SPORTS THE BATTALION Tuesday,January 21, 2003 RANDAL FORD • THE BATTALION Sophomore swimmer Tiffany Moore competes Sunday at the A&M Student Recreation Center against the University of Texas Longhorns. No. 5 UT defeated the Aggies 196-104 in the meet. UT beats women’s swimming; men’s team wins on Saturday By Jeff Allen THE BATTALION The No. 23 Texas A&M women’s swimming and diving team members knew that an upset of national power No. 5 University of Texas wasn't going to come easily on Sunday, even in their home pool at the Student Rec Center Natatorium. As it turned out, they were right. The Longhorns (4-3) car ried 14 of the 16 events to defeat the Aggies 196-104. Despite the lopsided score, the meet wasn’t a story of total domination. The Aggie women (7-3) claimed I 1 second place finishes, as well as both dis tance swims, the 1,000 meter and 500 meter freestyle. Freshman Paty Villareal won the 1,000, while teammate freshman Katie Francher swam a personal season best 4:56.26 to claim the 500. Despite the women’s loss to Texas, the weekend was not a total wash for the A&M swim ming and diving programs. Both the men and women were able to defend their home pool on Saturday with solid victo ries against Louisiana State University, with the added bonus of a resounding victory for the women against Rice. “We were really excited after last year’s close meet (against LSU),” said sophomore Ashley Roark. “It was exciting that we stepped up and it went really well...and that we got close to our best time already, especial ly just coming back off our training trip.” Much of the women’s suc cess can be attributed to a quick start, jumping out to an early lead against LSU (4-4) and Rice (2-3) by claiming both the top two spots in the first event, the 200-medley relay. “That was big,” said women’s head coach Steve Bultman. “We talked about how big the relay would be and we knew that it was a relay we could win. We also knew it was going to be close. There were a bunch of events we thought would be close and they turned out to be. It was a big help to get started like that.” The Aggies were led by Roark, who set two season best times in claiming first in both the 100 and 200 breaststroke, while also winning the 200 individual medley. The Aggies went on to put away the Tigers with a convincing 170-128 score, and dominated Rice, taking down the Owls 175-90. For the men, (3-2) it was less a story of a quick start than that of total domination, which the 186-104 score does not com pletely tell. The men consistent ly claimed the top spot, winning 12 of the 16 events, as well as SPORTS IN BRIEF : WHICH AG’S SMARTER?

The Aggie duo defeated teams from Texas Christian University and Ohio State before defeat ing the No. 30 team of Jimmy Haney and Pete Stroer from the University of Texas, 8-5 in semi final action. The Aggies were matched up with the No. 1 nationally-ranked team of brothers Richard and William Barker from Rice in the finals on Sunday and fell, 8-2. The Aggie team will begin its season of dual match play Saturday with a triple-header at the A&M Tennis Center. The team is opening the season ranked No. 13 and will be hosting Texas A&M-Corpus Christ! at 10 a.m., Texas-Pan American at 1 p.m. and Trinity at 4 p.m. Track and field starts season with eight golds at OU Classic The Texas A&M men’s and women's track and field teams opened the 2003 indoor schedule with a strong performance at the Oklahoma Track Classic on Saturday at the Mosier Indoor Facility. The A&M squads combined for eight gold medals, including five from the women’s team and three from the men’s. The Aggies swept the golds in the men’s and women’s high jump. Junior Ellison Collins won the men’s high jump and senior Robyn Burkhardt won the women’s competition. The teams also swept the pole vaulting golds. Other first place finishes for the women’s team included the long jump, the mile run and in the shotput competition.

We rested (beforehand), but not as much as I thought it would take to get to those performances.” The Aggie victory was a team effort. Freshmen Devin Saez, Matt Neal and Alex Dawson all claimed the first wins of their college career. Saez marked his lifetime best time of 1:49.78 in the 200 butterfly, a time that is good for 10th on the A&M all- time list. Dawson set a season best with his win in the 200-indi vidual medley. “As a freshman I was unsure of what to expect (from LSU),” Neal said. “We trained so hard over Christmas and this whole week looked better everyday. I knew we were going to swim fast.” Another surprise for the Aggies was the performance of freshman Mark Solomon. Just days away from scheduled knee surgery, Solomon was able to post a personal season and collegiate best time of 9:31.03 in the 1,000 freestyle, trailing only teammate senior Patrick Dideum, who also posted a season best time in winning the event. /MicroAge COLLEGE STATION Serrice am! sot nt ions that trork.
