Texas sweeps
two in Boston
BOSTON (AP) - Pinch hitter
John Cangelosi singled home the
go-ahead run in the ninth inning
Sunday and the Texas Rangers
beat the Boston Red Sox 4-2 for a
doubleheader sweep.
The Rangers broke a four-
game losing slump in winning the
first game 3-1. Bobby Witt worked
out of two bases-load jams and the
Red Sox left 13 runners, including
nine in scoring position.
Texas capitalized on reliever
Greg Harris' wildness to complete
the sweep after Brian Downing
tied the score with a two-run
homer in the eighth.
Harris (1-1) started the ninth
by walking Julio Franco and Dean
Palmer. Tony Fossas relieved and
struck out A1 Newman, but Jeff
Reardon took over and gave up
RBI singles to Cangelosi and Ivan
Rodriguez.
Terry Mathews (1-1) was the
winner and Jeff Russell pitched the
ninth for his second save of the
day and fifth of the season.
In the first game, Witt (2-2) al
lowed seven hits, walked four and
struck out four in seven innings.
Kenny Rogers replaced Witt at the
start of the eighth, then gave way
to Russell, who got the final out.
By leaps and bounds...
A&M hurdler Richard Murphy, far right, flies

competition. A&M also won the B finals of li Court
4 x 100 relay and placed third in the A Finals
the 4 x 400 relay. A&M will host the Souths Monda
Conference meet which begins on April 30.

the 19th and minutes later traded
up to 17th to take Smith, the
Southwest Conference's all-time
leading interceptor. Even though
he was not stunned with his selec
tion, Smith said he was pleased to
stay in Texas.
"I wasn't very surprised,"
Smith said. "I felt like that was the
place that I was going to end up
going. Just from meeting those
guys at the combine and talking
with coach Johnson, I felt like that
was going to be the place for me.
Smith, a native of Orange,
agreed verbally to a four-year deal
with Dallas, as did the Cowboys'
other first-round pick, Robert
Jones of East Carolina.
Cowboys head coach Jimmy
Johnson said Smith would be a
player that can contribute right
away.
"We really liked Kevin Smith,"
Johnson said. "We had seen him
work out at Texas A&M, and he is
the career interception leader at
A&M, so we saw that he could
make a big contribution.
"Smith is a talented cover cor-
nerback. He can help us in our
nickel packages and is a good
punt returner.
Smith said that he felt Dallas
made a good choice in taking him
over top defensive backs Terrell
Buckley of Florida State and Troy
Vincent of Wisconsin.
"I think I'm more a student of
the game," Smith said. "1 feel I
can compete against the best of
those receivers. Those guys (Buck-
ley and Vincent) have a lot to of
fer, but I think if I had to go
head up and compete against
those guys. I'd win.
"Dallas got the best cornerback
in this draft."
Wheeler, led all A&M defen
sive linemen with 41 tackles and
tied for third with 4.5 sacks. He
had tried out for the Buccaneers
earlier and had hoped to be select
ed by them.
"They came down and worked
me out, and I have been wearing a
Bucs cap ever since," Wheeler
said. "I just wanted to go some
where where it was hot. I'm excit
ed."
Grooms, who also hails from
Baytown, joined Smith in creating
one of the best secondaries in the
nation in 1991-92. He had 51 tack
les on the season, the fifth-best on
the team.
The Aggies were among five
college teams that had two players
picked in the first round. Stan
ford, Washington, Miami and Ten
nessee rounded out the list.
A&M tied with Texas as the
teams in the SWC with the most
players selected in the first five
rounds, each having four. There
were 11 SWC players selected
Sunday.
Coryatt and University of
Houston quarterback David Klin-
gler made the first SWC duo since
1984 to be picked in the top 10 of
the draft. Klingler went to the
Cincinnati Bengals with the sixth
pick in the first round.

Instead of hopping on the
phone, Jerry and Jimmy just sat
there. And by sitting there, they
passed up a golden opportunity.
There were two of the country's
top defensive backs sitting right
there in front of them, and they
didn't even take notice.
Lucky for Jimmy and Jerry it
wasn't a rattlesnake.
Miami Hurricane safety Dar
ryl Williams and Mississippi
Valley State cornerback Ashley
Ambrose were the two players
left dangling in front of the Cow
boys after they picked Jones.
But instead of trading a cou
ple of their many second and
third round picks for a chance at
Williams or Ambrose, they de
cided to go with the numbers.
To get Ambrose or Williams,
they only needed to trade up to a
spot behind No. 24 where they
picked Jones.
What would it have taken?
The Detroit Lions had the No.
26 pick and probably would have
been interested in two picks in
the top of the second round.
That's where the Cowboys could
have come in and cleaned house.
Just think what it would be
like to have K. Smith and Darryl
Williams in the defensive back-
field together for Dallas. Am
brose would have been nice, too.
Jerry and Jimmy's goof-up on
Sunday, however, wasn't sur
prising. They've shown over the
last couple of years what their
theory on the draft is - a large
collection of good players is bet
ter than a small collection of
great ones.
It's not an outrageous theory
if you have to completely rebuild
a team from ground-up, like the
Indianapolis Colts or the Green
Bay Packers. But for the Cow
boys, it's time to make the moves
for players like Carter and Am
brose.
And even if all of their picks
end up being good, quality NFL
players, what do they do with all
of them?
It seems unlikely that the
Cowboys will be able to sign all
four of their top picks. And if by
some chance they do sign all
these guys, where do all the cur
rent Cowboys go?
Young Dallas players, who
need some time to develop, may
be out of time with the influx of
draftees.
It just would have been
smarter for Dallas to take three or
four great players instead of so
many good ones.
For fans, who are excited
about the acquisition of K. Smith,
it's too bad the Cowboys couldn't
do more. It wasn't that hard to
find a complement to Smith.
Williams and Carter were
right there for the taking.
There's still pollution, starv
ing people and a hole in the
ozone layer. And the verdict is
still out on whether or not John
son and Jones know how to draft
in the NFL.
