championship, Stoll in 1982
and 1983 and Andaya in
1987.
Or, the complex could be
named for a productive and
influential coach, much like
Disch-Faulk Field in Austin
(although, they might have
to rename it Gustafson
Field.)
It could, perhaps, be a
coach that has three nation
al championships and a ca
reer winning percentage of
.723 to his credit.
What? What was that?
A&M’s already got one, you
say. Well, sure enough, it
does.
A&M head coach Bob
Brock has won three nation
al championships here at
A&M and has been the run
ner-up twice more.
His 571 wins through the
1993 season puts him
fourth on a list of influential
names that includes Shar-
ron Backus of UCLA and
Bill Galloway of Louisiana
Tech.
Brock has brought a win
ning program to A&M from
the start and has sustained
those winning ways
throughout his 12-year ca
reer here.
The facility that A&M
built is, from appearances,
first class. It should be giv
en a first class name. There
can be none better than Bob
Brock Field.
“Hey guys, let’s go down
to Brock Field and see some
softball.”
It even sounds better.
Draft

but he is excited and looking for
ward to playing with the Seattle
organization.
“I didn’t know what to expect.
I had heard everything from late
first to the third or fourth
round,” he said. “I hope to get
the money worked out soon, so I
can start pitching for either
Riverside (A) or Jacksonville
(AA).”
Other Aggies and recruits, in-
DALLAS (AP) — World Cup
USA president Alan Rothenberg
got his first and what he hopes
will be his last look at the 6-foot
fence surrounding the Cotton
Bowl playing field on Monday.
Rothenberg used his visit to
Dallas as part of his ongoing
tour of the nine venues hosting
the soccer tournament to contin
ue pleading with city officials to
tear down the chain-link barrier.
“We think it gives the ab
solute wrong message to fans
and the international communi
ty about the city, the country
and the sport,” Rothenberg said.
Game organizers and city offi
cials worked out a deal last week
to remove the fence from the
west side of the stadium, allow
ing unobstructed shots for televi
sion cameras and clear sightlines
for fans in the front 10 or so
rows.
With plans for half the fence
to come down later this week,
Rothenberg and crew are trying
to convince the city to go ahead
and take down the entire fence.
eluding Robert Harris and Lee
Fedora, were expecting to be
drafted. Their status is un
known because Major League
Baseball does not release the
picks of the later rounds until
about a week after the first
round, said Alan Cannon, the
sports information director at
Texas A&M.
Johnson said losing so many
players is part of collegiate base
ball. He said he knew going in
that this year’s junior class was
big and that he would have to
replace some people.
Recruiting high-school kids
“We’re pleased, very pleased,
at the progress that’s been
made,” Rothenberg said. “But
being as persistent as we are,
we’re going to still push for
more. We won’t be happy until
it’s completed.”
who are eligible for the draft is
also a challenge, he said.
“Baseball is the hardest sport
to recruit,” he said. “You try to
get kids who are interested in
an education, but then when
they get drafted and have that
bonus money in front of them,
sometimes their priorities
change.”
Johnson said the draft is
something college coaches have
to deal with.
“It’s a shaky thing,” he said,
“We know going in every year
that well have to deal with loss-
Rothenberg and others met
with city officials Monday and
vow to continue fighting as long
as possible. The first game in
Dallas is June 17 between Spain
and South Korea.
“The fact that they’re still
willing to talk about it encour
ages us that they’re minds are at
least a little open,” Rothenberg
said.
As part of last week’s deal,
World Cup USA will put a pro
tective tarp over several sections
of seats and will enhance on-field
security.
The west side was chosen be
cause of television and after sur
veying the profile of tickethold
ers in that area, said Dallas
venue executive director Bill
Stroube.
Other venues with fences are
Stanford Stadium, which has a
permanent one, and at RFK Sta
dium in Washington. Although
temporary, the RFK fence is s«
feet below the lowest row of
seats, thus making it less of a
hindrance.

Alou drives in

MONTREAL (AP) — Moises
Alou hit two homers and drove
in a career-high five runs Mon
day night to lead the Montreal
Expos to their fifth straight
win, 10-5 over the Houston As
tros.
Wil Cordero added a two-
run homer for the Expos in the
sixth inning when they scored
five runs and took a 10-3 lead.
Alou hit a two-run homer in
the third inning off Greg
Swindell (5-2), and added a
three-run shot, his seventh, in
the sixth off Tom Edens.
Butch Henry (3-0) allowed
three runs and seven hits over
six-plus innings for the win.
Mike Lansing went 3-for-5
and scored twice for Montreal.
Tony Eusibeo and Kevin

“I just wanted to do some
thing different where I could
work with students and visi
tors more,” she said.
Perez thinks of the visitor
center as the liaison between
prospective students, their
families and Texas A&M.
Thirty-five visitor center
student employees welcome
close to 10,000 potential Aggies
each year by setting up cam
pus tours and appointments
with various academic areas
and counseling services, she
said.
“Hopefully, we let visitors
see what A&M is really all
about,” she said.
Despite her current decision
to go back to school, Perez said
she never had a desire to at
tend college before.
“I didn’t prepare for college
at all in high school,” she said.
“But then I started working on
campus 16 years ago and just
decided to take advantage of
the opportunity and go to
school.”
Along with going to school
and working full-time, Perez is
the mother of two girls — 10-
year-old Danielle and seven-
year-old Ashley.
Her husband Larry gradu
ated in May with a degree in
agricultural development.
A typical day for Perez in
volves a 7 a.m. drive from
Madisonville to campus. She
works at the visitor center,
goes to class and then back to
work. Afterward, she manages
to spare time as head coach of
Danielle’s softball team.
Amy Reeves, a senior ele
mentary education major and
employee of the visitor center,
said she regards Perez as a
mother and a boss.
“Going to work is like going
home,” Reeves said. “Whenev
er something bad happens to
me, I just come here.”
Brian Pinto, Perez’s cowork
er and a graduate student in
tax and accounting, said she
should be admired for all she
does.
“Anyone who can juggle
motherhood, school, being a
good wife, coaching her daugh
ter’s softball team and running
a visitor center which has sev
eral thousand people come
through a year, is to be ad
mired,” he said.
Perez said the only advice
she can give to incoming fresh
men is the same advice she
gave her Fish Camp.
“If you start something, fin
ish it, regardless of what it is
and regardless of how long it
takes you,” she said. “Just do
the best you can.”
