the Saturday matches were played
against UTSA.
“UTSA may be outmanned, but
you can’t take anything for granted,”
Kent said. “They have some talent
on their team and they will be ready
to play. It should be a good tennis
match.”
It was indeed a good tennis match
... for Aggie fans, that is.
The Aggies completed a weekend
sweep by manhandling UTSA 7-1
behind solid play from Matt Zisette,
who had a rough Friday.
Zisette rebounded from his Friday
loss with a victory over an old neme
sis, UTSA’s Roland Cuellar, 6-2, 6-4.
Cuellar had beaten Zisette at the
Southwest Regional Championships
during the fall.
The Ags other senior player, Ken
nedy, suffered the only setback of
the day, succumbing 5-7, 6-4, 4-6, to
Giovanni Casanova.
The best performance of the day
definitely belonged to Phillips, who
manhandled UTSA’s Jon Hernan
dez, 6-0, 6-1.
“Scott Phillips is just playing excel
lent tennis,” Kent said. “He’s rolling
through on his shots and simply
overpowering his opponents. He’s
going to be a good one for us for
years to come.
“Matt Zisette also played well to
day and got a win over Cuellar, who
had given him trouble in the past.”
Brown dominated his opponent
again, beating UTSA’s Ryan Reber,
6-4,6-0.
Johnson also scored a victory after
a tough first set, 7-6, 6-1, over Erik
Baar, while Weaver struggled early
as well, eventually winning over Tim
Schmuetscher, 7-6, 6-4.
In doubles play, the Aggies won
both of their court matches, high
lighted by the Zisette/Johnson team
beating Schmuetscher and Reber, 7-
5, 6-0.
Also scoring a victory were
Weaver and Phillips, 6-2, 6-4, over
Cuellar and Hernandez.

Astros face future
HOUSTON (AP) — Astros
pitcher Mike Scott, a highly touted
trade prospect through most of last
season, is one of the few Houston
pitching veterans returning for the
1991 season.
And while the
former Cy Young
Award winner
feels confident
with his repaired
right shoulder,
he says he has
mixed sentiments
about the year
ahead.
“Houston has been great,” Scott
said from his home in Laguna Ni-
fuel, Calif. “I think it’s the best place
:o play, other than maybe Anaheim.
L ’ve had a great run there, but I also
want to get that World Series ring.
You’ve got to be honest. We’re re-
luilding.”
Scott, 35, is one of the few players
left from a nucleus of experienced
performers who carried the Astros
through much of the 1980s. He won
the Cy Young Award in 1986 and
helped the Astros win the National
League West that year. Now the
team’s prospects remain uncertain.
“I don’t know what their plans
are,” Scott said of the Houston man
agement. “First I have to prove I’m
healthy, and I don’t think that’ll be a
problem.”
Scott struggled with a shoulder in
jury during the 1990 season and was
able to correct a stride flaw to finish
the year at 9-13 with a 3.81 ERA, up
from a 2-6 and a 5.53 ERA by early
June.
Scott had arthroscopic surgery on
his shoulder Dec. 11. He has been
rehabilitating it, working with free
weights since then.
He hasn’t tried pitching. In fact,
he was asked not to throw until
spring training begins Feb. 22 in Kis
simmee, Fla.
“I don’t throw until I get to spring
training anyway, so it (the injury)
isn’t holding me back as far as that’s
concerned,” he told The Houston
Post.
But Scott already has heard the
rumors that he still could be traded
if his arm is whole and he displays
his characteristic effectiveness.
He has remained neutral about
his feelings on the loss of other vet
eran teammates — Dave Smith,
Danny Darwin, Terry Puhl, Glenn
Davis, Juan Agosto — who left the
team through free agency, release or
trade.
“They were good friends,” Scott
said. “You can’t just blow it off and
say, ‘That’s just baseball.’” But as a
professional move, Scott would say
only that “we have nothing to show
for it.”
That’s (management’s) decision
to make,” Scott said. “I didn’t think
the last three or four years we were
that far away (from winning a divi
sion title).”
Scott doesn’t discount the possibil
ity that the Astros could be contend
ers in the future.
“Oakland was awful a few years
before they started winning,” Scott
said. “The next couple of years is
?oing to be a little bit of a struggle.”
The trend of cutting loose high-
priced veterans started in the 1988
offseason when the Astros let Nolan
Ryan go.
He later signed a contract with the
Texas Rangers and collected his
5,000th strikeout and his 300th win.
Ryan will pitch for the Rangers
again this year.
Then he said
