A&M middle blocker Margaret Spence and outside hitter Stacey Gildner were named to the all-tour nament team. Colorado State, ranked 14th in the nation, beat A&M 15-9, 15-5, 8- 15, 15-11. But A&M Coach A1 Givens said he wasn’t too disap pointed by the loss. “We’re definitely capable of beat ing Colorado State,” Givens said. “Other than our first two games that we were extremely flat and not tena cious, I felt we were successful. “We were able to rebound and played extremely well.” The Aggies beat LSU 15-6, 15-13, 8-15, 15-11 and Montana 15-11, Ij 13,15-8. Although Spence and Gildntr earned the honors, Givens said ht was especially pleased with theplaj of Dena Zalesky, who came offtlit bench in the Montana match and had three kills and six digs. A&M’s Kelli Kellen also plajed solid volleyball as she hit .400 against LSU and .428 against Montana. “That’s been the strength of out team this year,” Givens said. "1^ serve players are coming in and making contributions.” A&M’s Labuschagne falls in tennis finals By Loyd Brumfield Assistant Sports Editor Texas A&M’s Kim Labuschagne advanced to the finals of the West- wood Invitational Tennis Tourna ment in Austin over the weekend be fore losing to top-seeded Elvyn Barrable of Trinity 2-6, 3-6. In doubles, the second-seeded team of Labuschagne and A&M’s Karen Marshall made it to the finals before losing to Beverly Bowes and Ann Grousbeck, the No. 1 doubles team from the University of Texas. A&M Coach Bobby Kleinecke praised Labuschagne’s play, but said he had mixed feelings about the overall performances of his players. “I think it’s obvious that Kim had a fantastic tournament,” he said. “She’s having the best year of her ca reer so far and she’s shown that her hard work has paid off. As far as the rest of the team goes, the people who lost their matches know what they need to work on.” In the first round of the singles tournament, third-seeded Labus chagne beat Lori Cronk of Rice 6-0, 6-3. She defeated Lynda Tate of Ag football SMU 6-0, 6-1, in second-round play. Labuschagne got by Trinity’s Dab ney Langhorne in the quarterfinals 6-1, 7-6, and defeated Rene Simpson of TCU in the semifinals 6-2, 6-3. Labuschagne and Marshall breezed through the doubles tour nament by beating SMU’s Lisa Pam- intuan and Tammy Christensen 6-3, 6-0. In the quarterfinals, Labus chagne and Marshall battled Simp son and Teresa Dobson of TCU for a 5-7, 6-4, 6-3 win. In the semifinal round, Labus chagne and Marshall won another tough battle, this time beating Trin ity’s Jane Holden and Ann Hulbert 6-4, 3-6, 6-3. In the consolation Finals, A&M’s Laura Liong lost to Kilmany Water man of Trinity 1-6, 2-6. “Overall we had an average tour nament,” Kleinecke said. “The team as a whole is playing fairly well, but there still is an awful lot of things we need to work on.” A&M now takes a two-week break before its next tournament, the Louisiana State University Invitatio nal in Baton Rouge. Ag women's golf team tied for 4th MEMPHIS, Tenn. - The Texas A&M women’s golf team is tied for fourth place after one round of play at the Women’s In- tercollegfiate Golf Tournament at the Colonial Country Club. South Carolina leads the tour ney with a combined stroke total of 302. Duke is second with 304, followed by Alabama with 308. The Aggies are tied with Loui siana State at 313 strokes. In individual play, AdrianaPe- nuela and Manana Oyanguren are the top Aggies with a score of 76. Fiona Connor shot a 78, while Hollie Frizzell turned in an 83 Caroline Basarab, seeing her first collegiate action for A&M, shot an 85. (continued from page 7) Aggies, the Red Raiders managed to score late in the fourth quarter to downgrade the outcome from hu miliating to just embarrassing. “We wanted the shutout,” de fensive end Rod Saddler said. “But we have some guys on the second and third team that can play. They deserved to play.” The only negative aspect of the game was the A&M penalties. The Aggies had 17 flags thrown at them for 152 yards in losses, a new team record. “Those penalties are correctable penalties,” A&M Coach Jackie Sher rill said. What’s also correctable is the few dropped passes and tipped balls that have cost A&M in its first four out ings. The Aggies are prime for a mis take-free game. It may happen this Saturday against Houston in the Astrodome, a place the Aggies haven’t won in since 1952. But it would be even better for A&M the following week against Baylor — because revenge can be sweet.
