on her to get any (coaching) tasks
handled."
Guerrieri said that one of the
differences between coaching at
A&M and his past coaching posi
tions was that A&M placed a
strong emphasis on strength and
conditioning.
Head strength and condition
ing coach Mike Clark put together
the Lady Aggies' conditioning
program, and Guerrieri said grad
uate strength coach Trey Teichel-
man was very good at executing
the program for the women.
Hlista, who is currently the
top-ranked mountain biker in
Texas, said that Teichelman's pro-
"With Trey, I felt more explo
sive and stronger than I have ever
been." Hlista said.
Rebe and Hlista said that Guer
rieri was the most important rea
son for the success of the Lady
Aggies compared to last year, no
matter how he tries to deflect
credit away from himself.
"Under coach Guerrieri, I liked
it more because I can always re
spect him," Hlista said. "By
putting Kathi in on drills he
proved to us why we should do
our drills."
Rebe said that the difference
this season was that Guerrieri had
a definite strategy for the team
and he made sure the Lady Ag
gies were always striving to exe
cute their strategy.
Hlista said that another impor
tant difference from last year's
team was that Guerrieri stressed
teamwork through discipline in
practice.
"He would treat everyone the
same," Hlista said. "If a freshman
or senior got out of line he treated
us all the same."
Correction
The Battalion published a
women's soccer story on
Wednesday that had run last
week previewing last week's
games.
There are no games this
weekend, as the story indicat
ed, the Battalion regrets the
error.

same expectations that the Lady
Aggies do.
"This team has the potential
to be as good as the 1985-86
team," Kent said. "I consider
them to be one of the best we've
had here.
"I'm excited, but it's a cau
tious excitement because we
have a lot of work to do to reach
where we want to be. We want
to be one of the top 15 or 20
teams in the nation, and we can
do it."
The 1985-1986 squad went
21-10 and sent two singles play
ers and one doubles team to the
NCAA tournament. Kent said
he has the players to accomplish
that feat and mentioned several
players that should stand out,
notably sophomore Blake Arrant
and senior Mark Weaver.
"We're having success from
everyone on this team, and the
spring is looking even better,"
Kent said. "Blake Arrant has
been working hard all fall, and
we're expecting him great things
from him.
"And anytime you have Mark
Weaver on your team, good
things happen."
Weaver said he is looking for
his senior year to be his best so
far, and is currently ranked in
the top 10 in singles.
"We're definitely very capa
ble of being a top 25 team,"
Weaver said. "This is as good a
team as we've had in my years
here. There's talent at every lev
el, and we should only get
stronger."
Arrant said that the young
players will make the big differ
ence this year.
"The biggest thing I've no
ticed is how good the freshmen
are. They're pushing us and
making us play much better,"
Arrant said. "That's important
because you have competition
every day instead of just during
matches/'
Kent said that the University
of Texas should prove to be the
men's toughest foe, also, but
warned against the rest of the
Southwest Conference, as well.
"Texas is always tough, and
this year they are one of the na
tion's best teams, if not the best,"
Kent said.
"The Southwest Conference
is probably the best conference
in tennis - that's usually the Pac-
10, but not this year.
"Texas Christian has a really
good team this year and any
body in the conference will he
tough, but when all the smoke
clears, it should be us and
Texas."
Weaver said Texas is beatable
and its high expectations may
come crashing down against an
upstart A&M squad.
"It's not going to be easy, but
we're going to go in there with
nothing to lose, and they're go
ing to oe the ones that are tight/'
Weaver said.
"That's got to work in our fa
vor."

"Most people didn't know
him," Barone said. "He was a
guy with a tremendous personal
ity. He had worked his way up
the coaching ladder (and) was a
coach that took his teams to the
highest level."
Barone reminisced over one of
the most memorable moments
that he shared vy;ij:h Valvano.
Several years ago when the two
had a chance to face each other
in a preseason game in Hawaii,
Barone, then in his third year at
Creighton University, lost the
game. But it was the winning
Valvano that brought inspiration
to the defeated coach and his
team.
"After the game, he came into
our locker room and told us that
we played really well and that
we had a real chance to be
great."
As is turned out, Barone guid
ed that team to consecutive ap
pearances in the NCAA post-sea
son tournament.
"The thing about Jim was, he
was a player's coach," Barone
said. "He had that special bond
between himself and his play
ers."
Barone wanted people to
know that this year's symbol of
inspiration is not in any way a
memorial of Valvano.
"The 'V' is not a dedication of
the season to him," Barone said.
"I think Jim wouldn't like that.
The 'V' is for his spirit. He
fought cancer for almost a year
and he tried to show the spirit of
life.
"The spirit of life is what we
are trying to capture. Valvano's
character was something that
helped everyone and showed
that he had true zest for life."
Barone said that the team has
spent time talking about what
they want to get out of the sea
son and that they chose the "V"
because after deciding to remem
ber the importance of enjoying
life's precious time whether
alone or on the court in front of
thousands.
"The team doesn't want to
throw away their minutes, they
want to maximize their time,"
Barone said. "That was the spirit
of Jim Valvano."
The team has chosen one spe
cific quote of Valvano that hangs
in the men's locker room at G.
Rollie White Coliseum. Barone
and the players chose the quote
because they believe it embodied
the spirit of the late Valvano.
"You have to take time each
day to think a little, laugh a little,
and cry a little to establish a full
day," the late coach said.
"If you do that every day, you
have had an emotional and ex
hausting day."
“The Nutcracker”
The magic of “The Nutcracker” has
captured the imaginations of countless
generations. Now, this memorable tale will
be brought to life with a new energy and
technical brilliance only the world-renowned
Moscow Classical Ballet can provide. From
the beginning of the Stahlbaum Christmas
party, to the duel between the Nutcracker
and the Mouse King, you'll see why “The
Nutcracker” remains a holiday favorite.
