Ags seek repeat at ITA toume
By Kevin Espenlaub
THE BATTALION
The first Intercollegiate Tennis Association Championship of
the season will take place next week, and the Texas A&M
women’s tennis team will be sending seven players to Los Angeles
to join the competition.
The ITA Riviera All-*American competition,
hosted by the Riviera Tennis Club for the 19th year,
is divided into 3 stages of qualification. The first
stage is a pre-qualifying round, which is being
played at the University of California-Los Angeles
(UCLA) on Oct. 6 and 7.
Aggies competing in singles play will be seniors
Leah Killen, Martina Nedorostova, and Majorie
Terburgh, junior Ashley Hedberg and sophomore
Roberta Spencer.
The tournament features one of the toughest
fields in college tennis.
“This tournament is probably the strongest, com
pared to the NCAA Championships, of the year,”
said women's tennis coach Bobby Kleinecke. “Our
main focus going into this tournament is the team
and to help ourselves play better for when the
spring team season comes around.
A good showing
at this tournament
can help individual
rankings that
will affect our team
going into the
next semester
Hedberg and Nedorostova will also compete in the pre-qualifyii
round. Winners will advance to the qualifying round.
Karlikova and sophomore Jessica Roland have earned a byeft
the pre-qualifying round and begin singles competition intheqi
ifying round October 9 and 10 at the Riviera Tennis Club.
The doubles team of Roland and Terburgh will also automatic
ly advance to the second round.
No Aggies have earned a bye into the fnii!
round, or Main Draw competition, that will lab
place Oct. 11-14.
Byes are based on individual rankings aa
include the top 10-ranked players in women’s into
collegiate competition
— Bobby Kleinecke
women’s tennis coach
Spots in the upper two stages are also reserve
for players who advance from competition in
lower levels.
The best showing at an ITA tournament
year for the Aggies was by the doubles team)
Roland and Hedberg who advanced tothesenif
finals of the Main Draw before being defeaia
in three sets by the then top-ranked duo)
Paola Palencia and Ipek Senoglu fti
Pepperdine University.
Their trip to the final-four was the farthesi

Baylor

4-0 to the Cornhuskers. In their
second Big 12 game, the Bears
fell 2-1 in overtime to Iowa
State. It was the first time
Baylor had lost to the Cyclones.
While freshman forward
Linsey Johnson has been out
standing for the Aggies, Baylor
has its own freshman phenome
non in forward April Robertson.
Robertson is leading the Bears
with five goals, but she did not
score a goal in either of the
Bear’s Big 12 games.
Before the showdown with
Baylor, the Aggies first face the
Houston Cougars tonight.
The Cougars are 2-5-1 and 1-
3 in Conference USA. but
Guerrieri said his team can not
overlook them.
“We don’t look at it that way,”
Guerrieri said. “If you look at it
that way, Colorado wasn't a very
good team. It will be a huge
game for them and they will play
very hard and physical.”
Colorado upset the Aggies by
tying them 2-2 in Boulder last
Sunday. They came into the
game with a record of 1-5.
The Aggies had tough road
trips during the last two weeks,
facing No. 4 Portland and No.
14 Washington at the
Husky/Nike Invitational and
then opening Big 12 play at
Texas Tech and Colorado.
However, the Aggies managed
to escape with a 2-1-1 record in
those games, 4-2-1 overall.
Guerrieri said that he is
excited to play some games in
College Station.
“We’re hoping that folks will
stick around from the Baylor
(football) game,” Guerrieri said.
“We're ranked as high as No. 10
and we have done all of this on
the road. We are hoping to
unveil this team at home."
