12th Man Scoreboard
I Aggies split dual match with Mustangs
The Aggie Polo Club opened the
Iseason last Sunday with a dual match
[against Southern Methodist. The
[men’s team lost to the Mustangs 11-7
[while the Lady Aggies won their
[match by the same score, club
[spokesman Wesley Sinor said.
“Both of our teams played well for
[the first game of the season,” Sinor
Isaid.
The men’s team wasted several
[scoring opportunities in their loss, he
[said. Vicinte Borrero had an out-
[standing game for A&M in the loss.
“The men played well. SMU was
[third in the nation last year and we
should have won,” Sinor said. “We
missed some penalty shots and seve
ral other shots when we had the ball
right in front of the goal.”
Sinor praised the Aggie women’s
team which won in spite of constant
substitutions. Kristin Matiack was a
standout performer for the Aggie
women.
“We rotated a lot of players in and
out of the lineup,” Sinor said. “W e
wanted to see how everyone would
play.”
Lady Aggies pluck Eagles in 2-1 victory
Bolstered by a strong defensive
Iperformance, the Texas A&M wom
en’s soccer team de-feathered the the
Eagles of the University of North
[Texas 2-1 last weekend.
A&M shut down the North Texas
[offense behind the excellent play of
moalie Jeana ChicoSky who played a
major part in shutting out the Eagles
jforthe first 45 minutes of the game,
according to Lindsey Craig, A&M
[soccer club president.
The Lady Aggies improved their
record to 4-1-1. A&M’s previous
wins came over Rice (8-2), Trinity
Women's Soccer
(3-0) and the College of the South
west (4-1).
The Aggies were led offensively
by Chanel Mullican, Kelly Benner
and Elena Olive. Benner and Olive
scored for A&M.
A&M has this weekend off before
resuming play at the Austin Women’s
Tournament November 5 and 6. The
Lady Aggies return home the follow
ing weekend to host the Texas A&M
Varsity Tournament.
Lacrosse stumbles during tournament
The Lacrosse Club swung south-
[west to Austin two weeks ago for an
[indoor tournament. Saturday, they
beat Southwestern University 14-5
[and lost to Austin Gold 21-12.
The club had one more shot against
[another city team Sunday, Austin
[Blue, but lost 10-5. Pat Braun and
Craig Bemas had the hot hands offen
sively for A&M.
This weekend, A&M invites at
least 8 teams from in and around the
state for the eighth annual A&M Fall
Lacrosse Classic at Simpson Drill
Field.
As many as three matches will be
held at one time beginning Saturday
at 9 a.m. and ending at 1 p.m. Sun
day, action begins at 11 a.m. and fin
ishes around 3 p.m.
Zuteck third at windsurfing regionals
Last week, Texas A&M’s Sailing
Club sent member Mark Zuteck to
[A&M-Galveston for the regional
[windsurfing competition. Zuteck
came home with third place and an
invitation to the national competition
|Nov. 19 at Annapolis, Maryland.
The club is having its fall regatta

until 5 or 6. Teams from Southern
Methodist, Baylor and Texas A&l
will compete with A&M. Prizes will
be given in all divisions.
3 ack will welcome
T ex Cade back
IGREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — The
Green Bay Packers announced Wednes
day they would welcome back former
pliyer Mossy Cade, who was paroled
last week on a sexual assault conviction.
p|Tom Braatz, executive vice president
oflootball operations, issued a statement
saying he and team President Robert Pa-
rins. a former circuit judge, met with
: Cade, a former Texas Longhorn, Tues
day
■P’Judge Parins and I met with Mossy
Cade and his attorney, Randy Rueckert,
in [Chicago Tuesday and told him we
would welcome him back to the Green
Bay Packers next training camp,” the
statement said.
Hr We asked him what he wanted to do,
and he said he wanted to come back and
play football,” Braatz said in an inter
view Wednesday.
HEade, 26, was paroled after serving 15
months of a two-year sentence. His man-
dafory release date was Nov. 28.
Hpade was convicted last year on two
counts of second-degree sexual assault.
He was accused of forcing a Houston
wJnan who was a relative by marriage
to have sex with him.
^Eade played defensive back for the
Packers prior to his conviction. He had
been acquired in a 1985 trade for two
draft picks, and Braatz said the team
wanted to protect its investment by keep
ing a spot open for Cade.
‘‘This is a business decision,” he
said. “We have a need for a defensive
corner.”
A Green Bay television station con
ducted a phone-in survey Monday night,
and 67.3 percent of the more than 5,000
respondents favored Cade’s return.
