Cross country
hits the road
From Staff and Wire Reports
The Texas A&M cross country
team travels to Waco today to par
ticipate in the Baylor Invitational.
The meet will
e meet will take place at the
Lakeway Golf Course.
The women's race will start at
6 p.m. and the men will begin at
6:30 p.m.
The Aggies will face Baylor,
TCU, Abilene Christian and East
Texas State University in their sec
ond meet of the year.
The track team is coming off a
victory in the Charlie Thomas In
vitational last Monday.
Cross country coach Ed
Marcinkiewicz hopes the men's
team will run well against a tal
ented group of competition.
The men will be trying to
demonstrate the ability to com
pete with some of the better teams
in the region," Marcinkiewicz
said. "I will be watching the
freshmen to see how they react to
a more competitive field."
The women, who are ranked
third in the latest NCAA District
VI Cross Country Coaches Poll,
are also using this meet to see
where they stack up against the
competition.
"On the women's side, Baylor
is one of the top 20 teams in the
country and odds on favorite for
the Southwest Conference Cham
pionship," he said. "We will be
able to gauge how our team is
progressing in competing against
them."
The Bears are the ranked sec
ond in the women's poll behind
Arkansas.
TED ALBRACHT/ The Battalion
The A&M offensive line opened a wide
path for Greg Hill to run through for his
first touchdown Saturday. The running
back credited the offensive front for his
record-breaking performance against
the Tigers.
Hill credits offensive line
continued from Page 7
talk that he might be the
next great Aggie running back.
' fa
And following behind Lewis, the
fifth leading rusher in NCAA his
tory, that can put pressure on a
young player.
"It was my first college game
ever, so I was a little more nervous
than usual," Hill said.
Hill was quick to give his
teammates credit for accomplish
ment.
"I had a great game today, but
the people you should be inter
viewing is my offensive line and
tight ends," Hill said. "My line
was blowing everybody off the
ball. I didn't even have to throw a
move until I was five yards down
the field."
"I don't know what these guys
have been doing, but those guys
played some ball today. I went
and hugged each lineman (after I
broke the record) and told them
that I loved them," Hill said. "I
might have to take them out to eat
or something, but I don't know if I
can pay the bill. We might have to
get some tacos for 59 cents."
Whispers of Hill becoming an
All-America and becoming a Heis-
man candidate abound, but the 19-
year-old runner wants nothing to
do with it.
"I've never said anything
about no Heisman. I'm nowhere
near the calliber to win the Heis
man. I'm just plain old Greg Hill
trying to run the ball."
Freshmen set pace for Aggies continued from Page 7
thought we had good chemistry
with this team.
"Before the game we talked
about the importance of leaning
on each other and counting on
each other. Our players seemed to
pull together when we lost Bucky
and Doug Carter early in the
game."
Richardson limped off the
field after completing a seven-
yard pass to Tony Harrison dur
ing the Aggies second drive of the
game. Three plays later. Carter
sprained an ankle and was forced
to leave the game.
Richardson said his foot was
stepped on during the previous
play when he ran to the left side
for a three-yard gain. He said he
strained the arch in his foot and
will receive treatment for the in
jury early this week.
Granger and Petty shared the
quarterback role the rest of the
way and guided the Aggies to 28
unanswered points before the
Tigers finally got a touchdown on
the scoreboard early in the third
quarter.
Granger, who completed five
of eight passes for 89 yards, said
the A&M team pulled together
with the new faces.
"The team on the field was a
little nervous - we were down be
cause we had lost our team lead
er," Granger said. "After the first
couple of drives, Kent Petty and
myself did our job and the offen
sive line adjusted to us.
"We came together and
showed what a good football team
we really are."
Hill took the pressure off the
quarterbacks, slashing and cutting
up field while carrying the ball 30
times for the Aggies. But the tail
back credited the offensive line
with allowing him to gain the
record-breaking numbers.
"It's a dream right now and I
haven't woke up yet," Hill said.
"But when I do I will realize it
wasn't just me out there - it was
the offensive line, the tight ends,
the fullbacks, the entire offense
that was out there. We played as
one today, as 9 team."
The A&M offense totaled 524
yards on the day, 409 rushing.
"You should be interviewing
end zone and everybody was say
ing 'you're running and you're al
ready in the end zone.'
"I just wanted to get in the end
zone."
LSU struggled for 197 total
yards in the game. Hallman said
he was displeased with the perfor
mance of the Tigers Saturday.
"The game was similar to last
week (31-10 loss to Georgia) in
that we gave up a touchdown on
the first drive," Hallman said.
"We just got a good fanny-kicking
today.
"I thought the difference in the
"I though the difference in the game was their
ability to run the ball and our inability to stop the
run."

LSU head football coach
my offensive line, not me," Hill
said. "They were blowing off the
line of scrimmage.
"I didn't have to make a move
until I was five yards down the
field."
Carter rushed for 50 yards be
fore leaving the game. Thomas re
placed Carter and and ran for 81
yards.
Groce, a true freshman from
A&M Consolidated, rushed for 12
yards but more importantly
caught two passes for 27 yards.
His first catch, a five-yard pass
from Granger, put him in the end
zone for the Aggies' fifth touch
down of the half.
"It was real exciting," Groce
said. "I didn't know I was in the
game was their ability to run the
ball and our inability to stop the
run."
The Aggie defense held the
Tigers to a total of 31 yards rush
ing while intercepting three passes
and sacking LSU quarterbacks five
times.
Sophomore safety Patrick
Bates stole two interceptions for
the Aggies while linebacker
Quentin Coryatt and senior safety
Chris Grooms led the team with
eight tackles and one sack apiece.
Todd Kinchen, the LSU split
end who burned the Aggies last
year in Baton Rouge, was held to
61 yards on four receptions in the
game.
