Texas Sweeps Big 8 Relays

LINCOLN, Neb. THE University of Texas women's swimming and diving team captured 17 of 20 events at the Big 12 Conference Relays on Saturday at the Devaney Center Pool, while the men's team won 14 of 20 races as both teams earned first place finishes.

The Texas women's team totaled 120 points, placing ahead of Texas A&M with 71 points, and the men's team scored 116 points to outscore the Aggies with 91 points.

There was more than a little irony in the Big 8 holding its relay meet at the University of Nebraska where, last season, Athletic Director Bill Byrne eliminated the men's program citing budgetary reasons. Shortly thereafter, Byrne divied up more than a million dollars in bonuses among his coaches (with a generous bonus for himself, of course, leawding some to wonder just how severe that budgetary crisis could have been.

Byrne coordinated his shameless actions with those of his counterparts at Kansas aand Iowa State. as a result, this year's Big 8 relays featured all of three men's teams 9and six women's).
