By STEVE SISNEY
Sports Staff
This Saturday, the Texas A&M
Skeet and Trap Club will be hosting
an open gauge skeet and trap shoot at
the Bryan-College Station Gun Club
at 10 a.in.
Participants will compete in three-
man teams, with teams being di
vided into three classes based on
scores at the end of the competition.
The classes will be arranged
according to shooting ability, and
trophies will be awarded to the
teams with the highest overall score
in each class.
Each team will shoot 225 targets
(75 targets per man) in the areas of
skeet, doubles from all stations (a
form of skeet), and trap.
Although everyone is eligible to
attend, no more than one Bryan-
College Station Gun Club or TAMU
club member per team is allowed.
Money raised by the club at this
event will go towards helping pay the
way for the Texas A&M Skeet and
Trap team to attend the National
Collegiate Skeet and Trap Shooting
Championships in Peoria, Ill., April
22-26.
An extramural team, the Aggie
squad won the event in 1978 and
captured third place last year,
finishing seven targets behind the
winners.

Tennis team to face ^
13th ranked Horns
By MIKE BURRICHTER
Sports Editor
The Texas A&M men’s tennis
team, off to what coach David Kent
says is best start ever, will travel to
Austin Saturday to face the Universi
ty of Texas Longhorns.
The Aggies, 12-4, have not beaten
the Horns in conference play since
1966. Last fall the Aggies edged the
Longhorns in a tournament at Con
roe, 5-4.
“I hope we don’t have to wait that
long to beat them again,” laughed
Kent. “But we re ready for them.”
The Ags are coming off of an im
pressive showing in the Corpus
Team Tournament two weeks ago.
The Ags finished fourth in the 26-
team tourney, defeating defending
Big Eight champion Oklahoma State
and the SMU Mustangs, ranked
fourth in the nation, in the process.
Arkansas, ranked ninth in the nation,
won the tournament, followed by
Houston and Clemson, two top
twenty teams that beat the Ags in the
tourney. The Aggie’s victory over
SMU was the greatest victory in
Aggie tennis history, Kent said.
“We’ve never beaten a team in the
top four before,” Kent said. “It was
our most important win of the
season. ’’
SMU, UT, and TCU, all picked to
finish in front of the Ags in the South
west Conference and all ranked in
the top twenty, finished behind the
Ags in the Corpus Christi event.
Trey Schutz, the Aggie’s No. 1
player, is confident his team can beat
the Horns.
“We re better than they are,” the
junior from Galveston said. "The
only way they can win is if they get
the right match-ups. Coach hasn’t
really decided who is going to play
what (seed) yet.”
Schutz almost didn’t make the
trip, having suffered from the flu this
week.
