Lamar Invitational and finished
fourth, but we were only three
shots out of second place,” she
said. “We haven’t practiced very
much because of the rain this
week, but the girls are very ex
cited and we expect to win.”
Familiarity with the course
should help the team do well in
the tournament, Furlong said.
“We all know the course,” she
said. “We have four veterans re
turning from last year’s tourna
ment and everyone was shooting
around par last Week.”
“The course is in Big Thicket
country and has lots of trees.
The key will be to keep the ball
in play out of the trees and to
concentrate on playing the
course instead of the other
teams,” Furlong said.
The men’s golf team’s recent
victory at the Southwest Confer
ence tournament has made the
women more determined to win
state and to do well in the two
national tournaments

“The men’s team has helped
to inspire us,” Furlong said. “We
asked the guys what their secret
weapon was and they us told to
practice our short game (chip
ping and putting on the green)
and to keep a positive attitude
and we have.”

getting it together now. We’re
really fired up because of the
men’s win.”

New tournament to be
‘NIT’ of college tennis
United Press International
A new tournament modeled after basketball's
MONROE, La.
NIT will rank as the second most prestigious event in college
tennis, Northeast Louisiana University officials say.
To be called the National Independent Tennis Tournament,
the meet would include the top men’s teams in the nation that do
not participate in the NCAA championship — which involves only
16 teams.
“This tournament will fill a vacuum in college tennis,” NLU
coach Wilson Campbell said Thursday. “Probably fewer teams get
to participate in the NCAA tennis tournament than in any other
NCAA championship, so there are many other strong teams which
deserve a chance to compete in a national tournament.”
Campbell said he had already obtained commitments from
several nationally ranked teams for the tournament, w hich will be
held May 15-18 at the Heard Tennis Complex at NLU.
Teams already committed to attend include California-Irvine,
which has beaten three Top 20 teams; Auburn, currently ranked
in the Top 20; San Jose State and Minnesota.
