O. Box 26530, Austin, Texas 78755 - Phone 512-795-8536 Horns Upset Long Beach in NCAA Baseball; Football Camps Start Soon No. 3 seed Texas (35-24) upset No. 2 seed Long Beach State (35-22), 11-2, Friday in the first round of the NCAA baseball regional at Stanford. The Longhorns will play in the winner's bracket finals of the double-elimination tournament at 5 p.m. Saturday, probably against top-seeded Stanford, which was playing No. 4 seed Marist in the second game Friday. Gerrit Simpson tossed his sixth complete game to lead the Longhorns to victory. He struck out 12 and allowed nine hits. Texas scored twice in the fourth and picked up five more runs in the fifth to take a 7-0 lead and coast to the win. Jeff Ontiveros had a two-run homer for Texas and Sam Anderson had three hits, three runs batted in and two runs scored. If the Horns win their 5 p.m. game Saturday, they will need only one more v ictory to win the sub-regional. But, if they lose, they will have to play again Saturday night in an elimination game to try to get another shot at the undefeated team Sunday. The team that emerges from the loser's bracket would have to beat the winner's bracket champion twice Sunday to advance. * * * * The Longhorns start their summer football camps a week from Saturday, and some of the top players in the state and in the nation plan to attend. DT Lyle Sendlein of Scottsdale, Arizona, and FB-LB Brandon Hancock of Clovis West, Cal., head the out-of-state prospects who plan to come to the UT camps. Sendlein told me he probably will commit to Texas after the June 3 camp, and Hancock says he is very interested in Texas, but probably won't commit to anyone prior to the football season. Sendlein is the top prospect in Arizona and Hancock is one of the top recruits in California after dazzling everyone at a Nike camp in his home state. He checked in at 6-1, 242, then ran a 4.49 40, had a vertical leap of 39 inches and bench pressed 185 pounds 43 times. Hancock said he will come to the UT camp that starts on June 10. Top Texas players who plan to come to one of the UT camps include QBs Paul Thompson of Leander and Jamie Beeghley of Midland Christian, WR-TE David Thomas of Wollforth Frenship, OLs Jeff Lebby of Andrews and Tony Ugoh of Spring Westfield, DEs Travis Leitko of The Woodlands and Nick Owino of Alief Elsik, DT Earl Anderson of San Marcos, LBs Marvin Byrdsong of Longview, Garnett Smith of Arlington Lamar and Andy Matakis of Corpus Christi Flour Bluff, CB Donald Burgs of Houston Madison and RB-Athlete Paul Mosley of Austin Anderson. The state's top RB, Albert Hardy of Galena Park, says he hasn't decided whether to attend a summer camp, but don't be too surprised if he shows up for one of the UT mini-camps. Texas still has just one commitment ? fine OL Bret Valdez of Brownwood ? but the Longhorns will pick up several more in June. That's when the Texas coaches always jump start their recruiting and pick up eight or 10 pledges. * * * * An internet site calling itself Collegefootballnews.com has picked Texas to go 11-0 during the regular season and beat Nebraska in the Big 12 Championship Game. I liked that part of it, but then it picked Oklahoma to have the best defensive line and Texas to have the best linebackers in the Big 12. Texas will have a better defensive line than Oklahoma, and I know OU and several other Big 12 teams have better linebackers than Texas, so that doesn't do a lot for the site's credibility. The Texas coaches are proud of their defensive line and secondary, but they worry a lot about their linebackers. The site also rated UT No. 1 at quarterback, wide receiver, offensive line and defensive secondary in the Big 12. * * * * My next e-mail/fax will be whenever events warrant. * * * * The True Orange E-Mail/Fax Service includes at least 99 fax/e-mails a year and costs $99 ($79 by E-Mail).
