Shortstop Liz Mizera went 5-for-6
including a scoreboard-crashing
home run to lead the Texas A&M
softball team to a sweep against the
University of Texas-Arlington in a
doubleheader Tuesday at the Lady
Aggie Softball Field.
After a scoreless six and a half in
nings in the First game, Mizera led
off the bottom of the sixth with a rip
per that sailed high over left field
fence, ricocheting off the new
scoreboard for the only score of the
game.

blood in the second game when
Lady Mav catcher Delana Lightfoot
hit a double off of Carpenter. An

help the Lady Aggies stymie a late
comeback effort by the Lady Maver
icks to gain a 4-1 victory to complete
the sweep.
The Lady Aggies improve to 33-
12 on'the season and 11-3 at home,
while the Lady Mavs drop to 30-22.
A&M got three runs in the third
off a walk, Barbara Kajs’ and Mize-
ra’s singles and a UTA error to slow
down the Lady Mavs.
The Lady Ags had eight runs in
the game but had the same problem
of putting things together they had
in the first.
A&M hit well in both games in
cluding seven hits in the first game,
but the Lady Aggies couldn’t man
age to bring runners home, leaving
six runners on base. Mizera, who is
hitting .321, went 3-for-3 — getting
a single in the first inning and an
other one in the fourth.
Left fielder Zina Ochoa singled
off of Lady Mav pitcher Debby Day
in the fifth with one out. Right
fielder Tory Parks followed with a
single of her own after third base-
man Rhonda Halbert struck out.
A&M had five errors in the game
and got sloppy in the last three in
nings to help fuel a Lady Mav
comeback.
But Carpenter’s pitching stopped
the Lady Mavs, especially in the top
of the sixth when she faced the bases
loaded on at least three occasions
and struck out batters twice.
“She really reached back and won
the game for us,” A&M Coach Bob
Brock said. “She must have pitched
her best pitch 10 times in a row in
the sixth inning.”
Carpenter got both wins and im
proves to 30-12 and Day drops to 26-
17.
The Lady Aggies go on the road

The Lady Mavs had five hits with
one error and, like the Lady Ags,
just couldn’t seem to put things to
gether for scores.
UTA seemed ready to avenge the
A&M victory in the first game, com-
where they will face Sam Houston
State in Huntsville today and Lous-
iana Tech Saturday.
“Both of teams are really tough
and they have the home field advan
tage,” Brock said. “We can’t afford
to make the mental mistakes we
made today against them.”

Hussein win
BOSTON (AP) — Ibrahim Hus
sein, now in a class of great Kenyan
distance runners, lifted his country’s
hope for its first Olympic gold medal
in the marathon.
He did it with a classic finishing
kick Monday, outdueling Juma
Ikangaa of Tanzania in the 92nd
Boston Marathon and winning by
one second in the race’s closest finish
ever.
The triumph was not only a per
sonal one, but one for the small Afri
can country, which in recent years
has provided much financial help
for its athletes, mainly for the track
and field competitors.
“There has been a heavy invest
ment in our runners, because we
recognized we need to do it for our
country,” Robert Ouko, secretary of
the Kenyan track and field feder
ation, said after Hussein’s dramatic

victory.
“When they win, they win for our
country. We have taken a lot of time
to convince our investors in Kenya it
is good for the country. We are
proud of our nation.”
Hussein’s triumph, the first by an
African in the Boston Marathon,
vaulted him into the all-time elite of
Kenyan distance runners, including
Kip Keino, Henry Rono, Ben Jip-
cho, Mike Boit, Naftali Temu and
Amos Biwott.
Kenyans won nine medals in the
1968 Mexico City Olympics, includ
ing golds by Keino in the 1,500 me
ters, Biwott in the 3,000-meter stee
plechase and Temu in the 10,000
meters.
Now, they are confident of doing
well again at Seoul.
Their hopes are based on last
year’s World Track and Field Cham
pionships at Rome and last month’s
World Cross-Country Champion
ships at Auckland, New Zealand.
In the Cross-Country Champion
ships, Kenyans swept the first four
places.
