Staff and Wire Reports In 1993, the Texas A&M soccer team was bom with high expectations and lofty goals. One of those goals was attained Friday when the South west Conference voted in favor of conference affili ation for five SWC schools with soccer programs. Joining A&M for a one-year stint in SWC soc cer will be the University of Texas, Southern Methodist, Texas Christian and Texas Tech. The school that wins the SWC race next year will be the only SWC soccer champion ever. The follow ing season, Texas Tech, UT and A&M will all join the Big 12 while SMU and TCU join the Western Athletic Conference, along with Rice. In its first two years of competition, A&M was a member of the South Region, one of four such regions in Division I play, which also contained nine-time defending NCAA champion North Car olina and national powerhouse Duke. The Aggies will return 10 starters and nine of their top ten scorers from the 1994 team that posted a 15-2-2 record, including an 8-0 mark at the Aggie Soccer Complex. Despite the strong record, the Aggies were not invited to the NCAA Championships despite ending the match on a 10-match winning streak. However, for the first time ever, A&M re ceived votes in the Intercollegiate Soccer Associa tion of America Top 20 poll. In their two years as a program, the Aggies have compiled a 30-5-3 record, a .829 winning percentage. The 1995 season begins for A&M with an exhi bition on Aug. 26 against a team of A&M alumni. The regular season starts Sept. 3 against Mar quette University and the Aggies’ first-ever con ference game will be at home against TCU on Sept. 18. The SWC Championships tournament will be held Nov. 2-5 in Dallas. Winder Continued from Page 2 talks the talk, but does not walk the walk. The bar tastes good about every third day or when you are starv ing to death. Chuck Quits — This is a popular candy bar named af ter Phoenix Suns forward Charles Barkley. The bar has set numerous sales records, but has never won the championship for best taste. The company who owps Chuck Quits threatens to quit producing it every time the bar does not win it all, but keeps bringing it back season after season. Wild Pitch — This lovely white chocolate bar based on j the career of Mitch Williams ! is a replica of a major league I baseball. The inside is filled | with creamy chocolate which makes a mess every time you j take a bite. Guaranteed to go everywhere but your taste buds. The slogan is, “It’s as if your mouth is the strike zone, and Mitch is the pitcher.” The Happy Clapper — Not actually a candy bar, 1 but in fact a recording of San i Antonio Spur Jack Haley en- j couraging people to eat one. ! Next year at all Spurs games, Haley will go into the stands and help people munch on sweets, because let’s face it, he’s not going to be playing. LACROSSE: California tourney highlights second year Continued from Page 2 did this by holding various fund raisers, ineluding cleaning Kyle Field, stuffing envelopes and selling T-shirts and sweat shirts. With one tournament under their belt, the team is now striving to hold its own major tournament this fall. The members are planning to ex tend welcomes to a large vari ety of schools. “We’re inviting teams from the California tournament be cause they get more funding, es pecially travel funding, “Mc- Nurlen said. “We’re also trying to bring in Arkansas, Kansas State, Colorado and Texas Tech, which just got a team this year.” During the spring and fall semes ters, the team practices for two hours a day, five days a week on Simpson Drill Field. A majority of the players have very little expe rience with lacrosse. Many prac tices are spent each semester with the more experienced play ers teaching the new players the fundamentals of lacrosse. The new players are brought along first with the basic skills of lacrosse-cradling, scooping ground balls, throwing and catching, and then with offensive and defensive drills and scrimmages. Despite the strain of having to play and show others the moves at the same time, McNurlen said she enjoys teaching almost as much as being on the field. “I love having someone else catch on and get their skills go ing, “McNurlen said. “Sometimes it can be difficult drawing the line between friends and author ity, but I love to teach.” The lacrosse team does more than just practice and play, how ever. In its two years, the team has been Involved in numerous community organizations. In April, the team participated in Big Event for the second time. this time spreading wood chips at A&M’s ropes course.. Last fall, team representa tives introduced middle school students to lacrosse at St. Michael’s Academy and last De cember, the team went caroling in an area nursing home. Although the fall semester is their off-season, the team will host their own invitational next semester. Next spring, they plan to play a full schedule, traveling throughout Texas to play other schools and re turning to Califor nia for another tournament. Olsen, who had never played lacrosse before noticing a flier in ; her dorm, jsaid the team is a wonder ful experience for anyone, re gardless of their playing ability. “It’s a great experience for incoming freshmen who haven’t found their spot yet on cam pus,” Olsen said. “I can’t imag ine not playing now." "When I came here I played on a men's team because I wanted to play so much." — Heather McNurlen Texas AdrM Women s Lacrosse President Weak-hitting Marlins bash Houston q Florida's Chris Hammond hits the first grand slam by a pitcher in nine years. MIAMI (AP) — Chris Hammond hit the first grand slam by a pitcher in nearly nine years and Terry Pendle ton went 5-for-5 to help the Florida Marlins beat the Houston Astros 9-7 Monday night. The Marlins, whose .224 batting aver age entering the game was last in the ma jor leagues, had a season-high 19 hits. Alex Arias went 4-for-4. Hammond put his team ahead 4-2 with a one-out homer in the second in ning, but the left-hander didn’t pitch long enough to earn the victory. He de parted with an 8-3 lead and the bases loaded in the fourth, and Mark Gardner retired Craig Biggio and Jeff Bagwell to end the inning. Hammond’s grand slam was the first by a pitcher since Bob Forsch of St. Louis hit one against Pittsburgh’s Mike Bielecki on Aug. 10, 1986. Pendleton had three singles, a double and a triple to tie his career high for hits in a game. He also committed two errors at third base. Florida left fielder Jeff Conine’s consec utive-game streak of 307, second only to Cal Ripken among active players, ended. Conine, who has been slowed by a strained left hamstring, had played in every game in Marlins history.
