MOTORCYCLE IRVING (AP) — Dallas Stars coach Ken Hitchcock is so giddy over winning the Stanley Cup that he is already talking about another championship — and another after that. “As long as we’ve got one of these, why not make it two? Aw, let's go ^23 for three,” Hitchcock told 20,000 fans at a pep rally Monday. ^ Winning two more titles is an ambitious goal for a franchise that waited an NHL-record 32 years for its first crown. The wait ended early Sunday with a six-game vic tory over the Buffalo Sabres. The Stars can hope for more titles because all of their key play ers — Mike Modano, Brett Hull, Joe Nieuwendyk and Ed Belfour — will be back next season, and some for even longer. “I think everybody how difficult it is to i we’re going to have a tel nucleus back next v-f there’s no reason whyi make a run at it . Nieuwendyk, i- season MVP, ^ will be a chalk Detroit did it,” The Red Wit NHL champs ii and 1998, and the Pit, Penguins repeated in y The last team to win te | row was the NewYorkii \ who actually won fow from 1980-83. Dallas’ toughest ct j might be finding the pro:: vation. The teamwasdr. year to get a first chait: for title-less stars Modt and Belfour.

Continued from Page 3 Coming back for his senior year, the goal that John and the Aggies set was to make it to Omaha and the College World Series. The Aggies realized that goal with John as the co-captain and emotional leader of a team that finished with the third-best record in A&M history. In 70 games, John batted .363 with 10 home runs and 54 RBIs. For his performance on the year, his teammates selected him as the Marion Pugh Most Valuable Player. When the team finished up their season in Omaha, John said it was the proudest moment in his life. “Being a senior, it was the ideal way to go out,” John said. “It was something that I will never forget. I wish that every college player got a chance to do that, but I know that 1 was one of the lucky ones. Even though we lost, just being up there was great. ” Now that his career at A&M is over, John has begun his career with the Padres, playing with their Single-A affiliate, the Fort Wayne Wizards, while most of San Diego’s draft picks go to either a rookie league or a short-season league. Not long after arriviqW Wayne Monday, he pl; ; 1 his first professional ^ I going 0-3 at the plate.,t he has not gotten off tot of starts, John said th; . thoroughly looking for his professional career “I've only been her:® couple of days, and I r love it,” John said. “If:I® nice.

Offensively, Schumacher had a strong season. In addition to his team-leading batting average, he also recorded 91 season hits and 11 homeruns on the season with a .425 on-base percentage. “Batting has always been my strong point,” Schumacher said. James Schumacher agreed, remembering how at age two, his son would wait with his bat for his dad to get home from work. “I would throw him pitches every night,” James Schumacher said. “I still have that bat.” Schumacher's mother, Donna Hoffmann, also remembers her son’s baseball aspirations. “From the time he was three or four he wanted to play for the New York Yankees,” Hoffmann ■ a l . < J l,.