Packers Coach Lindy Infante said
Wednesday, “If the front office feels
comfortable with Mossy being back, I
don’t have any problems with it.”
Infante said, however, he sensed a
wide split of opinion in the community
regarding Cade’s future with the team.
“There is a contingent of people who
believe that when a guy pays his debt to
society it is over with,” Infante said.
“There are others that say that no matter
what you do you should never have the
guy back on the team because of what he
did in the past. For me to make a bold
statement either way, I feel would be out
of place. It’s a no win, no lose situa
tion.”
Asked if this move represented a
change of heart by management. Infante
said, “I don’t think I can take any credit
or blame for this decision. What happens
with Mossy happened before I got here. I
told Tom and the judge I could live with
their decision.”
Tiger-Gator battle
highlights week
Associated Press
If you like spine-tingling games that
aren’t decided until the last minute —
former New York Mets manager Wes
Westrum called them “cliff-dwellers”
— this may not be your week.
You have to go all the way down to
ninth-ranked Auburn to find a Top
Twenty team that is favored by less than
two touchdowns. Clemson and South
Carolina are the only other teams in the
Associated Press rankings that are sin
gle-digit favorites.
The main reason, of course, is that
there isn’t a single game between Top 20
teams this weekend. But watch out for
those Halloween hobgoblins. They may
sneak up on someone.
Like seventh-ranked West Virginia,
for example. The Mountaineers’ 7-0 re
cord is their best since 1955. Since then,
they are 1-30-1 against Penn State and 8-
44-2 in the series, including 13 shutouts.
West Virginia’s last five victories in
the series were by a total of 24 points, in
cluding a 21-7 “romp” in 1955.
The Mountaineers are coming off a
59-19 blitz of Boston College. Penn
State has dropped two in a row, scoring
only one touchdown while losing to Syr
acuse 24-10 and Alabama 8-3.
Despite its lack of success in the se
ries, West Virginia is a 13-point favorite.
Halloween Upset Special . . . Penn State
24-21.
Last week’s prediction record was 28-
21- 1 — .598, dropping the season’s
score to 280-112-4 — .714. Against the
point spread, last week’s mark was 20-
Army runs
to pass-less
Associated Press
“Thou shall not pass” could be
Army’s motto this season.
Since Coach Jim Young installed the
wishbone offense in 1984, the Cadets are
22- 0 when they throw six passes or less,
31-4 when they throw nine times or less.
When they put the ball in the air more
than nine times, their record is a sorry 3-
14-1.
To paraphrase an old gag, Army is
first in war, first in peace and last among
the nation’s 104 Division I-A teams in
passing offense.
In seven games, of which they have
won six, the Cadets have thrown just 39
passes and completed 16 for an average
of 56 yards a game. But they are third in
rushing with a 377-yard average.
“Army has a certain element of disci
pline simply by the nature of their insti
tution,” Rutgers coach Dick Anderson
said.
“The wishbone, I think, is tailored to
their temper, tailored to their institution,
because it involves an extreme amount of
discipline. I think they play it exception
ally well.
“They’re not very big up front offen
sively or defensively, and yet they come
after you very tough, very tough.”
St.John’s extra points
get more interesting
Associated Press
Coach Bob Ricca of St. John’s (N.Y.)
University has seen both sides of the
NCAA’s new conversion rule which al
lows the defensive team to score two
points.
Earlier in the season, with the score
tied 24-24, the Redmen blocked an ex
tra-point attempt by Iona and ran it all
the way for two points and a 26-24 vic
tory.
Last Saturday, C.W. Post scored a
touchdown to pull within 21-20 and lined
up for an extra point that could have tied
the game.
St. John’s blocked it, but this time the
ball bounced right back to holder Tim
Mclntee.
Mclntee alertly passed the ball to tight
end Todd Hokunson in the end zone.
Instead of a 21-21 tie, Post led 22-21
and went on to win 29-21.
“Although we do not have a designed
play for a blocked extra point, we do
have a play called ‘Red-Red’ for botched
field goals where the ball recoverer
throws to the tight end,” Coach Tom
Marshall said.
“I give Tim a lot of credit,” Marshall
said. “He had the wherewithal to regroup
and make a great play. ’ ’
Mclntee is better known as a three
time All-America lacrosse player and is
playing collegiate football for the first
time.
In addition, he is a defensive back
who ranked among the Division III lead
ers with seven interceptions in five
games.
A hip injury prevented him from play
ing defense on Saturday, but because he
became statistically involved in the
game, his per-game interception mark
dropped even though he didn’t play a
down on defense.
Ricca said, “The extra point is no
longer a boring play.”
