Medea, a chilling tale of a woman obsessed with vengence, provides an evening of sustained sus pense and horror coupled with dignity and eloquence. The critics called Medea: “Magnificent” “One of the world’s greatest plays!” “A torrent of passion and terror!” Please join us for an evening of great tragedy!

Hammons Sports Writer The Texas A&M women’s tennis team received its first real test of the season last weekend — and was dealt its first loss. But Friday’s 5-4 cliffhanger of a loss to Louisiana State did not seem to affect the women’s play, as they were able to rebound from the set back to defeat South Florida 7-2. The Aggies are now 5-1 on the season. The match with LSU came down to the last set of the day, featuring No. 1 doubles team Kim Labus- chagne and Lisa Keller of A&M against twin sisters Dana De and De Ann Worthington of the Tigers. The Aggies had a chance to win the match in the second set, but lost in a tiebreaker. After the match re sumed play the next day at Briar- crest Country Club, LSU took com mand of the match, winning the first five games and coasting to a 5-7, 7-6 (7-3), 6-2 victory. A&M Coach Bobby Kleinecke said he was disappointed in the outcome of the match, but not with his team’s effort. He said the toughest thing about the loss would be convincing the players that they played well. “I know it sounds corny,” Klei necke said, “but the only way you learn is by adversity.” He said last year’s team always played better after a setback like this team received at the Tigers’ hands, and he said he expected this year’s team to react similarly. Saturday’s action made Kleinecke sound like a prophet. The Aggies were able to snake off the loss and play a good match against USF. “We picked up the level of our game,” Kleinecke said. “We learned from (the LSU match). This team (USF) is good but not as strong as LSU. For us to beat them 7-2 is pret ty good.” The key match of Saturday’s ac tion was the No. 4 singles match be tween Kellie Dorman of A&M and Gina Read of South Florida. With the Aggies holding a 3-2 lead in the contest, Read was one game away from sending the final singles match of the day to a third set. But Dorman tied it at 6-6 and raced through the tiebreaker for a 6- 3, 7-6 (7-1) victory and a 4-2 lead for A&M. “Kellie’s match game gave us con fidence,” Kleinecke said. “She did a great job.” The Aggies go on the road to play Utah in Salt Lake City Wednesday and will be in Provo for the BYU In vitational Thursday through Satur day. A&M grabs 2 out of 3 in men’s tennis play OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The Texas A&M men’s tennis team won two out of three matches at the Oklahoma State 4- Way Indoor Tennis Tournament this weekend at Oklahoma City, Okla. A&M defeated tennis power Trinity 8-1 and downed Okla homa University by a 6-3 count; the Aggies’ only loss in the tour nament was to OSU 5-4. A&M Coach David Kent said the Aggies could have easily come away undefeated from the week end’s action. “We came within an eyelash of beating OSU,” Kent said. The team’s only setback to Trinity came in No. 1 singles play with A&M ’s Dean Goldfine fall ing to Trinity’s Maurieio Silva 6- 7, 6-4, 2-6. In other singles action, A&M’s Marcel Vos (No. 2) defeated Chris Geer 7-5, 6-4; Dean John son of A&M (No. 3) stopped Pat Sundh 6-4, 6-1; Brent Haygarth (No.4) beat Eno Polo 6-3, 6-4; and No. 5 freshman Shaun O’ Donovan handled Redek Kocek 6-1,6-0. In doubles play, A&M’s James Frank replaced Goldfine and joined Vos to make up A&M’s No. 1 team, which defeated Silva and Kocek 6-3, 7-5; Haygarth and Johnson downed Greer and Sundh 6-4, 4-6, 6-2; and the No. 3 duo of O’ Donovan and Steve Kennedy defeated Polo and Chad Marsh 6-4, 6-4. Kent was pleased with the out come of the tournament, and es pecially the big win over Trinity. “A win over Trinity is not bad,” he said. “I’ll take a win over them anytime.” The Aggies return to the Omar Smith Tennis Center Friday to take on Southwest Texas State, and Saturday A&M battles Ar kansas-Little Rock. Both matches begin at 1:30 p.m. Raiders devastate Lady Ags LUBBOCK (AP) — The Texas A&M women’s basketball team found out over the weekend that shooting a mere 30 percent from the floor against a good team like Texas Tech usually gets you beat. In this case, the Lady Aggies took it on the chin 72-49 against the Red Raiders Saturday night in Lubbock Municipal Coliseum. A&M now stands at 8-14 on the year and 4-8 in the Southwest Con ference. Texas Tech raises its record to 15-9 overall and 8-5 in SWC play. The game marked the return of A&M guard Donna Roper from gall bladder surgery. She managed 10 points to tie forward Evelyn Sanders as high scorer for the Lady Aggies' Texas Tech center Stacey Siebert caused all kinds of problems for A&M. Siebert came off the bench to block seven shots and score 13 points. “We’re really down now,” A&M Coach Lynn Hickey said. “We just had a really tough time shooting to night. We weren’t making anything happen on offense. “When you shoot 26 percent in the first half, it kills you. We got so far down that once we started mov ing the ball it was too late to try to play catch-up.” The Lady Aggies remained in front of Baylor for the last spot in the SWC post-season tournament by a half game and will face the Univer sity of Houston Wednesday at 5 p.m. in Hofeinz Pavilion in Houston. ‘Magic’ tricks lift LA over Boston 106-103 Lakers take season series INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Earvin “Magic” Johnson scored 39 points and led Los Angeles back from a 17-point third-quar ter deficit to a 106-103 victory over the Boston Celtics, giving the Lakers the best record in the NBA. Johnson scored eight points over the final S'A minutes, in cluding two clinching free throws with four seconds to play, to lift the Lakers to their 38tn victory in 50 games this season, one game better than the Celtics.

A layup by Robert Parish, who scored 20 points, got Boston within a point, setting the stage for Johnson to sink the two clinching free throws with four seconds to play. Larry Bird, who finished with 20 points, missed a desperation three-pointer at the buzzer. James Worthy added 26 points for the Lakers, who swept their two-game series this year with Boston.
