The Aggies finished 0-6-1 which By Hal L. Hammons Sports Writer It was the hottest rugby in Texas. More specifically, it was the Hottest Rugby in Texas Tournament. The rugby, weather. Field and Fire ants may have been hot, but the Texas A&M teams were not. The two squads from A&M combined to go 0-6-1 on the day, and neither ad vanced to the second round of the tournament. Brian Smith of the A&M team at tributed the disappointing showing to the youth and inexperience of the squad. “(The top teams in the tourna ment) have guys that have been to gether for 10-15 years,” he said. “The team we have right now has been through a tough year. “We didn’t do as good as we could have. I’m really amazed to see the progress we’ve made. We needed the year. We needed to go through the Fire together.” He said a team that hasn’t played together for a long time can’t play with the unity and precision of some of the older teams. “You can’t make any mistakes — that’s the way the game is played.” An A&M alumni team. Old Ma roon, placed fourth in the tourna ment. Old Maroon has many team members who were on the A&M team while in school. The Houston Old Boys won, while the Dallas Reds took second. Smith said the tournament was a good way to get the team together before the regular season starts in the fall. The team’s First game next year will be Sept. 3 against Louisiana State, in conjunction with A&M’s football game against LSU the same von s id, day. He said the team usually tries loKnd organize games with teams like LSI really and Texas Tech when they meeiit nice w football. ||ind : Smith said rugby doesn’t desem fleets ii the reputation for violence and cn BThe ziness that it has with most people K "We’re not crazy," he said. “We’rtl just a bit more intense than mosi| people.” “The First time people see it, ab'l of peole think we’ve got tobeniffif But it’s a gentlemen’s sport. “I’ve heard that soccer' s a ^ tlemen’s game played by gentletner IP ^ football is a hooligan's sport played Mr by hooligans, and rugby is a hooli B gan’s sport played by gentlemen. I Ballesteros nips Price for British Open crown “If you do something wrong j there’s a chance of getting hun|i Most major injuries occur becai® you do something wrong.” solve it JSucl LYTHAM, England (AP) — Seve Ballesteros overwhelmed Nick Price with a 6-under-par 65 and scored his third British Open triumph Monday at the course where he began his rise to golFmg greatness. Playing with Price and Nick Faldo, Ballesteros came from two strokes back to win at the Royal Lytham and St. Annes Golf Club with the lowest round of the tournament. i'JFsf'- 1NYADS. BUT REAL HEAVYWEIGHTS WHEN RESULTS REALLY COUNT. Ballesteros caught Price with a birdie-eagle-birdie burst at Nos. 6, 7 and 8 — while Price went birdie-ea- gle-par only to lose a stroke — and he nailed it down with a par-saving chip on the Final hole. The margin of victory will be re corded as two strokes. But that was only because Price was trying so des perately to force a playoff that he 3- putted the 18th after going for bir die. He ran a long putt well by the cup on the final hole, then missed it com ing back. It didn’t matter. No one else was in the title hunt over the last nine holes of the rain-delayed final round. Ballesteros, a 31-year-old from Spain, won this major title with a 273 total, 11-under-par, and added it to his previous British Open triumphs in 1979 and ’84 and Masters victories in 1980 and ’83. It was his third victory of the year and the 54th of his career. Price, who lists his home country as Zimbabwe but carries a British passport and lives in the United States, did nothing to disgrace him self as he battled Ballesteros head-to- head in some of the most tense golf this tournament has seen in years. He played the final 18 holes in 69 and finished at 275. Until the final hole, he never trailed by more than one stroke. Those two, Ballesteros and Price, divorced themselves from the rest of the pack at the turn and engaged in a two-man duel the rest of the way. Ballesteros broke the tie with a brilliant wedge shot that stopped three inches away from the cup on the 16th. He tapped in for birdie and had the edge he needed. Price had a chance to tie it again, but he missed from about 10 feet. It was a marked difference from the way Ballesteros played that piv otal hole in his 1979 victory. At that time, Ballesteros got it up and down from a parking lot for a birdie that sent him on to his first major title. “I didn’t find any cars in the 16th fairway this time,” he said. Ballesteros and Price halved the 17th in pars and went to the 18th with Ballesteros one in front. Pokes’ Sweeney uses skill to overcome ‘too short’ tag THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (AP) — The ghost of Eddie LeBaron haunts Kevin Sweeney and the kid knows it. The mighty mite LeBaron was the Dallas Cowboys quarterback in the expansion years of 1960 through 1963. Despite a strong arm and genuis for reading defenses, LeBaron was too short at 5-foot-7 to see over de fensive linemen or his own offensive line for that matter. Dallas suffered through seasons of0-l 1-1,4-9-1 and 5-8-1. Dallas Coach Tom Landry has never played a short quarterback since. Now, here comes Sweeney, listed at 6-foot but appearing shorter, and with all his NCAA passing records out of Fresno State. Although he had impressive mo ments in the 1987 training camp, Landry cut Sweeney because of that too-short phobia. The NFL strike of veteran players gave Sweeney a second shot. He started and won two games for the Cowboys, hitting 14 of 28 passes for 291 yards and four touchdowns. Sweeney admits he isn’t 6-foot. He calls himself 5-11V2. “I’m 5-11 V2 and that’s as tall as I’m going to get so I have to make up for it in mobility, strength, and the abil ity to read defenses,” Sweeney said. “I’ve always fought that ‘too short’ tag.” “He is a winner and a leader and he could be a starter and take you to the playoffs if he can do what we think he can,” Landry said. “He has some awful good qualities which we saw in the replacement games. “He can really throw the football. It’s a matter of whether he’s strong enough to hold up under the pun ishment you have to take as an NFL quarterback. We’re going to see what he can do this summer.” Ag sprinters fare well at track trials search nitive I “wi soineh numb problc shouk to ren Smiih I “Su By Anthony Wilson Sports Editor ■cau: Texas A&M sprinters Derrid head \ Florence and Andre Cason mav wh not he among the three lasiesi Smith humans in the country, but maL , “i n ing the top 16 is still not too tion ft shabby. Florence and Cason advance: to the semifinals of the lOO-meteri dash at the U.S. OlympicTrialsial Indianapolis Sunday along with (j Carl Lewis, Calvin Smith, Emraiul King and Harvey Glance.

The two almost finished with ! identical times in the semis. Ca | son finished seventh with a time | of 10.26 while Florence came in I eighth at 10.27. When taking into account thai ? the two recently competed in tax-i ing meets for the conference andf national championships, their performances at the Trials were outstanding, A&M Assistant Track Coach Barry Colburn said. “They performed really well. Colburn said. “You have to re-: member Andre and Derrickdida great job at the Southwest Con ference championship and the NCAA national championship Their program was geared muchi differently than Carl Lewis' or!
