Sophomore Billy Martindale has been something of a disappoint ment and has not won near as many matches this season as was expected. A1 Jones and Tomas Fonseca have carried much of the load for the Aggies. “Although Martindale has not played his best golf this season,” said Fagan, “he has also met the toughest competition the confer ence has to offer.” The team as a unit has won six out of seven matches, taking 25% points out of a possible 42 in team play. Fagan thinks this is good, but not good enough to cop the tournament honors. “A&M should finish third be hind Texas Tech and TCU,” he said. “We have beat them both, but not by a large enough margin.” The Red Raiders sewed up the preliminary SWC crown Saturday when they downed the Baylor Bears in Waco. The A&M feam will enter two men in the conference tournament. Participants in the meet are based on the place the team holds when regular season play biids. The Aggies will have a better than even chance of copping the tourna ments honors, though, since they will be playing on their home course. Tournament play will start May 8 with 36 holes being scheduled for each day of the two day meet. LEON B. WEISS CO.
