A&M men’s swimming coach Mel Nash, “so everybody
, really made a commitment to that meet at the end of the
year and, in places, we have to take our lumps during meets
like this. Fortunately, we still got second and now we go
in with a certain level of confidence into NCAAs.”
While individual Aggie swimmers struggled, the A&M
relays proved to be a strong point during the meet. A&M
finished second in the 400-yard medley, the 200-yard med
ley and 400-yard freestyle relays and third in the 200-yard
freestyle and 800-yard freestyle relays.
The last event of the meet, the 400-yard freestyle relay,
turned out to be one of the Aggies’ most exciting events.
A&M senior Keven Kehlenbach, secured second place for
the Aggies in the event by pulling away from Iowa State’s
Jeff Gahan in the last leg of the relay.
All six A&M seniors - Howard, Kehlenbach, Michael
Colligan, Michael Greene, David Morrow and Alfred
Mansour - placed in the top eight in one or more events.
However, the Aggie swimmer who had one of the best per
formances was junior Riley Janes.
Despite being unrested, Janes placed second in the 100-
yard backstroke with an NCAA automatic time, placed
ninth in the 100-yard freestyle with a consideration time
and was on all three second-place relays.
Up next for the Aggie divers is the Zone D Diving
Championships March 9-10, which will determine if they
will compete in the NCAA championships. The NCAAs
will be hosted by A&M on March 22-24.

portion of the Indoor National
Archery tournament.
Zorn shot a 577 out of 600 Friday
during the first round of the tourna
ment and a 579 Satur
day. The 579 was just 11
points off of current in
door world record of
590 held by Christie
Bisco of the United
States. Zorn was
plagued by an abdomi
nal injury this weekend,
but she said she thought
she should have done
better.
“I didn’t shoot the
way I wanted to,” Zorn
said. “I’m standing well
against everyone that’s
here, but I don’t know
how that will translate
into the national rank
ings. Ever since Friday I
have had an ace ban
dage holding me up
right, and I haven’t been
able to twist or bend. It’s
very painful, but I
should have shot better
anyway.”

Freshman Lorinda Cohen fin
ished second in recurve, and senior
teammate Stacie Grange placed
third. On the compound side, fresh
man Brandy Foreman placed sec
ond, and senior Dianne Cornish
placed third, giving the Aggies a
clean sweep for the top spots in each
category. .
“I didn’t do that well this tounjiar
ment, Cohen said. “My scores w'^
really down compared to what
been practicing. My mental gafti^
wasn’t in it, but now I know what I
have to do to get ready for outdoors,”
In team competition, the Aggies’
compound team of Zorn, Cornisl
and Foreman captured first by de*-
feating the University of Texas
3,373-3,158. The recurve team of
Milchanowski, Cohen and Grange
also placed first by defeating TexaS
3,237-2,668.
All the Aggies can do now is sit
back and wait to see how the other
Indoor National tournaments play
out. Up next for the A&M squad is
the outdoor archery season, which
kicks off with the Lone Star FITA
tournament that is held in Austin
March 31.
