Netters bow to SMU Ags lose close match to ranked Mustangs Re AHEM!!! Tuesday, April 8th, 7:30 p.m. 302 Rudder DR. RALPH F. COLEMAN from the Wilcrest Emergency Medical Center in Houston, U will speak on "What you should know before entering medical school." By MIKE BURRICHTER Sports Editor The Texas A&M tennis team won an easy match Friday and then lost a tough conference match to SMU Saturday in one of their best show ings this season. On Friday, the Ags overwhelmed North Texas State University, 8-1, in Denton. Reid Freeman led the Aggie onslaught with a 6-3, 3-6, 6-2 victory over David Cody in the No. 1 singles match. In other Aggie singles victories, Brian Joelson beat Scott Rolff, 6-4, 6-0; Ron Kowal defeated Jack Scheehy 6-4, 3-6, 6-3; Tom Jud- son defeated Mike Welsch 6-0, 6-4; and Boyd Bryan beat David Smith, 6-0, 6-4. Trey Schutz, the Aggies’ No. 2 player, suffered the only sing les setback against NTSU when he lost to Luciano Cuneo, 6-4, 6-3. In doubles, Schutz and Jim Grubert started off the Aggie sweep with a 7-5, 6-3 win over Cuneo and Cody. Alberto Jimenez and Max King beat Rollf and Scheehy 6-3, 6-2 and Kowal and Judson demolished Welsch and Smith 6-0, 6-0. The SMU match was another story. The Ags had upset the Mus tangs in a tournament earlier this season. The Mustangs were ranked fourth in the nation at the time and the 5-4 loss to the Ags in the Corpus Christi tennis tournament was the beginning of a downward slide which saw them ranked tenth going into the match Saturday. This time the Mustangs were at full strength and ready to play. But so were the Aggies. Four of the six singles matches went to three sets. SMU won the first three, and the Aggies won the next three to send the teams into the doubles matches in a deadlock. SMU clinched the team victory by winning two of three doubles matches. “This is the best I have ever seen the tennis team compete in that we were in all of the matches,” Aggie coach David Kent said. “Seven of the nine matches were three sets. We came within one tennis point of beat ing the tenth-ranked team in the na tion for the second time this year. “They were at full strength. I’ve been coaching for a long time and never had a team play so well to lose. I’m proud of our effort. ” Jai Dilouie beat Schutz in the top seed singles match, 7-6, 6-4 to start things off for the Mustangs. Drew WE BUY BOOKS EVERYDAY! Barcelona ...

The scouts were here to deter mine whether any of the players will be able to play football profession ally. Ken Hurak of the Tampa Bay Bus- saneers, said Tampa isn’t looking for any one player in particular. “I hate to use an old cliche, but we are look ing for the best football players avail able,” Hurack said. “We need some help offensively, but if the offensive players aren’t there, then we will go ahead and draft the best defensive players available.” Hurack said a new player for Tam pa would have a hard time finding a place to play on defense, since the Bugs were ranked first in defense last year. Hurack feels he has found two of the best players at Texas A&M. “Curtis Dickey and Jacob Green have to be ranked as two of the best in the nation at their positions, ” Hurack said.
