Lady Aggies sign
3A Player
From Staff and Wire Reports
The Texas A&M women’s basket
ball team made a move Wednesday
to improve its offensive output by
signing Beth Burket, considered by
the Tdxas Sportswriters Association
as the Class 3 A Player of the Year.
Burket, a 6-1 forward from Jour-
danton High School, amassed 2,873
points during her high school ca
reer. Her totals placed her third on
Texas’ all-time scoring list.
Lady Aggie basketball coach Lynn
Hickey said Burket is just the type of
athlete that the A&M women’s bas
ketball program needs to compete
next year.
“We really feel good about signing
Beth,” Hickey said. “She has a lot of
natural athletic ability. She’s an ath
lete, a competitor and a real good
student.
“She matches the profile of the
type of person that we’re looking to
of Year
add to our program.”
Burket earned all-district honors
every year in high school, and
gained regional honors twice during
her high school career. In her senior
year at Jourdanton, Burket gained
all-state recognition from the Texas
Sportswriters Association and the
Texas Association of Basketball
coaches.
During her career, she averaged
23 points, 10.3 rebounds and 4 steals
a game. In 125 games, Burket failed
to reach double figures only once.
As a senior, Burket averaged 26
points per game and shot 55 percent
from the field.
“She was all-everything here,”
Pam Clary, Jourdanton women’s
basketball coach said of Burket.
“She’s been scoring 20 points a game
on a consistent basis since she was a
freshman.
“She’s a really good athlete, and I
think she will really help the A&M
program.”
Aggie tennis goes abroad,
signs two foreign athletes
From Staff and Wire Reports
The Texas A&M men’s tennis
team signed two top international
recruits to letters of intent Tues
day, announced Aggie coach Da
vid Kent.
New Zealander Adam King
and Clayton Johnson of Pretoria,
South Africa join last week’s sig-
nee Mark Weaver as A&M’s new-
The 6-4, 210-pound King has
competed in World Youth Cup
Tournament and represented
New Zealand in the World Youth
Finals in Australia and is ranked
third in New Zealand in the 18-
and-under category.
“He’s an outstanding doubles
player and he has the fastest serve
m New Zealand,” Kent said. “He
is the complete power player.”
Johnson joins the Aggies after
completing duty with the South
African Army where he com
peted against many internation
ally-ranked players including a
victory over 1987 Southwest Con
ference champion Brent Hay-
garth of A&M.
Cowboys desperately
seeking draft talent
IRVING (AP) — The Dallas Cow
boys own five choices in the top 80
picks of the NFL draft, and do they
need them.
After going 1-15 in Jimmy John
son’s first season as head coach,
there aren’t many spots where the
Cowboys couldn’t use an infusion of
talent.
The big mystery is who the Cow
boys are going to take with their first
round choice, which is No. 21 over
all. The pick was obtained from Min
nesota in the Herschel Walker trade.
Dallas lost its No. 1 pick, which
would have been the top selection in
the draft, by taking quarterback
Steve Walsh in last summer’s supple
mental draft. Walsh started five
games last year, including Dallas’ 13-
3 victory over the Washington
Redskins.
The Cowboys have been shopping
Walsh, but nothing has happened
because their price is high — a No. 1
pick. Walsh, a backup behind Troy
Aikman, will be available draft day.
Dallas was expected to take a run
ning back or defensive lineman in
the first round.
A running back is a must because
Paul Palmer departed via the free
agency route in the off-season;
Palmer cost Dallas a 12 th round
choice to Detroit and didn’t suit out
in the final regular season game be
cause of a dispute with Johnson.
“This draft looks strong at run
ning back,” Johnson said. “Also, de
fense is a big key for us. In order to
get real quality defensive players it is
important to draft them early.”
The top running backs in the
draft included Blair Thomas of
Penn State, Emmitt Smith of Flor
ida, Rodney Hampton of Georgia,
Darrell Thompson of Minnesota,
Anthony Thompson of Indiana,
Harold Green of South Carolina,
Reggie Cobb of Tennessee and
James Gray of Texas Tech.
Dallas has two selections in the
second round, including first choice
— 26th overall. The Cowboys also
have the 22nd pick (47th overall)
from Minnesota in the Walker trade.
In the third round, Dallas has the
15th (68th overall) from Kansas City
in the Steve Pelluer trade, and the
27th choice (80th overall) from
Denver in the Kevin Brooks trade.
Dallas has no fourth rounders but
has the 11th choice (120th overall) in
the fifth round. It was obtained
from Miami in the Scott Secules
trade.
In the sixth round, Dallas has
three picks, one in the seventh, two
in the ninth, one in the 10th, and
one in the 11th.
The Cowboys signed an NFL-high
16 Plan-B free agents for over |1
million in bonuses. The top prospect
was wide receiver Dennis McKin
non, who came from the Chicago
Bears.
Johnson said because of the num
ber of Plan-B free agents, the Cow
boys won’t have to reach for as many
players.
“I want aggressive players who
have speed,” Johnson said. “I was
surprised by the lack of team speed
we had last year.”
