Cards try to even record
against ’Jacks Saturday
By LARRY GOING
of the UP staff
NACOGDOCHES—Lamar Univeristy,
recovering from physical and mental bruises,
hopes to regain its offensive power here
tomorrow night when they take on defensive-
minded Stephen F. Austin State University in
Lumberjack Stadium.
What started out to be the beginning of a
promising year for LU in their 41-8 season
opener against Texas Southern, Houston, a
month ago has been one of a disarray since.
The Redbirds have dropped games to
Baylor, Waco, by a 42-7 count and to Drake,
Des Moines, Iowa, 38-7, on consecutive
weekends. Their offensive output against the
two teams have totaled 87 yards on the
ground, while Lamar rushed for 234 yards
against TSU.
Against the Lumberjacks, the Cardinals
will be opposing a team that allowed only six
yards rushing and four first downs in the
second half of its 7-3 win over Henderson
State, Arkadelphia, Ark., here last week. In
fact, the SFA defensive unit accounted for the
game’s only touchdown when strong safety
Rickey Cosper returned an interception seven
yards on the second play of the fourth quar-
ter.
The Lumberjacks, who are 1-1 on the year,
suffered an opening night loss to Nor-
thwestern Louisiana, Natchitoches, 22-3. The
Indians are currently ranked in the Division I-
AA national polls.
Like Lamar, the ‘Jacks had a complete tur-
naround in their football program in 1979,
going from a losing season to an 8-3 year.
The Cards leads the series between the two
schools 10-4, but they have only met once sin-
ce Lamar left the Lone Star Conference in
1964. In that last meeting in Beaumont in 1978,
the Birds scored late in the game to pull off a
23-16 win.
Testing the Lumberjacks' defense will be
quarterback Ray Campbell, Livingston fresh-
man. In his first collegiate start two weeks
ago, the 6-3, 196-pounder completed 17-of-26
passes for 220 yards and one touchdown in the
loss to Drake.
Campbell has a talented group of receivers
to work with as tight end Alfred Mask,
Crockett senior (12 catches for 155 yards),
flanker Sam Choice, Tyler senior (7 for 145),
and running back Ben Booker, Beaumont
junior (8 for 52), all rank among the receiving
leaders in the Southland Conference.
After giving up more than 1,000 yards in
total offense to Baylor (656) and Drake (461),
the Cardinal defense received a minor
shakedown during the open week last week.
Jackie Harris (6-0, 190), Buna freshman,
will be the likely starter at the weakside end,
while Justin Eicher (6-0, 208), Port Neches
junior, has replaced Mark Clemons, Tyler
sophomore, at strongside linebacker, and
James Price (5-10, 184), Dallas sophomore,
has moved from right cornerback to weakside
linebacker where he may replace previous
starter Charles Broussard, Cleveland
sophomore.
On the defensive line, Steve Golston (6-3,
238), Texarkana sophomore, may replace
Calvin Roberson, Wadsworth senior, at
tackle. Roberson, the Defensive Player of the
Week in the Drake game, has been slow
recovering from a bruised shoulder.
One, if not the, biggest threat the Cardinal
defense will have to cope with tomorrow night
is SFA tailback Paul Hood. Hood, a 5-10, 180-
pound senior, earned NAIA All-America
honor in 1979 by rushing for 1,332 yards and 17
touchdowns. He had 134 yards on 28 carries
against Henderson State last week after being
held to just 39 yards in the opener against
Northwest Louisiana.
Another potential threat for the Cards is
SFA’s Bill Cosper, brother of Rickey, who
plays on defense. The 6-5, 230-pound tight end
caught 19 passes for 371 yards and two touch-
downs last season.
Jimmy Kegler operates from the fullback
slot, and Ronnie Perkins is the wide receiver,
a position that is quite young in experience.
Gary Jentz is the No. 1 signal-caller for the
‘Jacks. The 6-1, 178-pound junior has already
completed 14-of-37 passes for 151 yards in
SFA's first two games this season.
The front line will consist of Danny Bogar
(6-3, 234) at strongside tackle and Brad Adud-
dell (6-0, 231) at strongside guard. The
weakside lineman are Ruben Saenz at tackle
and Chris Stewart (6-4, 221) at guard. Myron
Anderson anchors the line at center.
Defensively, the Lumberjacks line up with
Ben Watts (6-3, 245) and Mike Hancock (6-5,
243) at the tackles and Lester Melontree (6-6,
190) and Mark Ehlers (6-0,219) at ends.
Gene Hicks, who also had an interception
against Henderson State last week, is the
strongside linebacker, while Donnie Dinges
(6-0, 220) works from the middle linebacker
slot, and Roger Adams is the weakside
linebacker.
The secondary sets up with Barry Ford and
Gifford Coles at cornerback, Rickey Cosper
at strong safety and Larry Thompson at free
safety.
Fem linksters

