PONTIAC, Mich. (AP) — The Detroit Lions, winless entering the game and some fans calling for coach Wayne Pontes’ dis missal, delivered the biggest jolt of the NFL season Monday night. They beat the Super Bowl champion San Francisco 49ers 27-24 when Doug Brien missed a 40-yard field goal as time ex pired, the ball bouncing off the right upright. In sending San Francisco to its first loss of the season, Ja son Hanson kicked the winning 32-yard field goal with 1:12 re maining and the Lions pre vailed, astoundingly, without it big game from Barry Sanders. The Lions began the winning drive on their 26 with no time outs left. Scott Mitchell hit Herman Moore for 12 yards, Brett Perri- man for 22 and Aubrey Matthews for 11. That moved the Lions to the 49ers’ 16. Mitchell’s sneak on third- ipped :iy inches, for the I remaining it ,es signaled it again.

Cowboy 1 yard touc Ch Series of NFL injuries causes attack on turf Coloradi Houston Chicago □ Colorado's Koy Detmer is the latest star to suffer a turf-related injury. Al Rol nd safety Marcus for the season on Dili IRVING (AP) — Three weeks into the season, the NFI. has lost the services of several players —- including overall No. 1 draft pick Ki-Jana Carter and All-Pro cornerback Rod Woodson — to season-ending injuries attributed to artificial turf. For once, football players should be heard, and they're saying “Get rid of artificial turf,” said wide receiver Michael Irvin. “Why go through all these studies and listen to doctors when football players are telling you they hate it?” The Fort Worth Star- Telegram surveyed Irvin, quar terback Troy Aikman, offensive guard Nate Newton and run ning back Emmitt Smith, among others, on the turf vs. grass issue. Season-ending injuries to several high-profile players raised the question again. Carter of the Cincinnati Ben- gals and Woodson of the Pitts burgh Steelers aren’t the only casualties. On Sept. 3, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones signed cornerback Kevin Smith to a four-year, $11 million contract, which in cluded a $4 million signing bonus. The next day, in the Cowboys’ opener. Smith’s sea son ended. He torn an Achilles’ tendon in a non-contact play at Giants Stadium while defend- ut id to ‘Asti to nation’s top colic- t erbacks, Koy Del- n cido, faces possible ng knee surgery af- , Saturday against VI that was attrib- ficial turf, irf is absolutely hor 1 said. “It will make - rn sure, a little car- should.” is said for years he lural grass surface, o hasn’t found the j ol grass that grows ; <as Stadium, which [ except for the hole | □ HOU! over 4 offensi Benga want t< switchi He whethe iwboys are built around net-; said, and he doesn't se that'advantage when to natural grass, aid he’s concerned grass field can hold up HOU Kevin D told the The 1 I fensive | his blac headgee Jeff Fis j what h: run the Scar weren’t ing a pass. In the second week of the season, at the Astrodome, the Houston Oilers lost linebacker under inclement weather condi tions late in the season, when high school teams play at Texas Stadium and other non-football activities such as concerts arc held there. In a survey of 965 players con ducted by the NFL Players Asso ciation, 93 percent said injuries are more likely to be caused by playing on artificial turf than grass. What’s more, 85 percent of thc> players surveyed said they would rather play on grass. It isn’t just the headline-grab bing, season-ending injuries that disturb players. It’s the punishment they ab sorb on their arms and legs from the burns and cuts. An outer layer of skin the size of four silver dollars is missing on the right elbow of Cowboys de fensive tackle Leon Lett, cour tesy of turf burns. Hinze Continued from Page 7 sibly get us an at-large berth. We have beat or run close to most of the power teams.” The women’s team finished first at the UTS A Alumni Meet and the Vanderbilt Invitational and finished seventh at the Bay lor Invitational. “We’re in decent shape,” Hinze said. “The Vanderbilt team usually makes it out of their region, and our women beat them. We’re on the bubble.” Senior runner Shannon Etch- berger also has a chance at mak ing her first NCAA meet by fin ishing sixth at UTSA and second at Vanderbilt. “Last year, I was pretty close,” Etchberger said. “This year, 1 want it pretty bad. They take three individual spots after the teams that make it. They take into account the whole sea son, so there is still a chance.” Hinze said he has been thrilled by the performances of freshman runners Scott Lenge- feld and Amy Stanberry. Lenge- feld placed third at UTSA and Vanderbilt while Stanberry fin ished 11th at UTSA and seventh at Vanderbilt. “They have been the most pleasant of surprises,” Hinze said. “They have come in and handled everything I’ve asked them to do.” Etchberger said she is looking forward to the meet this week end for variety. “It will be good for us to go against some different schools,” Etchberger said. “It's so boring minning against the same schools.” Fr tc Fi t AF
