By Jeff Allen THE BATTALION The No. 10 Texas A&M men’s tennis team will continue Big 12 play this weekend as it heads across the Red River to face two conference rivals: Oklahoma University and Oklahoma State University. The Aggies, who are back into the nation’s Top 10 for the first time since early February, extended their win streak to 10 games with a victory against No. 24 Rice on Wednesday. The two matches in Oklahoma will be only the second and third conference matches for the Aggies and mark the first time this year that they have faced this level of challenge on the road. “Any Big 12 match is going to be tricky,” said A&M Head Coach Tim Cass. “Oklahoma has been a strong tennis team, so I think the challenge for us will be playing on the road and recognizing that this is a Big 12 match.” The match is not coming at the best time for the Sooners (12-5,0- 2 Big 12). The team is fresh off a 6-1 loss in a match against Wichita State University last Wednesday. The Sooners, who looked to be a favorite in the match, dropped all six singles matches after sweeping the dou bles portion of the contest. The Aggies defeated the same Wichita State team 7-0 on March 18. “Our season has been a series of ups and downs,” said Oklahoma Head Coach Paul Lockwood. “Our two losses to the University of San Francisco and Wichita Sate have been most disappointing. We have not met our expectations.” JP BEATO III • THE BATTALION Senior Ryan Newport returns a shot on court one against the University of Alabama Crimson Tide last Saturday at the A&M Tennis Center. The match carries greater sig nificance than normal for the A&M men because of the level of competition found throughout the conference. The team has set high expectations for the very chal lenging Big 12. “For us to only sponsor eight teams in the Big 12, and of that we will probably have six of them in the tournament, it shows that our conference is extremely tough,” Cass said. The Aggies will head out of Nonnan after the match to move on to Stillwater to face another Oklahoma State. After coming from a match against a young Sooner team, the Aggies will be facing a Cowboy team that has been on a roll this season, despite their relatively low national rank ing. The Cowboys (8-2) are in the midst of a five-game homestand, which kicked off last Tuesday with a 6-1 win over Abilene Christian University. “They are off to a really good start,” Cass said. “Rumor is that they could end up top 25 by the time the year’s done.” The Aggies enter the game with a group of players that has performed up to expectations so far this year. The No. 16 combina tion of senior Ryan Newport and sophomore Lester Cook will lead the team at doubles once again. The duo suffered its first loss this season on Wednesday when it dropped a close match to the national No. 2 team from Rice. The Aggies will be taking on the Sooners Saturday in Norman at noon, and they will face the Cowboys at noon on Sunday. Track teams head to Houston By Marcus White THE BATTALION A&M senior Katy Doyle has been looking for ward to Saturday for nearly two years. It’s not that she particularly enjoys the Tom Tellez Invitational Track and Field Meet, or that she will be competing in her hometown of Houston. Doyle is simply excited to compete at all. For the first time since undergoing surgery to repair a tendon in her elbow, the two-time All- American will be competing in the women’s javelin. Doyle had won the Big 12 individual championship in the women’s javelin and finished fourth in the 2000 Olympic Trials before the injury sidelined her with 18 grueling months of rehabilitation. “It was a very long process and it was hard, because the one thing that 1 loved to do the most was to throw,” Doyle said. “I’m ready to start throwing again. I don’t have to worry about anything, so I’m not going to. I just want to throw.” Doyle will be one of many members of the Texas A&M men’s and women’s track and field teams heading south this weekend to the University of Houston’s Lewis/Tellez Track and Field Complex. The Aggies hope to duplicate the success they enjoyed last weekend at the College Station Relays where they won nine gold medals on the way to picking up 12 NCAA regional qualifying bids. Leading the way for A&M will be Doyle and the formidable Aggie javelin corps. Junior Luke Marrs, sophomore Jarrod Mathews and freshman Anthony Alfier all finished among the top four collegians competing on the men’s side, while freshman Rachel Walker was named Big 12 Track and Field Female Athlete of the Week for her first-place regional qual ifying performance last week. “Posting a victory in your first-ever collegiate competition is a great way to start your college career,” said A&M Associate Head Coach Ed Marcinkiewicz. “This is a tremendous honor for Rachel. I’m proud of the way she competed last weekend. She’s a tremendous talent and her best days are still ahead of her.” In the track events, the Aggies will be trying out some athletes in new events and mixing up the relay teams. Though the Aggie men’s 400-meter relay team took home first place last week, A&M Head Coach Ted Nelson believes they can do better. “We are going to be running different teams this week to see how they can improve their times. They ran well last week, but we believe they can do better,” Nelson said. “Track is such a psycho logical sport... It will be interesting to see how well they mesh.” Also tightening its screws in Houston this week end will be perennial track and field powerhouse Texas Christian University. The Homed Frogs cap tured three NCAA regional qualifying bids last week in the Dr. Pepper Invitation at Baylor University’s Hart/Patterson Complex. “I think this is the best shape our women have been in, in a long time,” said TCU Head Coach Monte Stratton. “With warmer weather this week end, I expect them to do extremely well.” Teams competing in the Tom Tellez Invitational include Baylor, Seton Hall, Syracuse, A&M and TCU, along with Texas men’s and Illinois women’s teams.
