephenville. PIZZA!!!
