Women netters split matches
By RICK STOLLE
Battalion Staff
Playing some of their best ten
nis, the Texas A&M women’s ten
nis team split two matches over
the weekend to up their season
record to 13-9.
The Ags beat SMU in Dallas6-3
behind the singles wins of Pam
Hill, Sonja Hutcherson, Maylyn
Hooton and a sweep of doubles
action.
Hill beat Vicki Vasicek 6-3,6-3;
Hutcherson defeated Laura Fis-
, cher 6-2, 6-1 and Maylyn Hooton
defeated Lauren Cotter 6-1, 6-1 in
singles.
In doubles, Hill-Hutcherson
beat Stephanie Fess-Ellen March
6-3, 3-6, 6-3; Laura Hanna-Amy
Gloss defeated Libby French-
Cotter 6-3, 7-5 and Liliana Fer-
nandez-Judy Willard beat Vasi-
cek-Fischr 6-2, 6-3 to compete
the sweep.
“Our doubles have become the
strongest part of our game," said
Aggie coach Jan Cannon.
The Ags were not as fortunate
when they went up against North
Texas State University Sunday in
Denton.
The Ags found themselves on
the short end of the score after
singles and were forced to win all
three doubles to win the match.
“What was even tougher,” said
Cannon, “was by the time the
number one doubles got to the
third set, all the other matches
were over and the match was tied
at four-all.”
The top doubles match lasted
well into the night as the Aggie
team of Hill-Hutcherson was
barely beaten by Linda Gomez-
Gwynn Sammel 7-5, 6-7, 7-5.
“You can’t get much closer than
that,” said Cannon. “But Pam and
Sonja really played their hearts
out, it was a shame that somebody
had to lose that match.”
In singles, Fernandez beat
Sammel 7-5, 6-3 and Hutcherson
defeated Ellen Hopkins 6-4, 1-6,
6-1 to give the Ags a chance in the
match.
Hanna-Closs beat Cheri Slo-
gan-Hopkins 7-5, 6-4 and Feman-
dez-WiDard defeated Athena
Blair-Robyn Hoithckmier 6-2, 6-3
to tie the score before the crucial
number one doubles match.
The Ags will entertain Texas
Tech at the Omar Smith Tennis •
Center Friday at 1:30 p.m. before -
traveling to Austin Saturday to ;
play the Texas Longhorns.

Aggies sign two women
recruits to national letters
By HICK STOLLE
Battalion Staff
Texas A&M tennis coach David Kent is as pleased
as he could be.
id crime lil Kent has announced the signings of two women’s
d "three Mayers to A1AW National Letters of Intent. Signing
head of tie: with the Ags are Teresa Landry, a transfer student
tnce theyrnfr™ Midland Jr. College and Nandini Rangarajan
: evidence ifBombay, India.
“Both these girls will be able to make a great
mtribution to the team,” said an obviously pleased
ient. “With our returning players, the future of
fexasA&M women’s tennis is very bright.”
Landry graduated from Plainview and attended
idland College on a tennis scholarship. She was
ited the Most Valuable Player for her short career
Midland.
She was the 1980 NJCAA National Tournament
runner-up and so far this season is undefeated in
Mch play.
| She is very steady on the court,” said Aggie assis
tant coach Jan Cannon. “She is tenacious and patient
and will beat the people who take her lightly. ”
Cannon said Landry does not look imposing but is
good at keeping the ball in play, especially on the last
point.
F “Teresa is very consistent and a lot of girls will
ime off the court wondering how they lost,” she
id. “I fully expect her to fill one of the top spots in
„ es.”
She will be a junior on a team that will have only
two seniors and two other juniors returning.
“Teresa has proven herself in Texas and the Un
ited States,” she said.
I Rangarajan is a very accomplished international
ing:
player. While she is India’s Junior National Cham
pion, she has not competed much in the U.S.
Her father is the only coach she has known and
said she wants to play in the U.S. to receive more
exposure. The Rangarajan family also wants her to
compete against better players and different techni
ques to further her tennis education.
At age 15, Rangarajan was chosen for the Junior
Winbledon by the All India Lawn Tennis Associa
tion. She was not allowed to compete due to a lack of
professional circuit points.
She is 16 years-old now but will turn 17 before
when she goes to London as India’s representative.
She is 16 years-old now but will turn 17 before
enrolling at Texas A&M in September. She will take
a short leave of absence in September to defend her
All-Asian title in Hong Kong.
With her family, Rangarajan visited campuses all
over the U.S. before selecting Texas A&M.
Rangarajan has a brother who lives in Houston
and so she looked especially hard at Texas schools,
said Cannon.
Cannon said she expects Rangarajan to experience
some homesickness but with the help of die large
Indian community at Texas A&M and the Bryan-
College Station area, and some help from her friends
on the team, she will come through with flying
colors.
Both Cannon and Kent are pleased with both re
cruits and look forward with anticipation to the fu
ture of Texas A&M women’s tennis.
“Nandini is an unexpected diamond. She is prob
ably the best recruit we’ve ever had in the history of
Aggie women’s tennis,” he said. “Both girls will help
the future of the program greatly.”

LITTLE ROCK — Arkansas
football coach Lou Holtz said
ABC-TV has approached him ab
out moving the Razorbacks’ game
with the Texas Longhorns to De
cember, but he refused.
“We will never move the Texas
game again, ” Holtz said last week.
“And I’ve told my coaches that if I
ever leave the veer (offense) again,
to shoot me. They said they
wouldn’t have to, the fans would
beat me to it.”
Holtz has blamed the Sept. 1
television opener with Texas,
which the Hogs lost, and a switch
from the veer to I-formation for
Arkansas’ 7-5 campaign last year.
Holtz complained that the early
starting date made the season too
long. He returned to the veer in
mid-season.
The Hogs and Horns are sche
duled to meet Oct. 17 at Fayette
ville.
The 1981 Razorbacks will be un
veiled April 18 in the first Red-
White intrasquad scrimmage. It
will be played in Little Rock’s War
Memorial Stadium.
The Association of Baptist Students will be
showing "Let Their Eyes Be Opened" on Tues.
April 14 at 7 p.m. This is a documentary film
on Humanism in today's culture. The film will
be shown at 304 Highland, C.S. Free admis
sion.
