Javelina Javelina Hash Hash By Fred Nuesch, Coordinator of Athletic External By Fred Nuesch, Coordinator of Athletic External Affairs ontinued from Page 3 THIS WEEKEND’S FOOTBALL game between the Javelinas and West Texas &M will have a 7:05 p.m. start time, five minutes later than on the schedules. The game will be televised live to the West Texas area and that brought a need for he five-minute difference in the kickoff. THE JAVELINA FANS have turned out in support of their football team in umbers that are impressive even by NCAA Division I standards. The 15,550 crowd at the last home game was by far the best at a Lone Star onference game at that stage of the season. And this weekend’s game with West Texas A&M and a Nov. 6 matchup with idwestern State are expected to have comparable figures. The second largest crowd had been 10,111 at a West Texas A&M game in anyon. Midwestern had drawn 8,567 and 8,127 for home games, Central Oklahoma had ,425 for a game in Edmond and Abilene Christian had 8,325 and 7,836 for home ppearances. The Javelinas had 8,000 for a home game with Texas A&M-Commerce that was played in a pouring rain. A Rice-SMU game two weeks ago drew 14,981 in Houston. And the biggest home game turnout for Texas State had been 13,742, for S.F. Austin 13,281 and Sam Houston State 8,030. North Texas’ largest draw had been 17,015. SPEAKING OF LARGE crowds. This weekend’s homecoming matchup with West Texas A&M should attract a turnout much like the Abilene Christian contest. The Javelina athletic ticket office is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m.-5 p.m. and on Saturday when there is a home game, the office is open from 9 a.m.oon. The ticket office is located in McCulley Hall on the east side of Javelina Stadium.

Stadium gates open at 5:30 p.m. Long lines formed at the southeastern and west side ticket booths prior to the CU game. Fans can prevent standing in the lines by purchasing tickets in advance.

Entering this week and past the midway point of the fall season, there have been o football or volleyball regional ratings in NCAA Division II. There should have been rankings in each after the first three or four games and atches of the season. THE GREEN BAY Packer website posted an interview with Al Harris last week nd although he wouldn’t predict a date he would be able to return to the team’s ineup, he did sound optimistic and upbeat. Harris, who was a defensive back with the Javelina football team in 1995 and 996, has been sidelined since last November with a leg injury. He is one of the top defensive backs in the NFL. Harris said he “feels good…awesome” but would leave it up to the Packer raining staff to determine when he is ready to return to the field. FORMER JAVELINA HEAD baseball coach Russell Stockton has been named an assistant baseball coach at Houston Baptist.
