In a meet that ran as smoothly
as the runners, the Texas A&M
Cross Country Team finished in
fourth place in both the men’s
and women’s brackets at the A&M
Invitational Saturday at the A&M
Golf Course.
Thirty-five universities compet
ed in this weekend’s invitational,
including the University of Texas at
San Antonio, which finished first in
the women’s division, and the Uni
versity of Texas, which finished
first in the men’s field.
Led by A&M sophomore Scott
Lengefeld, who finished second
in the men’s five-mile race, the
men’s cross country team made a
strong showing.
Senior Jerry Snider finished
fifth and sophomore Stephen
Erath finished 16th.
A&M Head Coach Greg Hinze,
while expecting a better finish,
said he was pleased with the
overall performances.
“It was a bittersweet day for
us,” Hinze said. “On each team
(men’s and women’s), we had two
of our better runners — for what
ever reasons — not have a good
day. With the number of fresh
men that I’m running this year,
we don’t have the depth to be
able to overcome that.”
Despite that lack of depth,
Hinze said he was impressed with
the freshmen runners.
“There is a pain threshold that
everybody’s got to get through,
and today the freshman really got
through it,” Hinze said. “They ran
really well and this is going to be
a good stepping stone for us for
the rest of the season and also
into next year.”
Sophomore Amy Stanberry,
who finished a disappointing
33rd in the women’s 3.1-mile
race, said she was impressed by
the women who performed well
at the meet.
“Four girls stepped up this week
and really established themselves,”
Stanberry said. “Because of this, I
am really excited for the rest of the
season, and I think that this was a
breakthrough meet as far as the
team standpoint.”
Lengefeld said he was happy

with his improvement over his
third place finish at the North
Texas Invitational Oct. 4.
“I was very pleased with my
performance today,” Lengefeld
said. “Last week, 1 finished third,
but I beat the guy who won to
day. In the first three miles, he
made a move by me and got a
six-to-seven second lead. If 1
could have covered the move, 1
felt like I had a good chance to
win today.
“Right now, I’m feeling com
fortable with myself and with re-
gionals coming around next
month, I feel really confident.”
As far as regionals are con
cerned, Hinze said he is excited
and looking for the team to make
a good showing.
“Scott has a good chance to
qualify for nationals and become
the first sophomore to accom
plish that for A&M,” Hinze said.
“As for the teams, the hard part of
our training for the year is over,
now it’s just getting sharpened up
and getting ready to race. If we do
that we will go into the meet and
end up in the top ten in the re
gion, which is what we strive for
each year."
After finishing behind the
University of Nebraska in the Big
12 Preview last week at Pebble
Creek Country Club, the Texas
A&M Women’s Golf Team is hit
ting the pavement.
The Lady Aggies have taken
their show on the road as they
travel to Lawrence, Kansas, to
compete in the Marilyn
Smith/Sunflower Invitational,
hosted by the University of
Kansas today and Tuesday.
A&M junior Jamie Hullett, who
is coming off an individual sec
ond-place finish last week, said the
team is keeping an open mind in
Kansas, after the success it experi
enced at the Big 12 Preview.
“I was looking to finish in the top
three (last week), so I was very satis
fied with my place,” Hullett said.
“Since it was at my home course, I
knew I had a good chance to do
well. We haven’t seen this course,
but it is going to be tight and long,
so we need to go in and work on
keeping our balls in play.”
A&M Head Coach Jeanne
Sutherland said she was pleased
with the performance of hem
at the Preview and looks to

“We look really good soft

Yankees advance to World Series with 64win
BALTIMORE (AP) — Absent
for 15 years, the Yankees are re
turning to what was once their
traditional October stage.
Powered by a three-homer
third inning and eight strong in
nings from pitcher Andy Pettite,
New York won its 34th American
League pennant Sunday with a 6-
4 victory over the Baltimore Ori
oles. The Yankees took the ALCS
4-1 and head to the World Series
for tiie first time since 1981.
New York closed out the best-
of-7 series with a dominating
performance reminiscent of the
great Yankees teams of the 1950s
and 60s featuring DiMaggio,
Berra, Ford, Mantle and Maris.

Jeter, Williams, Pettitte, Fielder
and Strawberry, will get a chance
