Aggie track team jump starts season
By Stewart Doreen
The Baltalion
The Texas A&M men's and
women's track and field teams
brought a limited number of par
ticipants on Saturday to Norman,
Ok., but were still able to make
great strides in opening the 1994
indoor season, said Texas A&M's
head track coach.
Head coach De Nelson said
the meet, which included squads
from the University of Oklahoma,
Baylor, TCU and the University of
Texas at. Arlington, as a "see-
where-we-are meet."
He emphasized that before the
meet that the teams' conditioning
that was already limited due to
the late start of the spring would
be tested.
The Aggies came through on
Saturday with some quality per
formances.
•Mast Miller used a strong kick
to pass two of the nation's better
quarter-milers down the stretch in
route to his victory in the men's
600-meter run.
•Freshman Larry Wade started
his career with an impressive sec
ond place finish in the men's 55-
meter hurdles. A&M's Curt
Young and Richard Murphy took
third and fourth place, respective
ly.
•Kendrick Smith won the
men's Long Jump with a leap of
23-7. Phillip Madkins took third
place with a 22-9 jump.
• Anjanette Kirkland dominat
ed the women's 55-meter hurdles
with a first-place time of 7.93.
• Belle, Cecille and April San-
galang said their success was be
cause of a "better holiday running
schedule" to finish second, third
and fifth in the women's 1000-me
ter run.
Field Coach Abe Brown said
the meet gave the season a posi
tive outlook.
"I am pleased with the perfor
mance," Brown said. "It is a good
start and we'll have to continue to
work towards the Southwest Con
ference Championships."
Coach Nelson said he expects
the Aggies will carry the full team
to Oklahoma City for the Sooner
Classic next weekend.
