SPORTS NOTEBOOK
Men's lacrosse wins
A&M tournament
The men's club lacrosse team
overcame cold, wet conditions last
weekend to win the Texas A&M
University Fall Classic.
Defense was the key for the
Owls, as they held their oppo-
nents to under seven goals in all
three games. Led by three goals
from junior midfielder Chris
Glass, the Owls opened the tour-
nament with an easy 12-3 win over
Sam Houston State University.
The second game of the day
again saw Rice get out to an early
lead, this time against Southwest
Texas State University. The Rice
offense could not put the game
away despite numerous opportu-
nities, but the Owl defense held
the Bobcat attack at bay to secure
an 8-6 victory.
In Sunday's championship
game, Rice took on Trinity Univer-
sity. Senior attackman Brian Nash
scored two goals to give Rice a 5-0
halftimelead, and the Owl defense
held on for a 5-3 win.
Glass, who scored six goals and
had six assists, was named the
tournament's most valuable offen-
sive player.
The Owls will open the spring
season by scrimmaging Stephen
F. Austin State University Jan. 27.
Rice Stadium named
potential Games venue
Rice Stadium has been named
one of four soccer venues for
Houston's 2012 Olympic bid,
which will be delivered to the
United States Olympic Commit-
tee Dec. 15.
The other three locations include
Kyle Field in College Station, Royal-
Memorial Stadium in Austin and
the Alamodome in San Antonio.
Eight other U.S. cities are ex-
pected to meet the proposal bid
deadline. 'l"he USOC will first name
four finalists, and then in 2002 will
select one city to present as its
candidate to the International
Olympic Committee.
Recruits commit to
golf, football, tennis
Three high school athletes
have said they will continue their
careers next year as Owls.
The golf team signed Matt
Toohey of Fair Oaks Ranch, a third-
team all-state pick last year.
"He's a long hitter with a good
short game, and he makes a lot of
birdies," Rice head coach Clay
Homan said. "In his last tournament,
he made eight birdies and two
eagles."
The Houston Chronicle re-
ported Monday that quarterback
Kevin Ford from Madisonville,
Tex. verbally committed to the
football team this week. Ford, who
racked up 1,500 yards of total of-
fense this season, was District 23-
3A's most valuable player.
The Chronicle also reported
that the women's tennis team
signed Erika VillalobosofSanJose,
Costa Rica. Villalobos is currently
the top-ranked player in Central
America in the 16-18 age bracket.

The Passat
Voted a Consumers Digest Best Buy for 2000.
(If this were in color, you'd see it blushing.)
BEST BUY
A 1.8-liter, turbocharged, four-cylinder engine is one thing. But add
a Passat to it and good things start to happen. Good things, like
corners, straight-aways, straight-aways with corners.
