TheTexas A&M Women’s Tennis Team takes a trip to Fort Worth today to play the No. 23-ranked Horned Frogs of Texas Christian University. The Aggies need to put up another win after their two losses last weekend to Middle Ten nessee State University and Vanderbilt. The match against TCU is the last non-conference match for the Aggies, who face both Texas and Kansas next week. Coach Bob Kleinecke said the team needs to play more consistently against TCU than they did in their match with MTSU. “We had too many errors against Middle Ten nessee,” Kleinecke said. “We have to play with more consistency and composure, and we made some good strides on Sunday. We just have to keep it going.” Kleinecke said the TCU match will be a tough one, but that it is a good chance to bounce back from last weekend. He said they need to play well irYEAR • licl I By Colleen Staff w early and get their confidencelevelt " This is the best TCU team ini years,” Kleinecke said.

(AP) — Korleone Young, one of the nation’s top high school basketball players, is skip ping college to enter the NBA draft. “I’ve made this decision based on many hours of consultation with my family and friends,” he said today. Dressed in his gray and white Liniform and speaking at a news conference at Hargrave Military Academy, the 6-foot-7 forward said he’s wanted to play in the NBA since he was in grade school watching Julius Erving. “In my heart, I think I can be come a good NBA basketball player,” he said. Hargrave coach Scott Shepherd said Young visited Arkansas, Con necticut, Georgetown and UNLV this season and would have quali fied academically had he chosen to attend college. Young, a first-team Parade Mag azine All-American in his junior and senior years, has hired an agent, Shepherd said. But he would still be eligible to attend college in the fall if no NBA team drafts him June 24. Young hopes to be the fifth play er to enter the league straight out of high school since 1995, joining Kevin Garnett, Kobe Bryant, Tracy McGrady and Jermaine O’Neal. The only player to turn pro out of high school and not get drafted in that time was Taj McDavid of Palmeto High School in South Carolina in 1996. In the 1970s, Moses Malone. Bill Willoughby and Darryl Dawkins all jumped to the NBA from high school. Young transferred to Hargrave from Wichita, Kan., for his senior season and averaged 29.3 points and 11.3 rebounds for the Tigers postgraduate team, which plays junior colleges, college .1-95.
