courts. Tuesday Afternoon.
Eugene Letsos, A&M’s number
one player, beat Ken Wagstaff 6-
3, 6-4. Letsos played a steady
game and was placing the ball
better than he has done previously
this season.
Tommy West, number two Ag
gie netter, fell before Bob Love
lace 6-0, 6-4. West did not start
playing his usual game till the se
cond set, but Lovelace seemed to
be too consistant for West.
Ronny Wolff, the third ranking
Aggie netter, was beat in two close
sets by Earl Caldwell, 7-5, 6-4.
Wolff kept close behind Caldwell
both sets, but Wolff was never
able to pass him.
Jack Jacobson who played four
for the Aggies fell before Dwelt
Allen, 6-2, 6-1. Jacobson’s back
court shots were heavily damaged
by the strong wind.
Letsos and West joined to play
as the number one Aggie doubles
team and fell before Wagestaff
and Lovelace in a blasting three
set match, 1-6, 7-5, and 6-3.
Wolff and Jacobson joined to
beat the Cougar pair of Caldwell
and Allen by a narrow score of
3-6, 6-2, and 6-4.
