NCAA Championship
Golfers Drive for Highest Goal
During the first few weeks of
the summer vacation, five Eagle
golfers will concentrate on one
objective: an NCAA title.
Bill Garrett, Bobby Greenwood,
Frank Luke, Klgie Seamster and
Don Wilson plan to spend most
of their time playing in re-
gional matches or on the practice
tee in preparation for the NCAA
tournament June 18-2:! in Dur-
ham, N.C.
GAMtKTT AND LVKI are
now playing in the 53rd annual
Texas State Amateur Tourna-
ment in Corpus Christi. Luke
edged co-medalist Henry Rich-
ards of Jackshoro 2 and 1, and
Garrett beat Jim Greenwood of
Houston t> and 5 in first-round
championship flight matches.
Coach Herb Ferrill said that
the team was playing its best
golf at the end of the season
and hopes that the layoff be-
t'ure the Durham contest will give
the players a chancr t« further
test their shots under tourna-
ment conditions.
HEME'S A RUNDOWN on the
spring performances of the five
players who will represent North
Texas in the NCAA—a tourna-
ment that officially bestows
the rank of top team in collegiate
golf on the winner:
Garrett, the team captain, led
the Eagle attack in dual match
play with an 11-1-1 record. His
low round of the season was a
4-under-par !8 in the second
round of the Border Olympics
which aided the team in setting
an 18-hole record of l(i under
par.
Greenwood had the lowest
stroke average (71.9 for 29
roundel and the most rounds of
par or better, 13. The junior
All-America candidate won in-
dividual honors at the South-
western Recreation after a play-
off with Luke and tied for meda-
list in the Missouri Valley Con-
ference tournament.
LIKE, WHO I'ERH AI'S
would win the George Bayer
Long Knocker Award on the
team, tied Garrett for second
best shot average. 72.(i for 25
rounds. His top tournament per-
formances were an even-par 140
in the Southwestern Recreation,
a 1-over-par 145 at the Galves-
ton Invitational, and a fourth
place finish in the MVC.
Sea meter's best round was a
Lone Flock Participant
To Run in NCAA Meet
One chief and one Indian will
represent North Texas in Eugene,
Ore., next week at the NCAA track
and field championships.
Sprinter Bill Argo and Coach
Winton E. (I'op t Noah will attend
the June 15-J6 meet.
Argo, a Dallas junior, finished
his conference season with MVC
wins in the 100- and 220-yard dash-
es. His best times in the two events
this year are 9.5 and 21.2, respec-
tively.
Along with the honor of being
the lone team member making the
Oregon trip, Argo was elected co-
captain for the 19<!3 track and
field season. Sharing the post with
him will be David Ballauer, a dis-
cus thrower from Azle. Ballauer
was also a conference champion
in the discus event, throwing the
plate 147 feet 7 inches.

which aided his 74.5 average for
28 rounds. During one stretch,
he scored 74 in four consecutive

Eaifle as he participated in !12
competitive rounds. Included in
his 7.1.4 average were a H-under

Frosh Grab 2nd Track Title
As Bowser Sets New Mark
by MILT Z1MAN
In the Jun«' issue of Esquire, one of the magazine's
writers proposes an ingenious method of amassing a for-
tune during the major league baseball season. The plan in-
volves placing u wager on a team that is in the midst of a
winning streak.
The game is easy, anyone can play and the only re-
quirement is money. All you have to do is bet a team that
won its preceding game. Always bet the same amount of
money and hope that you have picked a team that is on a
streak.
On reading of the author's success with the "streak
theory" over the last few years, I wondered if it might be
possible to apply it to the North Texas golf team and its
chances for a title in the NCAA tournament at Durham,
N.C., June 18-2:5.
MANY OHSKKVKRS and participants of the game
will verify that most golfers actually play in definite pat-
terns. During some rounds the short putts look like .' 0
footers while at other times it seems that one could use
anything from a driver to a niblick in knocking the ball in
the cup.
Searching the record books for sup|>ort of this consecu-
tive outcome hypothesis in golf, 1 found that consistency
was certainly the theme for the NCAA championship teams
of 1940-52. They did manage to lose once in a while—one
dual match in 85 contests.
PERHAPS THE HEST indication that the streak sys-
tem could be applied to the present group of golfers is
their performance during the past season. The pattern de-
veloped early with the team establishing a 5-0-1 dual match
record and a victory in the Southwestern Recreation.
And in their last tournament the Eagles captured the
Missouri Valley Conference championship by a mere 56-
shot margin.
Has the winning streak returned and will it extend
through June 2.'}?
1 am not suggesting that everyone immediately rush
out to bet on this possibility—only :?(> holes of golf at
Durham will prove the validity of the streak theory.
The North Texas freshmen have
won the MVC Telegraphic Track
and Field Meet for the second
straight year, edging second place
Cincinnati -15',4 to 39%.
Kach school in the conference
mailed its best times and distances
to the conference office, where the
individual and team winners were
letermined by officials.
Drake ran third in the competi-
tion with 36 points, followed by
Tulsa with 26%, Wichita 10*4 and
Bradley 8.
The Kaglets scored in 12 of 1(5
events, winning four first places
and setting one conference record
and three North Texas freshman
Dick Smith AAemorial
Golfer Receives Award
Hobby Greenwood, who averaged
one over par for 29 competitive
rounds of golf, received the Dick
Smith Memorial Award as the out-
standing varsity player for 1982.
The junior letterman's name will
be engraved on the Hick Smith
Memorial plaque which was dona-
ted last year by the junior class in
remembrance of Smith, the 1901
team captain who died in an auto-
mobile accident on April 2!1, 19(51.
Coach Herb Ferrill will continue
to select a yearly winner whose
name will be engraved on one of
the remaining 10 plates on the
plaque. Smith's name appears on
the first plate for his performance
during the 19(51 season.
"The award is given to the play-
er who contributes most to the
golf team during the season," Fer-
rill said. The plaque is on ;>erman-

With his liene Littler-like swinir,
Greenwood shot his way to a scin-
tillating 71.9-stroke average for 29
rounds and a 10-.'5-0 dual match
record this spring. He led the team
with 18 rounds of pur or better.
Greenwood, a native of Cooke-
ville, Tenn., won medalist honors
in the Southwestern Recreation
after a playoff with teammate
Frank Luke and tied for the Mis-
souri Valley Conference individual
title with a 1-under-pat- 212. His
other top tournament performances
were a 7-under 281 in the Border
Olympics and a 4-under 140 in the

The other school records went to
Fox, who leaped 22-10 V6 in the
