Show Signpost-Tuesday, May 7, 1985 13 Veasey, McGlade shine as 'Cats take title (con I'd. from page II) 3-4, NAU 2-5, Montana State 2-5, and Idaho State 0-7. The tournament was one of the most balanced in recent years, and all the matches were good contests.Individually, the 'Cats got some fine performances from all the members of the team. Andrew Veasey and Steve McGlade were the overall champions in their divisions while the rest of the 'Cats took three seconds and a third. Jonas Ehrlin finished with a 6-1 record, his only loss coming to the No. 1 singles champion Martin Gagnon. Ehrlin beat Gagnori earlier this year but was not able to top the UNR ace, losing in three sets. Though he was disappointed with second place, Ehrlin has been selected to represent District Seven in the NCAA tournament later this spring. Ehrlin was one of four selected in the area, all three others players coming from the WAC. Rod Horton took a third-place finish in the No. 2 singles group, which was one of the toughest divisions. Horton lost a thrilling three setter to the eventual champion in that division to finish with a 5-2 record. Strahle also finished at 5-2 despite the heel injury. He then combined with Veasey to win the overall No. 2 doubles crown. Strahle and Veasey completely dominated the No. 2 division. Jeff Robison suffered only one loss in compiling a 6-1 record in the tournament. His only 'oss was a three-set setback as he took second in the tourney. Perhaps the biggest heroes for the 'Cats were Veasey and McGlade who both went 6-1 in claiming their individual crowns at No. 5 and 6 singles. Cox complimented both players on the great wins and pointed out that team depth was the key to victory for Weber. Especially satisfying was the win for McGLade, who stepped in for the injured Tony Miles and played well throughout the entire tourney. "I'm not surprised a bit that Steve won at No. 6, just glad he put it all together at the right time," said Cox. So ends one of the most successful seasons for the Wildcats in men's tennis. The 'Cats finish 22-14 overall, with many of their losses coming to top schools in the west. Along with the women's team, the Wildcats are building a tennis dynasty.

The WSC linksters regained the Big Sky title they lost last year to UNR. (cont'd, from page 11) Jonmarker was not the only Weber golfer to have a good showing, as three other Wildcats finished in the top 11 individually. Sophomore Paul Mueller was four strokes behind the leaders at 24, finishing third. Glen Spencer turned in a 220 to finish fifth and Bobby Romero checked in at 222, tying him for 11th overall. Madsen noted that inconsistency has been the cause of the Wildcats up and down season, but the Big Sky tourney proved to be an exception, as the 'Cats never trailed in all three rounds. The 'Cats began the tournament in the shadows of pre-tourney favorite UNR and hometown favorite Boise State but quickly jumped to a 14-stroke lead after the first day of play. Jonmarker,. Mueller, and Spencer led 1-2-3 going into the final round of play. Weber finished the tournament with a three round score of 860. Nevada-Reno, followed at 868, followed by Boise State at 879, Idaho State at 892, Idaho at 926, and Montana at 926. Individual scores for the Wildcats were: Jonmarker, 72-67-71-210; Mueller, 71-71-72-214; Spencer, 72-70-78-220; Romero, 69-76-77-222; and Miguel Tola, DQ-74-74- 148. Although it looks very doubtful that the Wildcats will be able to recieve an invitation to play in the NCAA tournament as a team, last weekend's showing helped several 'Cats improve their chances at individual invitations. "I think Mats should be almost assured," said Madsen, "and we might see one, possibly two others," he added. Madsen said it depends who wins other conference tournaments as to who will be invited to play in the NCAA's in Greenleaf, Florida, on May 22-26.
