The Texas A&M men’s ten

in two of three matches at the

best thing his players got was
experience.

the way he’ll take the victories,
too.
In Baton Rouge the Aggies
defeated Florida State, 7-2, and
Southeast Louisiana, 9-0. But
the Aggies lost 7-2 to 15th-
ranked LSU.
Kent said that Mark Smith,
Grant Connell and Greg Hill all
played well in singles, but the
team’s doubles play didn’t meet
his expectations.
“Most of our players aren’t
used to playing doubles,” he
said, “because they’ve played so
much singles in high school.”
The Aggies opened the sea
son with victories over Sam
Houston State and University
of Texas-San Antonio, then de
feated Lamar, Southwest Texas
State and Houston Baptist prior
to the LSU tournament.
But what the Aggies need
more than anything right now is
experience. The eight-man ros
ter features five top-flight
freshmen recruits.”
“This is the best freshmen
class in the history of Texas
A&M,” Kent said.
The top three freshmen are
Mark Smith, Grant Connell and
Marcel Vos.

among the recruits, was the
