ions, we’ve performed well at
imes, but our pitching was real
ly relying on Rick Luecken to
win a lot of ball games for us. But
be just can’t seem to turn the
corner and win ball games. Just
look at our team ERAs and that
tells the whole story.”
In 1981 and 1982, the Aggies
turned the tide during the last
two weeks of the season to qual
ify for one of the four post-
Foul weather
season tourney spots. But it’s
going to be much tougher this
time, because Texas A&M still
has to play Texas Tech and Rice
on the road, and Baylor and
Texas in Olsen Field.
“We’ve got our backs to the
wall,” Chandler said, “but like
I’ve said all along, our pitching is
just so spotty. Now we’ve got to
go on the road and play Texas
Tech (which won two of three
from No. 3-ranked Houston
over the weekend). We’ve been
in the (SWC) tournament every
year but one, and this year’s
league looks like it has more ba
lance. But it still looks like Texas
is going to run away with it.
“We’ve got to improve now or
our chances are going to dimin
ish awfully fast.”
From the looks of the league
standings, Chandler and the
Aggies can count on the
Cougars and Longhorns mak
ing the tournament with no
trouble. Whereas the Razor-
backs usually get one of the top
three spots, they’ll have to light
Rice, Baylor and Texas Tech for
the two remaining tournament
berths.
the four remaining leij
series, they’ll finish 10-11 in|
league. During each of thep
two years, Texas A&M hasq
if led for the fourth tourney
with the same record — 10-I®q| 7l
Here’s how the SWC s J
ings look through the week
games:
As for the Aggies’ chances, if
they win two games in each of
Texas — 5-1
Houston — 7-2
Rice — 6-6
Baylor — 6-6
Arkansas — 6-6
TCU — 4-5
Texas Tech — 3-6
Texas A&M — 2-7
Aggie tennis teams split matches in high winds
The Aggie men’s tennis team
overcame a 7-2 road loss to the
Houston Cougars on Friday
afternoon to trounce the Rice
Owls by a score of 8-1 Saturday
in Houston.
Friday’s match with the
Cougars, played in the middle of
50-55 mph winds, was decided
in singles play, when UH won
Five of six matches. Only Kimmo
Alkio was able to win for Texas
A&M, defeating Houston’s
Dacio Campos 6-3, 1-6, 6-2.
Texas A&M coach David
Kent said the match with the
Cougars seemed “more like
handball,” as all the players had
to serve underhanded because
of the high winds. Tom Judson,
the Aggies’ No. 2 singles player,
was injured in singles play, but
was able to finish the match. He
didn’t play in doubles against
UH, nor did he play in Satur
day’s victory over the Owls.
Kent said he was pleased with
the victory over Rice, since Rice
had defeated the Cougars ear
lier in the season.
Texas A&M, which now has a
21-6 record on the year, hosts
Arkansas at 1:30 Friday after
noon at the Omar Smith Tennis
Center. The Aggies will play the
Texas Longhorns in Austin on
Saturday at 1:30.
The Aggie women’s team
raised its record to 15-7 on the
season with a 7-2 victory over
Houston Baptist University here
Saturday. Vanne Akagi, Teresa
Landry and Laura Hanna won
singles matches in straight sets
and Liliana Fernandez won in
three sets. Texas A&M won all
three of its doubles matches.
The women’s squad will host
Houston on Thursday at 1:30
p.m. and Texas Tech on Friday
afternoon at 1:30.
