By RICHARD OLIVER Sports Editor > The Texas A&M University men’s soccer team limped home from the state tournament last spring a little dejected after coming in fourth. This year, however, the team is quite rejuvenated and is prospering from the instruction of a new coach, Telmo Franco of Peru. Franco has taken the young Aggies and molded them into one of the more respectable teams in the Southwest Conference Soccer League. This weekend, that young team takes on one of the strongest teams in the country, SMU. The Mustangs come into College Station as the No. 4 team in the na tion and a tradition of fine soccer teams behind them. The two teams clash at 11:30 Saturday morning on the drill field. A&M, however, is upset-minded. The Aggies have already knocked off the perennially powerful Baylor Bears this year, and have tied Arkansas. “The team is ready,” said Assistant Coach David Flentge Thursday. “They break into little groups and talk it over ... they’re pretty fired up.” SMU, on the other hand, is a team not to be taken lightly. Part of the Mustangs’ strength lies in the two All-Americans on the team, goalie Randy Phillips and Saeid Baghvardani. Both are being highly recruited by professional soc cer clubs. While the Aggies and Mustangs emphasize overall skill and ball handling, SMU has the edge in ex perience. Prior to the game, two local youth teams will take each other on. The teams, both at the 12-13 age level, will start play at 10 a.m. The Super Sonics, a Bryan team coached by Jim Wright, will meet the Red Brothers, a College Station team coached by Ataliba Lago. Youth players from the area are invited to attend. Franco and the Aggies held two soccer camps in College Station in August. THG!
