Texans
Crush
Quakers
44-14
in Ohio
The scoring was not over as
Albeit Martinez had a flight plan of
his own. He cleared the run way
once more for Hamilton on on a 54-
yard scoring pass that pushed the
lead to 21.
With 5:02 left in the second
quarter Brandon Johnson put his foot
into the pig skin for a 37-yard score
to boost the Texan lead three more.
The trip was not over as with
just 2:50 left in the half, Hering put
his name on the map with an option
keeper. With that score the Texans
took their 31-7 lead into the locker
room.
The second half was much of
the same-all Texans. They were
able to complete their trip with two
more scores. Simpson plunged in
from the one and Lonzo Anderson
added a nine-yard run to finish the

I"i&mmifw,
Texan Dusty Baker came up with six tackles including a
quarterback sack. For the afternoon the Texans rambled
for 44 points and only allowing 14. The Texan offense put
up some great statistics with 207 yards passing and 231-
yards rushing. This week the Texans will travel to Abilene
to battle Hardin Simmons. Photo by Mary Anne Foreman
scoring at 44-14, giving the Texans
iliier second win in as many tries.
Defensively the Texans played
superb, holding Wilmington to just
fourteen points. Dusty Baker led the
way grabbing six tackles and one
quarterback sack. Brian Lewis and
Eddie Washington each had two
sacks and the entire secondary held
Wilmington to just 63 yards in pass-
ing.
Offensively the Texans rolled
up 207 yards passing and 231 yards
rushing.
Albert Martinez had the hot
hand, completing five of five passes
for 103 yards and one touchdown.
Clifford Doss led all rushers with 77
yards on ten attempts. Walter Fa-
vors led all receptions with four
catches for 80 yards.
"We need to go to Ohio more
often," Coach Hal McAfee said. "It
was a great trip and we played well.
I was worried we would not be able
to start quick, but we scored three
times in the first quarter, " McAfee
added.
"The trip was great because
some of the players were able to get
with some of the people that support
them that they don't know very well."
This Saturday the Texans will
take to the road once more to crack
heads with the top team in the TIAA,
Hardin Simmons. Hardin Simmons
is 4-2 on the season and 3-0 in TIAA
play.
The Texans, now 2-4 on the
season, will look to nail down their
third consecutive win. If the Texans
knock off Hardin Simmons and then
Midwestern, they could prevent any
NAIA Division II Texas team from
going to the playoffs. And if the
Texans win their next four games
they can possibly get back into the
top twenty five and finish as the top
NAIA Division II Texas team.
Game time will be 2 p.m. this
Saturday in Abilene.
New
conference
falls
through
Officials from four univerisites
meeting in Dallas to discuss the
formation of an athletic conference
reached a consensus that there was
an insufficient number of
institutions with common athletic
interests to form a new conference.
Athletic directors and officials
from Midwestern State University,
Tarleton State University, West
Texas State University, and Western
New Mexico University were in
attendance. The g up concluded
that each school s..ould begin to
form its own future plan for
athletics.
Tarleton State University
President Dr. Dennis McCabe
announced Tarleton will continue to
compete for the foreseeable future as
an independent member of the
National Association of
Intercollegiate Athletics in District
VIII. Expressing some
disappointment in the outcome of
this effort, he indicated that
representatives from several schools
worked hard to find the necessary
common ground to form a new
athletic conference.
"In the final analysis, there were
too many high hurdles to clear even
though several schools indicated the
need for a new conference," Dr.
McCabe said. "Some of the issues
which created difficulties included
geographical distances between
universities, providing athletic
scholarships or not, and lack of
advantages for leaving current
conference arrangements."
According to McCabe, Tarleton
is satisfied wi h its current
independent status, but
acknowledges the importance of
keeping options open for further
exploratory discussions.

•Editor in Chief

Yeater was second in the first round
of calf roping with a 10.6 second
catch, but reeieved a no time in the
finals.
Steer wrestler Josh Allen ended
up second in the' average after win-
ning the finals with a 4.7 second run
and was third in the first round with
a 4.8 second run.
Wayne Churchill and his Ver-
non Junior College partner Jason
Sloan, placed third in the average of
team roping with a 7.6 run in the
short go and a 9.4 in the finals.
Also in team roping Scott Meek
and J.J. Hampton placed fourth in
the average.
• In goat tying, Mitzie Mayes split
first in the average after placing
second in the short round with a time
of 8.5 and third in the finals with a
7.9.
Janna^Eddleman placed fourth
in the average of barrel racing and
Schelli Walls was fourth in the aver-
age of break away roping.
Not all events were successful
for Tarleton, however, and a prob-
lem arose in the bull riding. After
being the only bull rider to qualifiy
for the finals, TSU's Ranall Thornton
was injured after being stepped on
by a bull.
Thornton, a former bull riding
champion of the College National
Finals Rodeo, broke a rib in the
accident and is expected to miss the
last rodeo of the fall semester but
will return to NIRA competition in
the spring.
The next NIRA rodeo for Tarle-
ton will be Oct 31 - Nov. 3 as the
team travels to Lubbock for the Texas
Tech University rodeo.
TSU cross country
sparkles in Abilene
By Roderick Richardson
Reporter
The Tarleton cross country
track team made an impressive
performance at Abilene Christian
University's track meet held
Saturday. Both the men's and
women's teams finished in third
place overall.
"Both teams did an excellent
job at ACU," said Coach Rosales
of the TSU cross country team
"They have greatly improved on
their time."
Linda Garcia led the TSU
women's team to third place as
she improved the TSU record with
a time of 18:55 in a 3 mile
distance. Mario Barajas was the
men's leader of the team as he
took sixth place in the 10
kilometer run.
On Oct. 19, Tarleton will
travel to the University of Dallas
to run in their cross country meet.
The meet will have a lot of tough
countryside to run in, but Tarleton
needs meets like this to prepare to
win district eompitions, Rosales
said.
"I believe that we are on the
right track to win it (the district
meet). We are a close second to
Lubbock Christian, this year's de-
fending champs. If we continue
to do good, then we have a good
shot of winning it all," Rosales
said.
