NEWS

By Megan Rodriguez At the end of his weekly sermon in Reed arena Tuesday night, Executive Director of Breakaway Ministries Ben Stuart announced to thousands of students that he will step down from his position at the end of the spring semester. Breakaway Ministries is a non-denominational Christian ministry that started at Texas A&M’s campus 26 years ago. Stuart has served as director for 11 years and will continue to be a part of Breakaway as a member of the Board of Directors. Ben and his wife, Donna Stuart, will move their family to Atlanta to join a Christian organization called “Passion” and eventually launch a “Passion City Church.” Breakaway has not yet named a replacement for Stuart. Stuart became involved with Breakaway when he was a sophomore marketing and managing double major atTexas A&M. He was approached by then-Director and Founder of Breakaway Gregg Matte while eating lunch one day and accepted Matte’s invitation to attend Breakaway, an organization he had not before heard of. Stuart said he was moved when he saw hundreds of college students worshipping God together and eventually became close to Matte. “I attended Breakaway as a student and was blown away by — at that time — the hundreds of students gathered to worship in a little church in Bryan,” Stuart said. “And through what at the time seemed random, now seems providential — series of meetings, Gregg and I became friends.” After graduating, Stuart moved to Dallas, where he began seminary school and was the leader of a youth ministry. Two years into seminary, Matte contacted Stuart and asked if he would take over Breakaway. Stuart initially declined the invitation but felt God calling him to come back to College Station when he saw the impact Breakaway was making on the Texas A&M campus. Stuart said the decision to leave Breakaway has been a difficult process

Thousands gather to hear Ben Stuart’s sermons every Tuesday. Stuart has served as the director of Breakaway for 11 years. but he believes that he is following the plan God has for his life. “It’s been a process for me, feeling an ever-growing desire to be the pastor of a church,” Stuart said. “And on the other side of that, seeing the challenges and opportunities in front of Breakaway — and this is where it is a bit intangible — just sensing in my time praying with the Lord that those weren’t my challenges to tackle.” Stuart said his favorite part of working with Breakaway was being able to speak one-on-one with students and having the opportunity to watch their faith grow. “The most precious moments for me are the conversations I get to have with students after I speak,” Stuart said. “Just sitting one on one at Breakaway and seeing students trust the Lord with their life … Those moments of watching their faith rise are my favorite memories.” Strategic Partnerships Coordinator and Executive Assistant to Ben Stuart Elizabeth Staggers said it’s sad to see Stuart leave but Breakaway is more than just a man. “As friends of the Stuart family we are sad to see them go, but also we are really excited to see what God is doing in their lives,” Staggers said. “As far as Breakaway goes, we trust that Breakaway has never just been about one man, so we feel really confident that God is in this decision and is going to provide a new director for Breakaway. Ultimately we feel that Breakaway’s best days are ahead.”

Industrial engineering senior Christine Chen has attended Breakaway since she was a freshman. Chen said Stuart has been a big part of Breakaway and has been an honest teacher. “I think what people enjoyed about [Ben] most is that he is very honest. He doesn’t tell us what we want to hear; he tells us what we need to hear,” Chen said. Geography senior Noel Handy began attending Breakaway when he was a sophomore and said he doesn’t believe the change in leadership will change Breakaway. Handy said he thinks the organization will continue to have an impact on A&M students for generations to come. “I don’t think this change is going to negatively affect Breakaway at all,” Handy said. “I think it’s actually going to be for Breakaway’s benefit. I have seen the Holy Spirit work through Ben Stuart and I can tell that God has huge plans for him. Whoever takes over is going to impact the generations of college students to come.” Stuart said that working at Breakaway has been greater than he could have ever imagined. “It has been such an amazing decade here in town far exceeding any expectations I could have had,” Stuart said. “I wrote this sentence in my journal: ‘The Lord has allowed me to spend my 30s preaching the message of Jesus to the generation in their 20s.’ And I thought, whatever else happens in my life I am deeply grateful for that sentence.”

