The entire Texas A&M Univer
sity men s tennis team is in action
today, while four members of the
women’s team travel to Fort
Worth Saturday to compete in the
Texas Sectionals tournament.
Only four of the 12 women on
the team met tournament require
ments by being Texas residents
and having competed in three
tournaments.
“Sonja Hutcherson, Pam Hill,
Rebecca Rasor and Laura Hanna
were the only girls to stay in state
to play summer tennis,” said
women’s coach Jan Cannon.
The men’s team will host the
Texas A&M University three-way
tournament involving Texas
A&M, the University of Texas and
Texas Christian University.
TCU has some of the top singles
players in the conference as well
as the NCAA champion doubles
team of Karl Richter-David Pate.
“The matches promise to be
great spectator sport,” said coach
David Kent. “It’s not every day
fans are able to see NCAA cham
pions and championship tennis
like we ll have. I am looking for
some very fine, heated matches.”
Kent went on to say the tourna
ment has been sanctioned by the
Tennis Coaches Association and
he hopes the tournament will be
come an annual event.
“Besides,” he said, “it is always
easier to start at home rather than
going on a road trip.”
The Aggies have no senior
leadership this year but will rely
upon a trio of juniors to lead the
team: Brian Joelson, Ron Kowal
and Tom Judson.
Seeded singles players in the
tournament are Greg Amayla,
Pate and Richter of TCU along
with Paul Crozier of Texas. They
have each received byes in the
first singles round.
Singles matches in the first
round of the three-way tourna
ment for the Ags are freshman
Kimmo Alkio against Doug Snyd
er of Texas; freshman Mike
Pazourek against Peter Kures of
TCU; freshman Greg Hill against
Chris Doane of TCU; transfer
sophomore Arnold Kettnaeker
versus Paul Crozier of Texas;
transfer Van Barry will go against
Tom Fontana; Judson against
Corey Whittenberg of TCU;
freshman Lauro Gonzales against
Craig Kardon ofTexas; sophomore
Genario Fernandez against
George Lee of TCU; Joelson
against Edgar Giffenig of Texas;
and Kowal against Kevin Forbes of
Texas.
The doubles teams of Pate-
Richter, Kowal-Judson, Crozier-
Erck and Kardon- Crawford are
seeded.
In doubles, first-round matches
scheduled for Texas A&M are
Kowal-Judson against Kures-
Metzger of TCU; Hill-Alkio
against Kardon-Crawford of
Texas; Barry-Kettnacker against
Crozier-Erck of Texas; Joelson-
Pazourek against Leeson-Lee of
TCU and Fernandez-Gonzales
against Levine-Fontana of TCU.

The Texas A&M University
men’s and women’s cross country
teams will be in action today as
they host their first meet of the
year.
The Seventh Annual Texas
A&M Invitational meet begins at 6
p.m. when the women begin their
5,000 meter race on the Texas
A&M golf course. Teams compet
ing in the event are the University
of Texas, Abilene Christian Uni
versity, the University of Hous
ton, Baylor University, Texas
Tech University, the University of
Texas-El Paso and Sam Houston
State University.
The Aggies finished third in last
year’s meet behind champion
Texas and runner-up Lamar. Nix
said the Longhorns should be the
favorite again this year as well.
“We should be strong enough,
though,” he said, “to give Texas a
real battle and we have a better-
than-average chance to beat
them.”
The field is wide open because
the top finisher last year was from
Lamar, who is not sending a team
this year,” Nix said.
The meet will be over the fairly
flat Texas A&M golf course. Nix
said the only rough spots for the
athletes will be slight inclines,
especially one near the end of the
race.
“If anyone has any kick left, that
last incline usually drains it pretty
fast,” he said.
Nix said he w r ould be able to tell
the probable outcome of the race
after approximately one-third of
the race.
“A mile is a third of the race and
the positions don’t usually change
after that,” he said.
The runner finishing first will
win one point, while second place
will get two. The team with the
lowest total will win the meet.
Running for the Aggie women
will be Adelaide Bratten, Kim
Cloud, Barbara Collinsworth,
Jana Graves, Marilee Matheny,
Lisa McCorstin, Suzanne Shef
field and Dena Spier.
Coach Ted Nelson’s men’s team
will compete against Baylor,
Texas, Houston and Lamar.
Texas A&M runners will be
Andy Elliott, Jim Bolleter, Ray
Muenich, Richard Bradley, Jim
Sterling, Jefl Kurtz and Howard
Loehr.
The men will run the course
twice to reach the 10,000 meter
mark.
