Texas A&M went 7-6-2 in the fall and is 4-1-1 for the spring season. However, all games in the sping be sides the tournament are unsanc tioned by the SWC, said Mark Stom- berg, a team member and press agent. The Ags defeated Rice, Texas A&M at Galveston and Sam Houston twice. They lost and tied Stephen F. Austin University to make their spring seaon. Stromberg said the team over came some early-season shakes, started to play together and has started to hit its peak. “WeVe looked real good in the last two games and in practice,” he said. “The team had a problem getting going but we’re rolling now. ” Winston said the shakes hit early in the fall against SMU. At the time, SMU was ranked second in the na tion. Many of the players were star tled when about 7,000 people attended the game. “They scored three quick goals on us before we started to settle down,” Winston said. “After the shakes, we played them evenly.” Winston said the Aggies have the toughest defense in the conference right now. It is a quick team with a strong passing attack, he said. “We have two good fullbacks who can pass the ball quickly up the field.” Winston said the team expects to play SMU for the championship Sun day. He said it is up to SMU to be there because the Ags will be waiting. Winston said SMU, being the favorite, has all the pressure on them. They have two All-Americans, a lofty national ranking and sent two players to the pros when the fall sea son ended, he said. “It’s all the edge we need,” said Winston. SMU gets a $37,000 budget and scholarships for the soccer team, he said. Texas A&M gets $13,000 and its without the benefit of scholarship athletes. “I’m not complaining, but it is kind of rough to play with that kind of competiton,” Winston said. Nevertheless, he said the team will do its best and feels they can win. “And even if we don’t win it all,” he said, “we re gonna give ‘em a hel luva battle!” HORSEMEN’S ASSOCIATION ANNUAL INTERCOLLEGIATE HORSE SHOW Showmanship Trail Pole Bending Hunt Seat Western Pleasure Halter Barrel Racing Reining Entry Fee — $4.00/class TAMU EQUESTRIAN CENTER on FM 2818 MARCH 29 8:30 a.m. FOR ENTRY INFO: 845-8421 - KELLY KAYS, CHAIRMAN 845-1562 - TAMU HORSE OFFICE CONCESSIONS AVAILABLE McKenzie-Baldzvin BUSINESS COLLEGE Inquire About Our Terms Starting April 1, 1980 Phone 822-6423 or 822-2368 CASA BIANCA Early Leasing Special Until April 5 12 month lease - 2 students 2 bedroom apartments $21 S/month Unfurnished S250/month Furnished 410 OLD COLLEGE MAIN 846-1413 ShuttlePus - pool - laundry convenient Special "Summer Only" Rate By RICK STOLLE , Sports Reporter [Coming from impressive showings jtheir last three tournaments, the jexas A&M University men’s golf am travels to Austin today to com- te in the Morris Williams Golf [urnament.
