Texas Tech high jumper Sidney Sapp won her event and set the school record Sunday, clearing 6 feet, 2 1/4 inches. It was the first career conference title for the senior from Oklahoma City and helped the Tech women finish second. In the Big 12 Conference outdoor track and field championships, probably no one gave the Texas Tech women a chance of denying top-ranked Texas its third consecutive team title. But the Red Raiders sure made the Longhorns earn it. Texas racked up 172 1/2 points in the three-day meet at the Fuller Track Complex, and Tech was right behind with 162.
