Ag netters lose close matches
TANK MPNAMAKA

With a combination of rain,
wind and tough opposition, both
Texas A8tM tennis teams found
tough going this weekend.
The men’s team was beaten by
the University of Texas 5-4 in a
hard-fought match which saw both
teams come back to win key sets
and matches.
The women lost one match and
were behind in the other when
rain forced a delay in the Rice
match. The women lost to TCU
5-4 Friday and were behind 3-2 to
Rice when a downpour Saturday
forced the coaches to postpone the
finish of the match until Monday
at 2 p.m.
Amy Gloss and Laura Hanna,
both freshmen, had the only sing
les wins for the Ags. Gloss beat
Angela Bartzen 6-2, 6-2 and Han
na defeated Barbara Von
Deineleaux 6-4, 6-4.
The Ags had a little better
showing in doubles where they
took two of the three matches.
Pam Hill-Sonja Hutcherson
beat Bartzen-Lori Nelson 3-6, 6-0,
6-1. Liliana Femandez-Judy Wil
lard defeated Lynn Davis-Von
Deineleaux 7-5, 6-2.
In the second match, the Ags
were playing better but the threat
of rain hung over the matches
throughout the singles.
Again, Gloss came through
with a win as she beat Karen Gar
mon 6-1, 6-1. Hutcherson defe
ated Deggie Melaas 6-1, 6-1 for
the other singles win.
The loss lowers the Ags record
to 8-5 with the second match
pending.
The second match on Saturday
pitted the 20th-ranked Texas
A&M men’s tennis team against
number 18 Texas. It was a match
that had fans for both teams ap
plauding for the other.
Only Max King and Ron Kowal
could win in singles for the Ags.
King beat Crain Kardon 6-4, 6-3
and Kowal defeated Doug Craw
ford 2-6, 6-2, 7-6.
Kowal’s win kept the Ags close
to the Longhorns. Crawford took
the first set 6-2 in a set that had
Kowal frustrated for the most part.
Kowal gained the upper hand in
the second set, though, and won
6-2.
He carried that advantage over
to the third set and had a 5-2 com
manding position. Before too
long, however, Crawford had bat
tled back to tie it at five games
apiece.
Kowal took the first game to go
up 6-5 but Crawford took the next
one to force the match into a de
ciding tie-breaker.
Kowal took the tie-breaker 5-3
to win the match and breath new
life back into the Ags.
“I couldn’t even stand to watch
iamond Room 707
1
the tie-breaker, ” said coach David
Kent. “The win gave us a chance,
though. ”
Going into doubles down 4-2,
they had to win all the doubles
matches to win the match.
Kent said it would have been
tough, but doubles is the best part
of the Aggies’ game.
The Ags won two of the three
matches and took all the matches
to three sets to surprise the Lon
ghorns and engineer an amazing
comeback.
Kowal-Tom Judson defeated
Guillermo Stevens-Paul Crozier
4-6, 6-2, 6-4 and Reid Freeman-
Brian Joelson beat Kardon-Ted
Erck 3-6, 7-5, 6-2.
The Ags lost the third doubles
match when Crawford-Garbin
Forbes defeated King-Jim
Grubert 5-7, 6-2, 6-3.
The loss drops the Ags’ record
to 16-7 for the spring season and
2-3 in Southwest Conference play.
The team is 26-18 in SWC
matches.
Next weekend, the Ags travel
to Fort Worth on Saturday and
Lubbock Sunday to take on TCU
and Texas Tech.

Just when everybody thought
football season was finished, the
true fans were watching an excit
ing game in Kyle Field Sunday.
The 10th Annual Elephant
Bowl was held Sunday with the
Air Force-Band team beating the
Army-Navy team 7-2.
In the first half, the Air Force
team rolled over the Army with an
ease that was embarrassing. Using
options and efficient passes, the
Air Force quarterback, Billy
Adams, marched the team down
the field on the second possession
to score.
Afterwards, the teams traded
punts for most of the remainder of
the half. After a 38-yard punt by
the Army team, the Air Force was
forced to start from their own 4-
yard line. Adams went back to
pass on third down but slipped on
the wet turf of Kyle Field and fell
on the 1-yard line.
The punt on fourth down was
low and caromed off the helmet of
one of the Air Forces’ own players
and out of the end zone.
After the Air Force free kick.
Army drove to the Air Force 10-
yard line. The team could not
punch it over an the Air Force
took over with 2:48 left in the first
half.
Using passes and a couple of
advantageous penlaties, the team
marched to the Army 1-yard line.
Adams called time-out with 14
seconds left to talk it over with his
coaches, Arlis James, Jay Dale and
Russ Labhart.
Of the two plays called in the
huddle, the drive was stopped,
and as the clock ticked off the last
