The Montgomery Advertiser from Montgomery, Alabama (2024)

The Montgomery Advertiser JANUARY 27, 1992 PAGE 5B SEC bans use of tobacco in league ba baseball games feel the health and well-being of our players in this matter is the bottom Alabama coach Barry Shollenberger doesn't believe his Crimson Tide players will be negatively affected by the ruling. "We knew about this last year because of our tournament bid," he said. "They told us our players would not be allowed to chew. Our players will have no problems adjusting to this." In addition to the SEC sanction, Schollenberger has banned all tobacco use at his practices. LSU coach Skip Bertman hopes the SEC's stand on tobacco use eventually will lead to its elimination on the major league level.

"It's a silly habit," Bertman said, "and without doubt it's a health factor. I have always been an advocate of barring the use of tobacco products. Fortunately, this ruling won't hurt many of our players. I feel in the near future the NCAA will ban it at every level of play." Polk said only three or four of his players would be affected by the ban. But he's not all that concerned about their preferences.

He's concerned about the impact baseball players have on youths watch their every move. "Last year in the NCAA tournament, we had two players who didn't like the rule, but they played through it," Polk said. "Many major league players chew tobacco products and the kids emulate they see on television, so it's not their fault." The ban was no shock to Vanderbilt coach Roy Mewbourne. After getting early word about the new rule, Mewbourne prohibited the use of tobacco at Vanderbilt's fall practice. "This won't affect any of our young men because I've banned it here at Vanderbilt," said Mewbourne.

"It may be an initial struggle at first for them, but they'll overcome it. "It's a proven fact that this stuff is harmful, and it should have been eradicated a long time By CHRIS WALKER it to the letter," Baird said. "We Mississippi State coach Ron Tobacco is now taboo in Southeastern Conference baseball. The NCAA banned the use of all forms plato tobacco during tournament in 1991, and the SEC's baseball coaches have followed suit in 1992 by eliminating the use of the substance at all league games. For SEC commissioner Roy Kramer, the ban was a commonsense decision based on research which indicates that smokeless tobacco used frequently by baseball players cause mouth and lip cancer.

"The NCAA took this step about a year ago for its tournament games, based on health-research studies, and our coaches agreed that it was time we took the same step," Kramer told USA Today. Auburn coach Hal Baird, whose Tigers began preseason practice a week ago, had a little trouble convincing his players that the ban was genuine. "When I first told our players about the ban, they thought I was joking," Baird said, "but I had to tell them it was no joke." Despite their mixed emotions about the SEC's decision, Baird believes his players understand the intent of the tobacco ban. "I support it and we will follow Palmer big Skins winner Staff Writer no, who also came up empty on Sunday, won $30,000 on Saturday. the way I played Saturday, I was about as low as I've been in some time," Palmer said.

"I practiced some after we played, went out and played most of the back nine, and I felt a little better starting today, felt looser. "I think the putt I made at No. 10 to halve the skin with Chi Chi was a big putt for me. It's hard to get over that thing when you're not making putts, and that one did it for me. that, I felt when I didn't birdie a hole, it was only because I had made a mistake.

I felt like I should birdie every Nicklaus smiled and said he felt almost like a spectator on Sunday, explaining, "When you shoot something like a 34 and don't win a skin you just watch two guys play as well as Arnold and Chi Chi did and feel you weren't even really in the game." Nicklaus added, "Arnold played awfully well; he kept right after it." Both Palmer's big money-winning shots came on par-3, 202- yard holes at the Mauna Lani Resort course. Palmer, who overnight seemed to straighten out problems with his irons that plagued him Saturday, hit his tee shot to within 15 feet of the pin on No. 15 after the two previous holes were tied. Trevino, who was just outside Palmer, missed his putt, then Palmer stroked the ball into the middle of the cup to earn $105,000. Palmer's winning shot on the 12th hole was even more dramatic.

Palmer hit long on the hole and wound up on the back fringe, with Nicklaus and Rodriguez both on the green. Palmer's chip from 45 feet, however, twisted down and into the hole and Nicklaus and Rodriguez both missed their putts. The 13th hole had been tied with routine pars, and Rodriguez and Trevino both had birdies on No. 14 to build the pot to $105,000 on the 15th. Rodriguez also helped set the stage for Palmer's big payoff on No.

12. Rodriguez birdied No. 9 on Saturday to tie Nicklaus for the hole and carry that $25,000 over to the first hole on Sunday. By KEN PETERS Associated Press Writer KOHALA COAST, Hawaii Arnold Palmer staged one of his classic charges Sunday to win two holes worth seven skins and $205,000 in the Senior Skins Game. After playing poorly and being shut out the first day of the twoday tournament, Palmer stormed back to win $100,000 when he chipped in from the fringe on the 12th hole, then picked up $105,000 more with a 15-foot birdie putt on No.

15. The total of $205,000 for Palmer, at 62 the oldest player in the Senior Skins, gave him the tournament title for 1992. He also won the Senior Skins in 1990, when he earned $240,000. Chi Chi Rodriguez won $105,000 Sunday, $70,000 with a 40-foot putt for birdie on No. 17, and $35,000 with a 5-foot birdie putt on the first playoff hole after No.

18 was tied. That ran his total for the tournament to $120,000. Jack Nicklaus, the big winner last year with $310,000, this time was blanked over the nine holes played Sunday after winning $95,000 the first day.
