By Nicole Smith

The heat and playing the No. 3
team in the nation were a little
too much to handle for the Texas
A&M Men’s Tennis team this
weekend.
The Aggies set forth to over
throw Texas Christian Universi
ty for the first time in two years
Saturday.
“We did play hard, but we can’t
say that we played well,” Assis
tant Head Men’s Tennis Coach
Charles Emley said. “Of course,
we are going to be disappointed
with ourselves, but we are not go
ing to be devastated by it.
much respect for the way they
played.”
Martinez was defeated by
TCU’s David Roditi 6-4, 6-4, but
won his doubles match with Eric
Horan against Ashley Fisher and
Jason Weir-Smith, 8-6.
With the loss, the Aggies drop
to 14-4 oh the season and 2-2 in
conference.
They will also be entering the
Southwest Conference Champi
onships as the No. 3 seed behind
TCU and Texas, respectively.
Now the Aggies hope to reverse
their fortunes when they face Rice
today at the Omar Smith Tennis
Complex and Baylor on April 16.

"We did play hard, but we can't say that we played
well ... but we are not going to be devastated by it."
— CHARLES EMLEY
Assistant Head Men's Tennis Coach
“They are one of the best teams
in the nation, we will just have to
uplift ourselves before the cham
pionships next week.”
Some of the players felt that
they could have played more
solid games.
“We all made too many er
rors,” senior captain Eduardo
Martinez said. “Some of the
shots we missed were too easy,
which helped them take the win
from us easily.
“I think we gave them too
