Hernandez: A&M’s Big 12 initiation
Continued from Page 3
This is only the tip of the iceberg. The Big 12
brings not only the challenge of tougher competi
tion, but it raises an entirely new isssue.
The wide spectrum of sports played at the
varsity level in the
Big 8 means the in
coming SWC schools
must consider ex
panding the number
of sports they offer.
Can you ever
imagine watching
A&M Gymnastics,
the Aggie Ski Team
"They only say this year will be one of
the toughest in recent memory, and
it's only going to get harder in years
to come."
or the Fightin’ Texas Aggie Wrestling team?
These are sports the Athletic Department may
have to consider adopting in order to compete
alongside its Big 12 buddies.
Back on the football front, critics, re
porters, coaches and fans can’t agree on what
to expect of the inaugural Big 12 season.
They only say this year will be one of the tough
est in recent memory, and it’s only going to get
harder in years to come.
A&M won’t roll over and die in the Big 12,
but I think A&M needs the boost in competi
tion if it ever wants to be considered a true
national powerhouse.
The Aggies’ recruiting
should improve in years to
come, as well as their'
recognition across the
country.
However, our school
needs to be prepared for
sharing the spotlight
with 11 other schools that
want to be the king of the
Officer accused in Irvin
plot requests lower bail
mountain as much as we do.
Texas A&M is carrying into the Big 12 a re
cent tradition of success, and we can’t forget that
when times are rough.
With the teams that we will be facing, it’s just
going to be that much sweeter when we do reach
the top.

DALLAS (AP) — The attor
ney for a police officer accused of
trying to solicit the murder of
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver
Michael Irvin said he would be
in court Monday seeking to re
duce his $252,500 bail.
“He’s not a danger to himself
or others,” Frank Perez, himself a
former Dallas police officer, said
of jailed officer Johnnie Hernan
dez, 28. Perez also said he would
seek to learn more about the evi
dence against his client.
Hernandez has been in the
Lew Sterrett Criminal Justice
Center since Thursday, a day af
ter police said he paid an under
cover officer, posing as a would-
be hitman, $2,960 as a down
payment for Irvin’s murder.
A fourth day of jury selection
was scheduled Monday in Irvin’s
trial on drug charges that arose
from a police raid on a motel
room four months ago.
State District Judge Manny
Alvarez refused Friday to de
clare a mistrial because of Her
nandez’s arrest, saying the lat
est events have nothing to do
with whether Irvin possessed
drugs in early March.
Law enforcement sources have
said Hernandez sought Irvin’s
death because he believed that
the football star had repeatedly
threatened Hernandez’s girlfriend
with violence if she testified
against him in his drug trial.
The girlfriend, Rachelle Marie
Smith, 24, dated Hernandez in
Denver and moved with him to
Dallas after he joined the Dallas
Police Department in 1991.
Like two women who were in
a motel room with Irvin at the
time of a police raid in the early
morning hours of March 4, she
is a topless
dancer.
Drugs were
found in the
room, resulting
in an indict
ment against
Irvin, 30; An
gela Rene
Beck, 22; and
Jasmine Jen-
nipher Nab-
wangu, 22. Al
fredo Roberts,
IRVIN
Irvin’s business partner and for
mer teammate, also was in the
room, but wasn’t charged.
Earlier in the year, Ms. Smith
put Ms. Beck up for a month in
the Cedar Hill house she shared
with Hernandez. Through his
girlfriend’s involvement, Her
nandez also became a subpoe
naed witness in Irvin’s drug
case, law enforcement sources
have said.
The district attorney’s office
apparently has taken the allega
tion that Irvin threatened Ms.
Smith seriously enough to con
duct a witness-tampering in
quiry and to consider retaliation
charges against him, law en-

BOSTON (AP) — Dominique
Dawes soared into the lead with
a high-flying uneven bars rou
tine at Sunday’s Olympic gym
nastics trials, and not even a few
mistakes on the floor were
enough to bring her down.
By winning the trials with
78.157 points, the 19-year-old
made her second Olympic squad.
Kerri Strug, another 1992 veter
an, finished second with 78.108.
“I’m very pleased, it’s a dream
come true to be a two-time
Olympian,” Strug said.
Jaycie Phelps, Amy Chow and
Amanda Borden, who just
missed the 1992 squad, also
made the team that will compete
in Atlanta. Shannon Miller and
Dominique Moceanu, who were
injured and couldn’t compete,
also made the team.
Dawes’ bar routine, which
had her soaring high over the
top bar, earned her a 9.95, which
tied Strug’s effort on the vault
for high score of the night and
gave her the lead. Dawes was
grinning as soon as her feet hit
the mat, then she turned and
waved to the roaring crowd that
was behind her all night.
But Dawes put a little too
much enthusiasm into her floor
routine, stepping out of bounds
on two tumbling passes, an auto
matic .20 deduction. Her mark of
9.612 was enough to keep a slim
lead over Strug going into the fi
nal event.
After finishing the compul-
sories in third place, Strug was
practically flawless Sunday. She
opened with a near perfect vault
that earned her a 9.95, the high
est score of the night. Coach
Bela Karolyi grabbed her in a
bear hug afterward, before she
ran off with television cameras
chasing her.
She got the crowd rocking
with her floor routine, grinning
as she swayed and twisted to a
Stray Cats medley. She flew
across the mat on her tumbling
passes, drawing appreciative
cheers from the crowd, which
gave her a standing ovation
when she finished.
Karolyi was so excited by
her routine he pushed his wife
and fellow coach, Martha, as
Strug finished.
Phelps started the night in
first place, but a disastrous land
ing on her beam routine dropped
her to third. She sprawled across
the mat before finally somer
saulting backward.
She walked off the stage
with her head down and into
the arms of coach Mary Lee
Tracy, who gave her some en
couragement.
Phelps showed no reaction
when her score of 9.287 was an
nounced, and sat on the side
lines for the rest of the rotation.
Moceanu has a four-inch
stress fracture in her right leg,
and doctors said she could break
it if she competed in the trials.
Miller has tendinitis in her left
wrist. Both must be healthy by
July 19, two days before compe
tition starts.

