ARTERBUR1 | Sportswriter Well sports fans, the flashy flam boyant golden boy from Atlanta, is no longer Atlanta’s very own two- sporter. Deion Sanders was in formed during the second inning of the Braves and Cubs game Monday that he had been traded to the Cincinnati Reds for Roberto Kelly and a minor league pitcher to be named later. Sorry Georgia, but it’s time for you to let go of your play toy and share with the rest of us. Or at least share with the Cincinnati Reds’ owner Marge “Mean Mamma” Schott. And even though she may think he’s a “fruity player,” because he wears an earring, she wants to play too! After all, he’s Neon Deion. And he will be a bright spot for the first place Reds. Trades like this make me wonder what kind of people are running baseball. “I’ll give you my doll, if you give me yours and a doll to be named later.” Something is wrong here. I simply don’t see Bobby Cox saying, “Hey, let’s get rid of Deion today.” On paper, this trade looks pretty even for both clubs. Their season numbers are almost identical. Kelly hit .302 with 3 homers, 21 RBI and nine stolen bases. Deion hit .288 with 4 homers, 21 RBI and 19 stolen bases. While the stats may seem compa rable, they don’t tell the whole sto ry. Sanders is the fastest man in baseball, and his speed means everything. He’s an automatic threat as a solid leadoff hitter, and once he’s on base, he dictates every move the pitcher makes.

The meet will be held in Bronco Stadium on the cam pus of Boise State University. One part of the Aggies’ contingent will try and keep their winning ways. During the NCAA meet, A&M’s 1600-meter re lay team will try and repeat their indoor national title. The team won the indoor title in February with a time of 3:06.51. The 1600-meter team of Stacy Zam- zow, Mike Miller, Dante Bolden and Danny McCray also qualified for the NCAA outdoor meet. However, Curt Young has replaced Bolden in the start ing line-up. Bolden will serve as an al ternate. Zamzow, Miller, Young and McCray automatically qualified for the outdoor meet by running a 3:04.04 at the Penn Relays. That time was the fourth best in school history and the fifth best in the nation this year. The 1600-meter team is only one part of a successful A&M team. Throughout the past season, the Aggie men have competed in six scored meets, winning five. The Lady Aggies have competed in five scored meets. They won the Texas A&M Invitational, finished third at the Rice Bayou Classic, finished fourth at the Arizona Shootout and finished fifth at the College Station Relays and the SWC Championships. —From Staff and Wire Reports A&M golfer NCAA bound By Constance Parten The Battalion He walks the walk and talks the talk of a potential tour champion ac cording to Dallas Morning News sports- writer Harless Wade. Anthony Ro driguez has placed in the top 10 in nine tournaments this season alone, and is A&M’s only contender for a national golf title this year. Is Anthony Ro driguez a future All-American? With a 73.60 stroke average, six top five finishes and a unanimous selection for the All-Southwest Conference Team this year, Rodriguez is soaring into his first ever NCAA Men’s Golf Champi onship. A top 15 finish in the tourna ment would assure him a spot on the All-American team. The first of four rounds begins today at the 7,000-yard, par 72 Stonebridge Country Club in McKinney. The tour nament runs through Saturday. Head coach Bob Ellis said the Stonebridge course has advantages for Rodriguez. “The course is in good shape and An thony has played this course before and likes this course,” Ellis said. “I like his attitude and I think he will perform well here.” Performing well is what got Ro driguez to the NCAA’s. After shooting an even-par 213 at the Central Regional Tournament in Oklahoma City last month, Rodriguez waited three hours to find out if he had qualified for an individual bid to the Please see Rodriguez, Page 4 The Associated Press Utah’s Felton Spencer goes for a loose ball as Hous ton’s Hakeem Olajuwon guards. Houston moved into the NBA Championship after beating Utah Tuesday. Rockets launch into NBA finals HOUSTON (AP) — For most of the night, the Hohiston Rockets looked like the absolute best team remaining in the NBA playoffs. No doubt about it. Now they have a chance to prove they can be champions. Playing almost perfect basketball for the first 3 1/2 quar ters the Rockets ridded themselves of the Utah Jazz with a 94-83 victory Tuesday night for a 4-1 victory in their best-of-7 Western Conference championship series. And after eight years, a period in which three mini-dynas ties came and went, the Rockets are back in the NBA Finals. It was a totally lopsided game until Utah struck with a 16- 0 fourth-quarter run. But the Jazz were down by 24 when the spurt started and they just couldn’t catch up. Houston came out hitting almost everything it put up, took a 13-point lead after one quarter, built the lead as high as 22 in the second and avoided a “Choke City” breakdown in the second half. Everyone contributed. Robert Horry had his best game of the series, scoring 22 points. It was the same story for Vernon Maxwell, who hit four 3-pointers in the first period to give the Rockets the momentum they never lost. He finished with 19 points. Hakeem Olajuwon scored 22 points and Otis Thorpe had 11 points and 16 rebounds. The Jazz shot poorly right from the start and couldn’t keep up with Houston’s onslaught. Jeff Hornacek scored 21 points and Karl Malone had 31, but no on else played as if it were a do-or-die game, and that, more than anything else, led to the loss. So it’s on to the championship round for Houston, which will begin June 8 at the Summit against New York or Indi ana. That series is tied 2-2 with Game 5 set for Wednesday night at New York. It will be the third appearance in the finals for Houston, which lost to the Boston Celtics in 1981 and 1986. Since then, the Rockets have watched Los Angeles Lakers, Detroit Pistons and Chicago Bulls each win back-to-back Please see Rockets, Page 4 REGISTER NOW FOR SUMMER CLASSES n m jgg m LANGUAGES MSC BASEMENT chinese DANCE Beginning Country 6 Western Dance Mon.
