Ags play in SWC tourney
by KEVIN PYLE
SMU was the team winner in the
Southwest Conference tennis
championships but the individual
title went to a Nigerian freshman
from the University of Houston.
Nduka Odizor won the title over
top-seeded Jai DiLouis of SMU by
beating the All-American handily
6-3, 6-3.
A&M placed sixth in the field but
it was not a humiliating sixth as the
first five teams are ranked in the top
11 in the country.
A pair of freshmen, Reid Freeman
and Jim Grubert, had the best show
ing for the Ags. Playing in the No. 1
singles position, Freeman beat
Rice’s Ross Persons 7-5, 4-6, 6-4 in a
first round match. Grubert opened
by downing Doug Swallow from
Texas 6-3, 6-3.
In the second round, both went
down to defeat. Grubert to Arkan
sas’ Mark Johnson 6-4, 5-7, 6-1 and
Freeman to DiLouis 6-2, 6-4.
In the No. 2 singles, A&M’s Max
King lost to Gary Plock of Texas by

scores of 6-3, 3-6, 6-3. Also suffering
losses for A&M were Mike Moss
who lost to Texas’ Steve Denton 6-2,
■6-4, Trey Schutz to Houston’s
Robert Buchalter 6-4, 6-4 and Robin
Baker to Joel Hoffman also of Hous
ton by scores of 6-1, 6-3.
In doubles only the No. 1 team of

man and Hawkins. They lost their
next match to SMU’s Turpin and
Delaney.
King and Grubert were beaten by
Houston’s Odizor and Russli and
Moss and Baker lost to Cain and
Vine of SMU.
Coach Richard Barker said his
team played well. He added that the
Ags might be stronger next year due
to the fact that they won’t be losing
anyone from this year’s team.
The final point totals were
SMU, 74; Houston, 66; Texas, 65;
Arkansas, 62; TCU, 52; A&M, 31;
Rice, 18; Baylor, 17; and Texas
Tech, 2.
The Texas A&M University wo
men’s tennis team competed in Den-
|ton last weekend in the Texas As
sociation of Intercollegiate Athletics
for Women tournament and finished
in seventh place.
In the tournament, 16 other
schools were represented including
top ranked Trinity University,
Southern Methodist University and
the University of Texas.
The teams finishing in the top six
places assured themselves of qual
ifying for the Southwest Association
of Intercollegiate Athletics for
Women tournament on May 16 in
Monroe, La.
Ellen Buchanan, the tennis coach
at Texas A&M for the past three
years, said that the Aggies, because
of their seventh place finish in the
TAIAW tournament, would also
probably be asked to participate in
the SWAIAW as an at-large team.
“We knew this tournament was
going to be a challenge,” Buchanan
said. “When you play with teams
listed in the top ten in national
ratings, you know it won’t be easy.”
In the singles, the Aggies were
defeated in a round of 16. In dou
bles, the Aggies did well with the
team of Kathleen Sissom, A&M s
number one singles player, and
Susan Schilling and the team of
Elise Richardson and Alexis Hefley
both losing in the quarterfinals. De
bbie Odum and Mary Guerra were
defeated in the first round.
The qualifiers out of the TAIAW
tournament were Trinity Univer
sity, TCU, SMU, Texas Tech Uni
versity, the University of Houston
and the University of Texas.
Buchanan said there were a large
number of spectators that came to
watch the tournament.
“Most of the audience consisted
of students,” she said. “Even Mar
tina Navratilova, the professional
woman tennis player, was there.
Anne Smith, from Trinity,
finished first in both singles and dou
bles play.
“Trinity was definitely the strong
est university in the tournament,”
Buchanan said. “They took first
place with 36 points. TCU finished
closest to them with 19 points.
Next year, the women’s team
should be very strong.
“Next year, our team should do
real well,’ Buchanan said. “We
have one graduating senior, Betty
Shillcutt, that we will miss, but
we’ve signed Pam Hill, a freshman
from Beaumont and Maylyn
Hooton, a freshman from
Richardson.”
The next tournament after the
SWAIAW which the Aggies hope to
qualify for is the United States Ten
nis Association tournament in San
Antonio scheduled for May 29.

Ag golfers finish third
By KEVIN PYLE
To the surprise of no one, the
University of Houston won the
Southwest Conference golf tourna
ment' To the surprise of some they
just won by a stroke. They came
from four strokes back in the final
round to edge the University of
Texas.
A&M finished in third place but
the real story for the Aggies was the
outstanding performance of sopho
more Dave Ogrin. Ogrin, from
Waukegan Ill., finished just one
stroke behind individual champion
Terry Snodgrass of Houston.
Ogrin, an honorable mention
All-America last year, fired rounds
of 73-71-69 for a 213 total and one
behind Snodgrass’ 212.
He played his heart out,” said
Aggie golf coach Bob Ellis. Playing
his heart out paid off for him as his
second place finish assured him of
an invitation to the NCAA tourna
ment which is the big one for col
lege golf.
Besides Ogrin’s score, other
Aggie scores were Tim Carlton, 225;
Biff Alexander, 226; and Richard
Cromwell, 227. Also Doug Ward
shot 232 and Jay Kent shot 239.
