CALL PAULL RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 776-0400 Agassi plays through critics ‘Critics are cntics, and there will always be critics’ KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. (AP) — Andre Agassi doubts that winning tournaments will win over detractors who regard him as a brash flash in the pan. Agassi beat Stefan Edberg in four sets Sunday to capture the Interna tional Players Championships for his second title this year. “Critics are critics, and there will always be critics,” Agassi said. “They’ll always Find stuff to criticize. If I silence them in this way, they’re going to find something else. I’m not really concerned with that too much.” Agassi, who turns 20 next month, has been faulted for everything from his denim shorts to his recent withdrawal from the U.S. Davis Cup Kerfeld wilts as Astros dn game to Mets team. And when he captured just one tournament last year after win ning six during a banner 1988 sea son, he was labeled as overrated. But Agassi’s game is on the rise again. The 6-1, 6-4, 0-6, 6-2 victory over Edberg avenged a four-set loss to the Swede two weeks earlier at a tournament in Indian Wells, Calif. “I try to get better every time I go out there,” Agassi said. The tournament boosted Edberg from third to second in the world rankings and Agassi from fifth to fourth. Agassi was as high as third in 1988 but slipped to seventh last year. “I don’t feel I turned anything around until December, when I had some time off to get away from things and get renewed emotionally and physically,” Agassi said. “I think that was the turning point.” At times last year, Agassi said, he considered quitting. But now he’s working harder than ever at a sport where stamina often separates win ners from losers. “I have a new trainer, Gil Reyes, and he knows what he’s doing,” Agassi said. “We really get along well, he motivates me well and I’m paying the price, you know?” Agassi, 5-foot-ll and 155 pounds, runs a lot and lifts weights to strengthen both his upper and lower body. The regimen has created a more patient player who doesn’t mind long points, long sets or long matches. KISSIMMEE, Fla. (AP)-3 New York Mets broke a 1-1 dew three runs each in the eighi ninth innings Monday to openo 1990 exhibition season with a! win over the Houston Astros.

Tennis team split pair with TCU, Baylor Baseball considering dove size enforcement The Texas A&M men’s tennis team was challenged by more than just the weather this weekend. Fri day afternoon, the Aggies lost a match 7-2 to Texas Christian but on Saturday, they came back to defeat Baylor 6-0 despite strong winds and cold weather. The Aggies’ split last weekend gives them a 12-5 record overall and 1-3 in the Southwest Conference. The Horned Frogs, rated 11th in the Volvo/Intercollegiate Tennis Coaches Association rankings, re main undefeated in conference play. A&M was led by a stellar perfor mance by No. 1 singles’ player, se nior Shaun O’Donovan. In a hard-fought match Friday, O’Donovan defeated TCU’s Luis Ruette, 7-6, 1-6, 7-5. Ruette is ranked 21st in the country. “I cannot say enough about the performance of Shaun O’Donovan,” head coach David Kent said. “We were outplayed today,” Kent said. “We have no excuses.” PLANT CITY, Fla. (AP) — New leather is being broken in and new complaints are breaking out as base ball moves to eliminate oversized gloves. A decision by the American and National leagues to enforce existing restrictions on glove size isn’t sitting well with players accustomed to snagging fly balls with big webs. “He hits it and I catch it, that’s the name of the game,” Reds outfielder Herm Winningham said. “I don’t care if I have a bushel basket out there.” Reds players learned of the crack down from a glove manufacturer who visited training camp. The gripes started immediately. “How many balls nave they caught? Who gives them the right to say what gloves we can use?” out fielder Eric Davis said. The players measured their gloves to see if they meet the 12-inch limit from the top of the web to the palm. Both failed: Winningham’s glove measured 14 inches, Davis’ was 13. “I’m using it,” Davis insisted. The restrictions on glove size have been on the books for years. NL spokeswoman Katy Feeney said Monday the leagues are enforcing them this year in part because play ers are using larger gloves. “More gloves have become over sized lately,” she said. “If they see a player with an oversized glove, they’re going to ask him to use a reg ulation glove.” There’s no argument that gloves have inched well beyond the limits in recent years. For example, Winning- ham’s 14-inch model resembles a softball glove. “I’ll tell you for certain, last year some of the gloves were too big,” Manager Lou Piniella said. “I saw some gloves on the Yankees that looked like loaves of bread.” “It will put more offense into the game,” Winningham said. Ag golf team places 10th in Austin tourne Austin is not always a nict place for Aggies. At least thais what the A&M’s men’s golf teais' found out this weekend. The /if gies finished tenth in a field of 15 with rounds of 306-305-307 for; total of918 at the Morris William Intercollegiate at Austin’s Barton Creek Country Club. “We didn’t play real well,’ head coach Bob Ellis said. "I W pleased to see some of the players had some decent rounds. “But there were no consistent!' good rounds and no good fur ishes as far as totals are concer ned.” Top-ranked Oklahoma Statf and No. 2 Arizona State placed first and second. Defending Southwest Conference champion Texas finished third and power house Oklahoma followed ik Longhorns, finishing fourth Aggie junior Bobby Gee let A&M antf tied for 41st.