of the UP staff
The Lamar men’s golf team finished
seventh at the eleven-team Morton
Braswell Intercollegiate golf tournament,
held Monday and Tuesday at the par 71
Shreveport Country Club in Sheveport, La.
Brad Jones of Texas A&M, College
Station, was the medalist with a 214 total,
1-over-par, in second place was Jones'
teammate, Danny Briggs, who fired a 3-
over-par 216.
The Aggies also took the team title by a
whopping 10 shots with a total of 880. Cen-
tenary College, Shreveport La., was
second with 890, followed by Louisiana
State University, Baton Rouge, 896;
University of Houston, 900; and rounding
out the top five was the University of
Texas, Austin, with a two-day total of 905.
Texas Christian University, Fort Worth,
was sixth with 906 and Lamar was seventh
with a 922.
Jimmy Walker, Sour Lake senior, car-
ved out rounds of 79-76-73 to give him a 54
hole total of 228, which was low for Lamar.
Ronnie Black, Lovington, N.M., senior,
was next with a 230 total on rounds of 75-76-
79.
Others competing for the Cardinals and
their totals were Kent Hilburn, Sour Lake
senior, 230; Billy Bruno, Sour Lake fresh-
man, 234; and Ed Depperschmidt, junior
transfer from McClennan Junior College,
Waco, 248.
Mike Michalka, Sour Lake senior, who
served as team sponsor at Shreveport, was
rather disappointed with the team's initial
performance.
‘‘This was our first tournament of the
year,” Michalka said. "Some of the other
teams had already played in two. So while
we didn't play very well, I think that this
team can really come on later in the
season and begin to challenge for some of
these team championships.”
Michalka also noted that Dep-
perschmidt’s score was very misleading.
“Ed hasn't played in a tournament for
about four months and it hurt him,”
Michalka said. “He has been {flaying just
super and then when he got up to
Shreveport he lost his confidence in his
putting. That alone cost him at least five
shots a round.
“He’s a young player with an abundance
of talent and I look for him along with this
team to improve steadily throughout the
rest of the year.”
The next tournament for the linksters
will be the Pan American Fall Invitational
in Brownsville, Oct. 29-31.

The Lady Cards volleyball
team will host its annual In-
vitational Volleyball Tour-
nament Friday and Satur-
day in the Women’s Gym.
The Cards will enter play,
ranked fifth in the state.
Their record for the year is
11-13.
“I'm expecting to finish
first in pool play this
weekend,” volleyball coach
Linda Wills said. "And I an-
ticipate having to play either
Texas A&M (College
Station) or Texas (Austin) in
the semifinals. We’ll have to
play tough to beat them and
advance to the finals, but we
are capable of doing it.”
Other teams scheduled to
compete in the tournament
include the University of
New Orleans; Texas
Woman’s University, Den-
ton; Alvin Community
College; North Texas State,
Denton; Rice University,
Houston; and West Texas
State, Canyon.
The defending champions
of the tournament will not be
participating this time
around because of a
previous committment.
They will be back next year.
Play will begin Friday af-
ternoon and continue
through Saturday evening
with finals at 5 p.m. on
Saturday.
The Lady Cards will be
playing in McDonald Gym
throughout Friday’s com-
petition. They are scheduled
for games at 2 p.m. against
Alvin Community College, 3
p.m. with North Texas; and
7 p.m. with New Orleans.
' The format used in the
tourney will be a 2-out-of-3
games series in the early
rounds, and a 3-out-of-5 mat-
ch in the finals.
First round action starts a
3 p.m. today with the
Lamar-Alvin contest in Mc-
Donald Gym and the NTSU-
New Orleans match in the
Women’s Gym, and will con-
tinue through Saturday mor-
ning.

Lamar skis to fourth
Polo meet scheduled
The Lamar water polo
club will host a tournament
Saturday beginning at 10
a.m. at the outdoor pool by
the Women's Gym.
It will be a three-team
tourney, composed of LU,
Louisiana State, Baton
Rouge; and Texas a9m,
College Station.
The LU tourney will be
the first of a series of home
games that the club has on
its agenda for this year.
The first game of the
year was held last weekend
in Dallas where they
played Sourthern
Methodist University and
lost by a 22-0 score.
The rules of the game
somewhat follow those of
volleyball in the form of
play, but with different
scoring, according to J.
Landis Buckner, Dallas
junior.
Two nets, similiar to
those used in soccer, are at
both ends of the pool, and a
shot may be taken from
anywhere in the water. The
main objective, however, is
to keep the ball above
water at all times.
Both teams have seven
players to a side, according
to Buckner, and play four
quarters lasting ap-
proximately 15 minutes
each. Each goal scored is
worth one point.
Fred Foreman, coach at
the water polo club, cited
inexperience as the reason
for the lopsided score, with
only three returnees from
last year’s squad playing,
but the fact that the
Mustangs are ranked No. 5
in the nation didn’t offer
much consolation.
“With only three retur-
ning starters, this team, in
my opinion, has a fine
degree of potential,"
Foreman said.
In the tourney tomorrow,
the three teams will use a
playoff format, a technique
not commonly used in
regular play.
MONROE, La.—The
Lamar water ski team
finished fourth in the team
standings last weekend at
the Northeast Louisiana
University ski tournament
held here.
It was the last tourney the
team had on their fall
semester agenda. They are
now preparing for the in-
tercollegiate nationals,
which will be held in two
weeks at Winter Haven, Fla.
The ski team participated
in three events—slalom,
trick and jump.
In the women’s slalom,
Patti Jenkins, Lumberton
junior, scored 28 buoys and
four buoys at 34 miles per
hour, while Lisa Bordelon,
Port Neches sophomore,
scored one buoy at 22 mph.
For the men, Doug John-
son, Winnie sophomore,
scored 22 buoys, four of
them at 34 mph, while Chris
Wolfe, Port Arthur
sophomore, scored 16Vi
buoys, 4i/j at 32 mph.
Robert Bordes, Beaumont
sophomore, added 3 */j buoys
at 28 mph.
In the trick event, Jenkins
scored 280 points in her trick
run, while Terri Fontenot,
Vidor sophomore, and Bor-
delon were unsuccessful in
their runs. Johnson scored
480 points in his run for the
men, with Bordes added 180
and Wolfe collecting 90.
Jenkins had jumps of 76
and 77 feet, respectively, in
the jumping event. Johnson
jumped 56 feet and Wolfe
had a 45-foot jump in three
attempts.
Other teams participating
in the NLU tourney were
Baylor, Waco; University of
Texas, Austin; Nicholls
State, Thibodaux, La.; and
Northwest Louisiana, Nat-
chitoches.