HOUSTON (AP) — Darryl
Kile pitched a six-hitter and John
Cangelosi’s two-run single high
lighted Houston’s six-run fourth
inning as the Astros beat the New
York Mets 9-3 on Sunday.
The Astros, who have won
four of their last five, remained
tied with St. Louis for first place
in the Central Division.
Kile (7-5) didn’t allow a hit un
til the fifth when Jeff Kent sin
gled off the glove of third base-
man Orlando Miller with no outs.
Kile struck out seven and walked
one in his first win since May 27.
Cangelosi had three RBIs and
stole two bases, on consecutive
pitches, in the fourth off starter
Jason Isringhausen (4-10).
Houston started the scoring in
the fourth when James Mouton
and Ricky Gutierrez hit consecu
tive singles. A flyout moved both
runners up and, one out later,
Cangelosi singled to make it 2-0.
Cangelosi then stole second
and third, the first steal when
Isringhausen got in the way of
catcher Todd
Hundley’s
throw to sec
ond. Craig Big-
gio’s single
scored Can
gelosi, and Jeff
Bagwell fol
lowed with a
walk.
Mets center
fielder Lance
Johnson then
lost Derek
KILE
Bell’s high fly, letting it drop
for a double that scored Biggio
and Bagwell. After Bell stole
third, Miller singled him home
for a 6-0 lead.
The Astros added two in the
fifth. Gutierrez led off with a
double and scored when Randy
Knorr singled.
After Dave Mlicki relieved Is
ringhausen, Knorr went to sec
ond on Kile’s sacrifice bunt and
to third on a wild pitch. Can
gelosi then made it 8-0 with a
single that scored Knorr.
Isringhausen allowed eight
runs in four-plus innings. He
gave up 10 hits, walked five and
threw two wild pitches.
The Mets scored in the sixth
when Edgardo Alfonzo led off
with a single, moved to third on
Johnson’s double and scored on
Jose Vizcaino’s sacrifice fly.
Bernard Gilkey singled home
Johnson for the Mets’ second run.
The Astrodome attendance of
35,981 was well above the sea
son average of 23,227.

SEATTLE (AP) — Sterling Hitchcock was staked
to an early four-run lead and Edgar Martinez hit
two more doubles Sunday, leading the Seattle
Mariners to a 4-3 win over the Texas Rangers.
By winning two out of three games in the week
end series, the Mariners cut first-place Texas’ lead
to five games in the AL West.
Hitchcock (7-3) allowed only one hit through
five innings before giving up three runs and four
hits in the sixth.
Bobby Ayala replaced Hitchcock with runners
at second and third and two outs in the seventh,
and got Darryl Hamilton to hit a comebacker to
end the inning.
Ayala pitched the eighth and Norm Charlton
worked the ninth for his 13th save. Charlton put
two runners on, but got Kevin Elster to pop out to
end the game.
Martinez went 3-for-5 and hit two doubles, giv
ing him a major-league leading 39 this season. He
also leads the majors with 59 extra-base hits.
Rangers manager Johnny Oates wasn't around
at the finish. Home plate umpire Ted Barrett
ejected Oates for arguing from the dugout with
Rene Gonzales batting in the third. It was Oates’
first ejection of the season.
The Mariners got their 4-0 lead on Edgar Mar
tinez’s RBI double in the first inning off Bobby
Witt (7-7), Paul Sorrento’s run-scoring single in
the third and, Alex Rodriguez’s RBI infield single
and Jay Buhner’s sacrifice fly in the fourth.
In the Texas sixth, Hamilton had a two-run sin
gle and Juan Gonzalez added an RBI single.
Hitchcock gave up three runs and six hits in 6
2-3 innings. Witt went six innings, allowing four
runs and 11 hits.

Ms. Smith spoke Saturday on
the condition that she be asked
no questions about Irvin’s or
Hernandez’s criminal cases. As a
subpoenaed witness in Irvin's
trial, she is subject to a gag or
der that prevents her from dis
cussing any aspect of the case.
“I believe in him, definitely,
100 percent,” she said.
“John’s a good guy, and I just
don’t want people getting the
wrong idea. I just want people to
know I believe in Johnnie and
that I love him. Everyone just
has to keep an open mind. We’ll
have our day in court.”
Hernandez resigned as a po
liceman after his arrest Thurs
day. His brother, Kenneth, 30,
who joined the Dallas Police De
partment about a year after his
brother did, said Saturday he
was just getting over the shock
of seeing his younger brother led
to a jail cell.
“I believe in him. I’ll stick
with him to the end,” the offi
cer said.
“You don’t turn your back on
family. We’re getting ready for a
big fight,” his brother said.
