This week's foe
TCU changes from pass to run
By TOM COOK
Associate Sports Editor
The Texas Christian Horned Frogs have one of the top offensive weapons in the country in All-America split end Stanley Washington. They have long recognized for their passing game, but 1982 may be a year of change.
Texas Christian rolled to a 24-9 victory in its opener Saturday against Alabama State. However, in 80 offensive plays that could have been times — that's right, just eight times.
TCU coach F.A. Dry said part of the reason for keeping the ball on the ground was that Washington "got the team right and I don't want to take any chances with him."
The other reason for running the ball so much, Dry said, was TCU's aspiration to develop a respected ground game.
"We've always been recognized as a heavily passing team and now we want to make it more some." Dry said. "We hope to maintain our ground game as much as we can."
GONE ARE the record-setting passing talents of Steve Trump, who was drafted by the Denver Broncos. Not only is Stamp, who threw for nearly 4,000 yards and 28 touchdowns in 1980 and '81, but so are a couple of his
top protectors — linemen Donald Ray Richard and Steve Wilson.
So Dry employed the veer offense this season, and the Horned Frogs will bring their new weapon to Memorial Fun Saturday against the Jayhawks.
TCU responded to the deviation from their usual air attack by racking up 369 total yards against Utah State, including 284 on the ground on 72 carries.
Five TCU running backs carried the ball at least 12 times, led by Marcus Gilbert, who picked up 80 yards on 14 carries. Gilbert, a 5-foot-10, 185-pound senior, took over the starting position at tailback and will be joined in the backfield Saturday by Zane Drake, 6-1, 195-pound senior fullback.
"We've worked very hard in practice this year, and we had a much better first game that we had hoped for," said Dry, who owns a 40-61-4 collegiate coaching record. "Our backs ran well, and played a very solid football game."
IN WASHINGTON, TCU has a 5-11,
165-pound sprint who covers 49 yards
in 4.5 seconds. His ability to catch the
football was exemplified by his 49
receptions in just eight games last year.
Dry said Washington, however, was "not a one-man receiving corps.
"We have six, maybe seven, highly skilled athletes who have either played,

"But KU's running game will be different so I'm sure we're going to be tested. We've got to be able to stand up against the run."

"We have to prepare for both attacks." Fambrough said. "Washington is as good as anybody in the country, but they surprised a lot of people in their first game. They just lined up and utilized their running game. I don't know what they might do Saturday."
Dry said, "We hope to run as much as possible."

Willie Wilson led off the first inning with an infield single, U.L. Washington walked and both advanced on a passed ball. Brett knocked in Wilson with a groundout, and Hal McRae doubled home Washington, giving McRae 121 RBI for the season. McRae's records the rbi record for designated hitters established by Detroit's Rusty Staub in 1978. Frank Wahl then singled off Jim Beattie, 8-12, scoring McRae for a 3-0 lead.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — George Brett knocked in two runs with a groundout and a single as the Kansas City Royals extended their winning streak to four games with a 5-2 triumph over the Seattle Mariners last night.
Seattle got one run back in the second on consecutive singles by Rick Sweet, Dave Henderson and Todd Cruz and a run-scorning grounder by Julio Cruz, but the Royals finished off Beattie with two runs in their half of the innings.
The Royals put the game away with five runs in the first two innings, making a winner of Bill Castro, who was startling his first game since 1975. The Royals then scattered five hits over 5 1/3 innings, improving his record to 2-1.
Jerry Martin walked and scored on Cesar Geronimo's double. Geronimo moved to third on a single by Washington. Brett then singled, scoring Geronimo.

The victory was the fifth straight for California, which remained one game behind Kansas City in the American League West.
DeCinces gave the Angels a lead in the first innning when he singed home Brian Downing. Downing singled off Dennis Lamp, 9-8, and moved to second on an infield out. With two out, Reggie Jackson was intentionally walked and DeCinces followed with a single to center. When the ball got past center fielder Rudy Law for an error, Jackson also scored.
At Chicago, Doug DeCines drove in one run and scored another, and Bruce Kison scattered seven hits as they outscored the Bulls 109-76 victory over the Chicago White Sox.
Seattle chased Castro in the sixth when Bruce Bochte doubled, took third on a wild pitch and scored on a groundout by Richie Zisk. Bob Kuff relieved Castro and loaded the bases for the Giants, who ended an innning-end double play. Tuffs poised his first major-league save, allowing one hit over the final 3/2 innings.
