But that which shares the life
of God
With Him surviveth all.

Aggies Beat Hornets In
Playoff To Defend CIA A
Baseball Crown
RICHMOND, Va. ? In future
preparations for championship
playoffs, A&T baseball coach
Mel Groomes may change his
usual strategy and limit his play
ers to four hours of sleep the
night before the big game.
At least, that amount of sleep
proved sufficient for the Aggies
to beat Delaware State 7-4 last
Monday night for the CIAA
title. It was A&Ts eighth cham
pionship in 15 years.
A&Ts bus broke down Sun
day night enroute from Rich
mond to Greensboro. The Ag
gies grabbed a quick snooze,
then took off for Richmond
again. It worked out Just fine.
"These kids played the way
I have been trying to get them
to play all season," said a happy
Groomes. "They Just did every
thing right. We found out what
we will have to do in the forth
coming NAIA playoffs in
Greensboro and we are looking
forward to it."
The Aggies pushed across
three runs in the top of the 10th j
inning to whip the Hornets. A&T
got a fine pitching performance
from senior David Ellison of
Laurinburg.
"The pitching of Ellison was
just great," said Groomes. "He
had only started one previous
game this season and he must
have been scared to death. He
did a fine job and also reliefers
Tyrone B olden and Wilson
Stallsworth."
The Aggies and the Hornets
split the first two games, also
played here Sunday on Parker
Field.
In the first game, freshman
catcher Charles Middleton's sin
gle in the eighth inning,
sparked a four-run rally and
A&T won 6-3. Wilson Stalls
worth picked up his eighth
straight win for the Aggies.
In the second game, Dela
ware's pitching ace Tony Du
pree yielded only two hits for
an 113 victory for the Hornets.
In the championship game,
the Aggies had overcome a 3-2
deficit in the ninth, when A&T*s
ace slugger Royal Mack tripled
home Williamson and Cum
r
mings.
Delaware tied the score with
a run in the bottom of the ninth,
but could not match the three
runs in the tenth.
Ellison, the winning pitcher,
gave up only five hits.
Even in victory, Groomes had
nothing but praise for Dela
ware State's fine pitcher Tony
Dupree, who was pitching his
third ball game (26 innings) in
three days.
"He did an outstanding job,"
said Groomes. "I really don't
see how he did It."
A&T's title marks the eighth
time in 15 seasons the Aggie*
have been declared CIAA
champions.
