places second at meet
By Kristine Ramirez
The Battalion
The Texas A&M Skeet &
Trap Club competed against
52 schools to place second in
the 1994 ACU-I Collegiate
Clay Target Championships in
El Reno, Okla. April 20-23.
Texas A&M’s ‘A” team fin
ished second with a score of
1935 out of 2100 targets and
the “B” team finished third.
George Mason finished first
winning by one target.
The team competed in four
events: International Trap, In
ternational Skeet, American
Trap and American Skeet.
They finished first in Inter
national Trap and American
Trap. Andy Stahl finished sec
ond in the American Trap
competition with 197 out of
200 targets.
The team also placed third
in the International Skeet and
second in the American Skeet
competitions. M. J. Schult
was the Class AA champion
and Phillip Saldivar was the
runner-up in the American
Skeet competition.
Texas A&M also won first
in Sporting Clays and Tom
Marrs was the Class AA cham
pion.
Stahl said the team usually
only competes informally
with area schools during the
year.
“We don’t go around and
compete against each other,”
he said. “Most schools don’t
like to play us because we beat
them so badly.”
Texas A&M tennis team
to play for NCAA berth
J From staff and wire reports
The No. 18 Texas A&M men’s
11 tennis team will take a shot at the
|! Southwest region’s automatic
| NCAA berth beginning May 14 at
j the Jess Hess Tennis Stadium at
j I Rice University.
The Aggies (21-3) are seeded
second in the for-team tourna
ment behind top-seeded Arkansas
; (14-10).
The Razorbacks beat A&M , 4-
] 2, in College Station during the
j regular season.
Texas Tech and the fourth-
seeded Rice Owls complete the
field.
A&M head coach David Kent
said he believes his team will
| compete well.
, . “1,’ye called them the wonder
team all year, and we’re not done
yet,” Kent said. “Our destiny is
in our hands, instead of a tourna
ment committee’s.
“We will settle it on the court
and I think it is a good system.”
The Aggies will take on Texas
Tech in the first round, while
Arkansas plays Rice in the other
matchup.
A&M is attempting to bring off
their third consecutive win over
Tech since April 12, a feat which
makes A&M’s task even more dif
ficult, Kent said.
“It’s always tough to beat a
team three times in a short period
of time,” Kent said. “We’ve al
ready beaten them twice, but
both matches were extremely
hard-fought.”
Tigers, Whitaker scorch Rangers, 14-7; Cubs win
The Associated Press
DETROIT — Lou Whitaker, back in the
lineup after missing two games with a sore
left foot, hit a grand slam and a three-run
homer Wednesday, powering the Detroit
Tigers to a 14-7 victory over the Texas
Rangers.
Whitaker’s three-run homer highlighted
Detroit’s six-run third inning, and he
added his third career grand slam in the
eighth to set a career-high with seven RBIs.
Cecil Fielder also hit a long homer in
the third, and Alan Trammell had three
hits and three RBIs for the Tigers, who
benefited from 1 3 walks from seven Texas
pitchers.
Jose Canseco homered for the second
straight game and drove in four runs, and
Manuel Lee had three hits for the Rangers.
Joe Boever (1-0) pitched 1 2-3 innings
of relief for the win.
Chad Kreuter and Tony Phillips drew
leadoff walks in the third off Texas starter
Rick Reed before Whitaker hit his fifth
homer to make it 3-2.
Two batters later, Fielder hit a 47 5-foot
shot that landed on the roof in left field. It
was his ninth home run of the season and
the 200th of his career.
Eric Davis contributed an RBI double in
the third and scored on Trammell’s single.
Reed (0-1) lasted just 2 1-3 innings,
giving up four runs and walking four.
Trailing 8-2, the Rangers rallied for five
runs in the fifth off Detroit starter Bill Gul-
lickson.
Gullickson, a right-hander, was hit in
the right arm by a Bill Ripken grounder to
start the fifth.
He stayed in the game, but the next six
Rangers reached base.
Canseco lined a two-run single to bring
Texas to 8-4 and Will Clark followed with
an RBI single.
Canseco was caught stealing for the sec
ond out, and Juan Gonzalez hit a two-run
homer, his sixth, to make it 8-7.
Trammell’s two-run single in the eighth
off Jay Howell, the Rangers’ seventh pitch
er, made it 10-7, and after the Tigers
loaded the bases, Whitaker hit a 1-0 pitch
into the upper deck in right for his sixth
homer.
Gullickson lasted 4 2-3 innings, allow
ing seven runs and 10 hits before giving
way to Boever.
Canseco hit a two-run homer, his sev
