Battalion/Page 14 February 25,1983 Aggie sports teams face busy weekend of events The Texas A&M men’s track team opens its outdoor season Saturday in Beaumont with a dual meet against the Lamar Cardinals. The Aggies will use this nonscoring competition as a warmup for the Border Olym pics, to be held the next weekend in Laredo. Freshman Tony Grier and sophomore Tony Tolson will not make the trip to Beaumont, but will run in Fayetteville, Ark., at the seven-team Arkansas In door Open Invitational on Saturday. Since neither has qualified for the NCAA meet, this event will help their chances of achieving the standards needed to go that meet, which will take place March 10-12 in Pontiac, Mich. Invitations to participate in the NCAA meet are issued to the top 20 Division I athletes in each event. Tolson was the 600-yard dash champ at the Southwest Confer ence Indoor championships last weekend with a school record time of 1:10.02. Grier finished second in the 440-yard dash with a 48.4 1. In other Texas A&M action, the Aggie men’s golf team also will be in Beaumont taking part in the Flenry Homberg Intercol legiate tourney. Competing for the Aggies will be Danny Briggs, Kel Devlin, Gary Krueger, San dy Pierce and Jacky Lee. “This is an important tourna ment for us in that we need it for confidence,” head coach Bob Ellis said. “The field will be one of the toughest we’ve faced this year. Texas, Oklahoma State and others who have been regu lars at the NCAA golf tourna ment every year will be there. We just need to get a little more consistency.” The tournament will be play ed today through Sunday and will consist of 54 holes. A&M finished fourth two weeks ago in the Pan American Intercollegi ate behind Texas, Oklahoma State and Brigham Young, and finished in a third-place tie with Oklahoma behind Texas and Houston at the Columbia Lakes Intercollegiate. The Texas A&M men’s ten nis team, which hosted Sam Houston State this afternoon at 1:30, has a season record of 9-1. The Aggie women’s team, which is 6-2, was to play Lamar today at 1:30. The men’s team will play Tul sa here on Monday at 1:30 on the varsity courts. “This will be a rough match with Tulsa,” Aggie coach David Kent said. “They have a very good team.” Tulsa claimed first place in last year’s National In vitational Tennis tournament. The men’s squad will play ex hibition matches Saturday start ing at 9 a.m. at the Briarcrest Country Club in Bryan.

For some teams, a win over us at our own place makes their season.” The play of Heard and his teammates on the field is one of the main reasons the Aggies are faring better than what most ex perts expected. But the most pleasant surprise so far has been on the pitching mound. “All of our pitchers have been doing great,” Heard said. “Our freshmen Scott Deskins and Barry Smith are really doing well, Sherman Corbett is pitch ing great and of course Rick (Luecken) is always there. He’ll always give you a good game no matter what the circumstances are.” Luecken said that even though he and Corbett com bined to pitch a no-hitter against St. Mary’s, he’s nowhere near the form he would like to have by the end of the season. “Pitchers should always try to be ahead of the hitters they face,” Luecken said, “and right now I’m behind the hitters I face. I think our fielders have had a lot to do with the way we’ve been playing lately. When Moncrief, Bucks plaste lowly Rockets, 114-1031 career win. “That’s amazing," said. “You’vegottogive dit.
