Team finishes fifth at Oregon State
By Kent Hohifeld
The Kansas女队's golf team took fifth place at the Oregon State Invitational in Corvallis, Ore.
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas' top golfer, senior Holly Reynolds, tied for second place with Oregon State's Margo Evashevski at the 13-train tournament. Reynolds recovered from a poor start after shooting a 77 on the par 72 Oregon State University golf course. She rebounded with final rounds of 74 and 72 for a total of 223.
Coach Jerry Waugh said Reynolds needed to shoot low rounds to get back in the field after her slow start.
"We played well," Reynolds said. "We showed more consistency than we have in the previous tournaments."
Reynolds said that the team members had performed about as they had expected in the tournament and that they showed improvement.
Reynolds said the competi-
Reynolds said the competition was some of the most difficult the team had faced this season. She said that the tournament gave them a good look at teams from the Western United States, which they could face later this year in post-season regional competition.
WOMEN'S GOLF
Reynolds was followed by freshman Missy Russell's 12th place finish. She shot rounds of 79, 77 and 79 in her second college tournament.
"I thought we could have played a little better," Russell said. "I was pretty pleased with what we did."
Russell said that nervousness was not as much a
problem as it was in her college debut at the Hawkeye Invitational in Iowa, where she tied at 11th.
Russell was followed by junior Ann Holbrook in 34th place, senior Pam Wineinger in 40th place and freshman Lori Lauritsen in 47th place.
The Jayhawks were topped by Oregon, who finished first, followed by British Columbia and Oregon State, who placed third and fourth by fielding two teams. Oregon's Cappy Mack was the tournament's top golfer with a final score of 218 strokes for the three-round tournament.
The Jayhawks will now have two weeks to prepare for their first home tournament at Alvamar Golf and Country Club in five years. The last time the Jayhawks played at Alvamar was the Big Eight Women's Championships in 1990, which the Jayhawks won.
Braves' manager key player in NL West title
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — General manager John Schuerholz deserves a lot of credit for the Atlanta Braves' third consecutive NL Westtitle.
The Braves defeated the Colorado Rockies 5-3 yesterday. After which they watched the Los Angeles Dodgers defeat the San Francisco Giants to give the Braves the title.
If Schuerholz hadn't acquired first baseman Fred McGriff from San Diego on July 18, the San Francisco Giants would be playing the Philadelphia Phillies in the NL playoffs. Instead, the Braves will try to become the first three-time champion in the National League since the 1942-44 St. Louis Cardinals.
"He was certainly a big contributor," Schuerohölz said. "I know he brought life to the offense. Obviously, he was a great asset and a tremendous addition."
Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine, Steve Avery and John Smithz formed the best rotation in baseball, going 74-33. David Justice hit 40 homers, Ron Gant hit 36, and Jeff Blauser drove in 73 runs.
When McGriff joined the Braves, Atlanta was nine games behind the Giants.
"From that point on, we were on fire," said Glavine, who won a career-high 22 games. "After seeing what he could do for us, we knew this guy was for real. It was a breath of fresh air and I think it just got contagious."
With McGriff in the lineup, the Braves played at a.750 pace, going 51-17.
turning this around."
"I think we were playing pretty decent before he got Fred," Glavine said. "But after we got him there's no question he's been a major playing in
The Braves finally caught the Giants on Sept. 10, when Maddux beat the Padres 3-2. Atlanta built its margin to four games a week later as the Giants lost eight in a row. San Francisco then won 14 of 16 as the Braves went 9-5, and the teams were tied with one game remaining.
McGriff, one of only 12 players to hit at least 30 home runs in six consecutive seasons, finished with 73 homers, 100 RBIs and hit .291. With Atlanta he hit 19 homers and drove in 55 runs.
"I felt like I helped out, but this was already a good team before I got here," said the reserved McGriff. "I just added another bat."
He also made Atlanta's other bats more potent.
Gant, Justice and Terry Pendleton all were
struggling before McGriff's arrival.
McGriff was inserted in the No. 4 spot in the batting order and Pendleton was dropped from sixth to third. Gant took over at No. 3, and Justice moved from the cleanup up to No. 5.
All four hit close to .300 after McGriff showed up and their power numbers all were substantially higher. Justice drove in 120 runs. Gant drove in 115 — a career high. Pendleton ended with 17 homers — 11 after McGriff arrived — and 83 RBIs.
Another key performer was center fielder Otis Nixon. Relegated to the bench and hoping to be traded in June when the Braves signed Deion Sanders to a three-year contract, Nixon got to play when Sanders was sidelined by an upper respiratory infection in August.
He was hitting only .223 on Aug. 10 but finished at .269 and wound up stealing more than 40 bases for his third straight season with the Braves.
Braves fans wait while Giants play, celebrate in stadium
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — Fulton-County Stadium turned into a foot-stomping, tomahawk-chopping party yesterday as thousands of Braves fans watched Los Angeles defeat San Francisco 12-1, giving the NL West division title to Atlanta for the third straight year.
After the Braves defeated the Colorado Rockies 5-3, about 8,000 fans stayed around to watch the Giants-Dodgers game on the big screen in left field.
The crowd, bunched up behind home plate and sprawling out along the first-and third-base lines for the best view of the screen, cheered along with every play as they watched the Dodgers end the Giants' season.
The crowd was bigger and rowder than at most live games here only a few seasons ago.
Fans and stadium employees followed along with a tomahawk image imposed on the screen when the Dodgers scored five runs in the eighth inning to put the game away.
"The fans here are into it more than anywhere else, even when we're down," said Carmen Strickland, a 12-year season-ticket holder who endured a July 4 game that lasted until 4:30 a.m. in 1986. "Sure you've got fans that jump on board, but a lot of us have been for years and we still believed."
Fireworks erupted above the stadium after the Giants loss, and several Braves players ran out onto the field for a curtain call.
David Justice started in the left field corner and exchanged high-fives with fans all the way around the stadium track.
