The A&M cycling team was in Houston on October 1 and 2, racing in the Hardy Toll Road Race. The event consisted of a criterium race and a road race. In both the stage and criterium events, the racers were divided into categories containing 100 riders each. In category 3, A&M’s Chris Fuller finished 11 th in both the road race and criterium events while teammate Mike Aston was 18th in the road race and 10th in the criterium. A&M’s Tom Ames highlighted the Aggie performances by placing third in the criterium event and 10th 1 2th Man Sports in the road race. Last weekend the team traveled to Lubbock and raced in the Texas Tech Collegiate event. The men’s team raced in A & B di visions in a road race and a time trial, while the women’s team competed in the same events in one division. Annette Wolfe was second in the road race and third in the time trial to lead the women’s team. Wolfe per formed in a field of 15. For the men, Todd Jones was third in the road race ahead of Aston who finished eighth. They competed in an 18-man field. Runners raise money in charity event Runners ranging in age from 15 to 58 competed in the third annual Chi Al pha Christian Fellowship 5K run to benefit the Pleasant Hills Children’s Home at the Texas A&M West Cam pus. Eighty-six runners competed in 10 divisions in the event that raised $350 for the charity. Luis Mena won the men’s title with a event-record clocking of 15 minutes, seven seconds over the 3.1 mile course. “This is the fastest winning time 12th Man Sports we’ve ever had,” Chi Alpha President Tim Brecheen said. “It’s over a min ute faster than last year’s winning time.” Karla Hancock won the women’s division while finishing in a time of 20 minutes, 42 seconds. The course began at the Olsen Field parking lot and continued through the Texas A&M Research Park before ending back at the Olsen Parking lot. Lacrosse team spanks Sam Houston St. A&M’s lacrosse team split two games last weekend. The club lost to a group of former club players Saturday and defeated Sam Houston on Sunday. The alumni beat the Aggies 6-5. A&M has never beaten the alumni members. After the 10-9 win over Sam Hous ton, the rookie club members took on Sam Houston’s rookies for two quar ters and came away with a 6-1 win. This weekend the club heads to asse Austin to play indoor (box) lacrosse at Tattoos Indoor Soccer arena. Twelve to 14 teams are expected to play. A&M plays twice Saturday and at least once Sunday. The top four teams go on to the semifinals. Box lacrosse uses a softer ball than outdoor lacrosse and is faster and higher scoring. Aggie sailing team struggles in regatta Texas A&M’s Sailing Club heads to New Orleans this weekend for a re gatta hosted by Tulane. The teams this weekend will be racing in 22-foot shields and flying scots, also over 20 feet. A&M’s boats are owned by the club. Last weekend Sailing Club mem bers traveled to Lake Waco for the Sailing Ensey Memorial hosfpd by Baylor. Six teams from Texas competed and Kansas University also made the trip. A&M sent a team of new sailors to gain experience. They finished fifth in the B-division and sixth in the A- division. Aggie judo team ties for title in Uvalde Boosted by three first-place fin ishes, the Aggie Judo team kicked its way to a first-place tie in the team standings at the Cactus Jack Tourna ment in Uvalde last weekend. Aggies Bobby Perez, Darrell Co leman and John Hughes collected first place in their respective divisions to lead the team to a first-place tie with the University of Texas in the 14-team competition.

Designated Hitter; Will be used in games at Oakland Don Baylor, Oakland Filled same role with Boston in 1986 World Series and Minnesota in last year’s postseason. Hit seven homers with 34 RBI as free-agent acquistion. Was 0-for-6 in playoffs. Has .292 aver age in two World Series. Danny Heep or Rick Dempsey, Dodg ers Heep, a left-handed hitter, was Mets’ DH in 1986 World Series and went 1-for- 11. Was Los Angeles most-used pinch hitter, but why? Went 4-for-44 as PH. Dempsey, a right-handed catcher, hit .251 with seven homers. Had two dou bles in five at-bats in playoffs. Oakland has Baylor, and history shows Baylor is a winner. Starting Pitching Dave Stewart, Storm Davis, Bob Welch, Oakland Stewart, a two-time 20-game winner, gave up two runs in 13 1-3 innings against Boston. Davis won career-high 16 games. Welch won career-high 17. Orel Hershiser, Tim Belcher, John Tudor, Los Angeles Hershiser closed season with record 59 scoreless innings and was iron man of the playoffs, pitching four times and winning MVP award. Belcher, a rookie, won twice against the Mets. Tudor, still not 100 percent, is left-hander with a dif ferent look. Oakland rotation is set with rest. Hershiser pitched Game 7 Wednesday night and can’t start opener. The Athlet ics get a slight edge. Relief Pitchers Dennis Eckersley, Rick Honeycutt, Gene Nelson, Greg Cadaret, Curt Young, Oakland Eckersley saved all four playoff victo ries with six shutout innings and was MVP. Led majors with 45 saves. Nelson won twice against Boston and Honeycutt won once, each with scoreless relief. Jay Howell, Jesse Orosco, Brian Hol ton, Ricky Horton, Alejandro Pena, Los Angeles Howell and Orosco, the closers, were ineffective in the playoffs — with or without pine tar. Pena did not fare much better, but Horton and Holton did well. Both teams have good middle relief but Oakland gets the edge because Eckersley is in top form. Bench Polonia, Javier, Baylor, Gallego, Oak land Balanced bench gives Oakland op tions. There’s power, speed, defense and on-base potential, depending on which player is used. Tracy Woodson, Jose Gonzalez, Mike Davis, Los Angeles Gonzalez is fine defensive outfielder. Not much offense from any of the three. Oakland gets the edge because of ver satility Manager Tony La Russa, Oakland Expects a lot from himself and his players. Seems to manage more with his mind than heart. Tom Lasorda, Los Angeles Many see his act as too Hollywood, but he motivates his players and they love him. Two different men with different ap proaches, both successful. Even.
