12th Man Scoreboard
Parents to hit the links this weekend
Parents can go a few rounds
with their sons and daughters at
the third annual golf tournament
sponsored by the Texas A&M
Recreation and Parks Club dur
ing Parents Weekend.
“The tournament is open to
anyone who wants to participate,
but our target is A&M students
and their parents,” Sandy Flint,
president of the Recreation and
Parks Club said.
The tournament will begin at
8:30 a.m. Saturday at the Texas
A&M golf course and will last
four to Five hours.
Rec.a n d Parks
The entry fee is $25 per person
and includes a user fee for the
golf course, complimentary gifts
and refreshments and catering by
Beetle’s BBQ in Bryan.
Gary Marske, chairman for the
event, said he expects the tourna
ment to be a success.
“We are shooting for 25 teams
with four players each,” he said.
There is a First-place team tro
phy and prizes for each team
member on the First-, second- and
third-place teams, he said.
Bike Classic to heat up research park
Wheels are sure to be burning
when the Texas A&M cycling
team presents the Aggieland Bi
cycle Classic Sunday for collegiate
and recreational cyclists at the
Texas A&M research park.
Aggie cyclists will roll against
teams in the South Central Con
ference, including Texas, South
west Texas State, Rice, Baylor
and Texas Tech. Races get un
derway at about 9 a.m.
Team member Chris Fuller
said there will be one -women’s
race and two men’s races divided
into “A” and “B” categories.
“ ‘A’ riders are usually
stronger and more experienced,
so the races are generally longer
than ‘B’ races,” Fuller said.
Cycling
The three recreational catego
ries are divided similarly, he said.
The treacherous 20 to 30 mile
races known as “criteriums” are-
closed coarse runs in a loop on a
flat 0.85 mile course as opposed
to “road races” which usually are
run on highways.
The cyling team has about 15
two-wheel racers who ride an av
erage of 200-250 miles per week
during the spring semester.
Registeration fee is $10 and
racers can complete entry forms
in the intramural office and a va
riety of local businesses. Bikers
also may register at the research
park 15 minutes prior to the
races.
Fish-full teams splash with UT, SWTSU
The Texas A&M water polo
team will try to sink Texas and
Southwest Texas State Saturday
and Sunday at its spring invitatio
nal tournament.
The big splash starts at 9 a.m.
Saturday when the first of two
Aggie teams faces the SWTSU
Bobcats. The second Aggie team
gears up for battle with the Long
horns at 10 a.m.
Tom Kehoe, a player and stu
dent coach, said a scholarship
team from the University of Ar
kansas at Little Rock turned
down an invitation.
The Aggies have overcome
some organizational problems in
cluding lack of a nonplaying
coach.
Kehoe and Bob Tolar, water
polo club president, took over
coaching duties when it was ap-
WaterPolo
parent the team couldn’t afford
one.
The buoyant Ags practice
about 15-20 hours a week and
Tolar said he expects positive re
sults from the tourney.
A&M finished an unexpected
third in a Florida tournament last
fall. The win came as a sunrise be
cause the majority of the team
was made up of inexperienced
“Fish” (freshmen).
“We had a lot of freshmen in
the fall, but the record doesn’t
show it,” Tolar said. We did bet
ter than we’ve done in the past
and we should be really good this
spring.”
The championship round of
the tournament starts Sunday at
8:30 a.m.
Aggie places in 6th at NCAA tourney
David Clubb placed sixth in
the high bar, his best event, at the
Division II National Collegiate
Gymnastics Championships Sat
urday at Springfield, Mass.
Clubb was the first athlete sent
to the tournament by the Texas
A&M extramural gymnastics
team. This was the First year the
United States Gymnastics Feder
ation has allowed club teams to
send athletes to the competition.
“I was really pleased,” Clubb
said. ”1 really hit my set in the
preliminaries. I really was not ex
pecting to get past prelims.”
Gymnastics
Clubb was in fourth place
going into the final round.
He was scheduled to complete
in all events, but nagging injuries
forced him to limit himself to the
bar, parallel bars and vault. Clubb
suffers from tendonitis in both el
bows and one shoulder, as well as
a torn tendon in his wrist. He said
the three events he competed in
were his best, as well as the ones
that suffered the least from his
injuries.
Aggie team heads for
world championships
By Lyneen Johnson
Reporter
A successful season and a south-
central regional win is something to
be proud of. However, the Texas
A&M racquetball team is taking on
one more challenge, perhaps the
biggest of all, the world champion
ships.
A&M is competing this weekend
for a world championship in the first
International Intercollegiate Rac
quetball Championship.
Traveling to Sacramento, Ca., for
the four-day tournament are 12
members of the A&M team, Ed Schi-
pul racquetball club president said.
Bruce Bicknell, Phil Theimer,
Curtis Acheson, and Schipul,
(seeded 1-4 respectively) will com
pete on A&M’s No. 1 men’s team,
Schipul said. The men’s No. 2 team
will consist of Danny Duffy, Pat
Sadd, Arijit Chowdhurry, and
Duane Barone.
A&M also is taking a women’s
team that will consist of Vicki Oliver,
Deana Galindo, Kelley Gamblin, and
Tori McCain, Schipul said.
“We have a really strong women’s
team going this year,” he said.
“With the broader scope (interna
tional competition) of the competi
tion, we have really been Fighting it
out for positions on the teams (No. 1
team vs. No. 2 team),” Schipul said.
“This will really benefit us in the
long run since we were all working
to be stronger.
“Although the No. 2 team does
not collect points, they are able to
knock other schools out of the point
positions. With a strong second team
we can do exceptionally well in the
tournament.”
The tournament, sponsored by
the American Amatuer Racquetball
Association, has been expanded
from a national to an international
competition this year in an effort to
create a world championship title,
the Schipul said.
“America’s first place win in the
Pan Am games was an instrumental
force in the expansion of the tourna
ment as a mode for declaring a
world champ,” he said.
“Some of the toughest competi
tion will be from Canada since they
are really strong in racquetball,” he
said.
“ . . . Cal State and Memphis State,
both superior teams, usually end up
battling it out for first.
“This year, however, will really be
a new experience.”
With a top 20 ranking and a re
gional win behind it, the A&M team
expects to get an exceptional seed at
the tournament, Schipul said. But,
game times and brackets are not
available to participants until regis
tration.
Last year there were more than 50
schools represented in the tourna
ment and this year they expect to
double the field with the offer of a
world title, he said.
“I’m really excited about the com
petition but it will be a long weekend
with games lasting through Sunday
afternoon,” Schipul said. “Although
consolation matches will be mingled
between the championship games,
consolation is not a word in an Ag
gie’s vocabulary . . . we only know
how to win.”