133rd Muster to draw thousands to Reed Arena By Madeline Schulz

n a day of celebration, camaraderie and remembrance, the 2016 Campus Muster Ceremony will take place Thursday in Reed Arena at 7 p.m. Aggie Muster is a yearly tradition that calls Aggies around the world to gather together, share memories from their time on campus and to remember comrades who died in the past year. About 15,000 Aggies and visitors are expected to gather in Reed Arena Thursday evening in a candlelit ceremony to remember current and former students who have died since April 21, 2015. A flag-raising ceremony at 7 a.m. will kick off campus Muster’s activities. The Aggie Class of 1966 is invited back to Texas A&M as the 50year Muster reunion class, and current students are invited to share “good bull” stories about campus events with reunion class members at the Camaraderie Barbeque at Kyle Field’s Northeast Plaza from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The Campus Muster ceremony begins at 7 p.m. in Reed Arena.

during the 1999 Aggie Bonfire collapse, will deliver a keynote address before the Roll Call for the Absent. During Roll Call, the names of Aggies with ties to campus who have died since the 2015 Muster — including current students and deceased members of the 50 year reunion class — are read. 165 names are listed on the Roll Call at time of press. Any Aggie or visitor who knew the person called, who shares their class year or who feels inclined may answer “here” when the name is read aloud to symbolize the Aggie’s presence remains as part of the Aggie family. Musters held worldwide conduct similar ceremonies to honor deceased Aggies in their communities. The Muster Reflections Display will be open to visitors in the MSC Flag Room to serve as a living memorial to those Aggies listed on the Roll Call. About 80 Aggies have displays set up by their families and loved ones that feature photographs and personal items to convey to viewers an idea of who they were as individuals. Josiah Bezet, Muster Committee chair, said the Roll Call allows Aggies to honor, celebrate and reflect on the lives of the absent.

“I’ve known some people personally on the Roll Call every year,” Bezet said. “They’re unable to answer ‘here’ for themselves and whether it was a diehard Aggie or someone who barely bought into the traditions at A&M, Muster is the equalizer of all that. They give the exact same respect and honor to every Aggie, regardless of background or heritage or what they did while they were on campus. It gives respect to every single person in the exact same light.” Marikit Tomlinson, Muster awareness subchair, said April 21 acts as a unifier for Aggies and a time to stand together in support as a family. “A man from the [reunion] class excitedly grabbed me and took me over to a display,” Tomlinson said, describing a memory about Muster. “The reunion member asked me to read the date on the cover of an A&M versus Bama Cotton Bowl game. It was 1967. In response, he said, ‘I knew it. I remember that game. Me and another Aggie listened to the whole thing over the radio in a foxhole in Vietnam.’ It is just crazy how Muster can bring back a surge of memories that can be shared across our Aggie family regardless of generation.”

2016 CAMPUS MUSTER SPEAKER

RICHARD COPELAND SLOCUM

‘It’s about trying to make A&M a better place’ Former players, students reflect on Slocum’s legacy By Chris Martin He is deeply remembered for his legacy as Texas A&M’s most decorated head football coach, and this Thursday he will be featured as Muster’s keynote speaker. Richard Copeland “R.C.” Slocum will address the largest Muster ceremony in the world as keynote speaker for the 2016 campus ceremony. Slocum’s first campus Muster ceremony was 44 years ago during his first year at Texas A&M. “I think it is one of the highest honors that an Aggie can have, because Muster is a foundation of what being an Aggie is all about,” Slocum said, reflecting on Muster committee’s decision to invite him as speaker. “Aggies stick together. Aggies care for each other, and Aggies are remembered by their classmates. So to me it’s the ultimate Aggie tradition.” Slocum’s life story highlights the way sports at Texas A&M, particularly Aggie football, often weaves in and out of the traditions that define the university. Slocum first came to A&M as an assistant coach in 1972 and assumed head coach of the Ag-

gie football team from 1989 to 2002. He was head coach during the 1999 Aggie Bonfire collapse — a campus tragedy that saw the deaths of 12 students and left 27 injured days before A&M played it’s archival, the University of Texas. Many of Slocum’s players volunteered at the Stack collapse site to move logs and aid search-and-rescue teams. The team would go on to snatch a victory from the Longhorns in an upset win that helped sooth a campus still in shock from Bonfire’s tragedy. Slocum has more wins than any other A&M head coach and was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2012. He still lives in College Station and serves as an ambassador for the university and an advisor to the president of Texas A&M. Bucky Richardson played for Coach Slocum as Aggie quarterback from 1987-1991 and continued to play in the NFL for the Houston Oilers. Richardson said Slocum was more than a football coach to all of his players — he was a leader who wanted the best for all players and was always there for them. “He’s a mentor. He’s a gentleman. He always has great advice, and he’s always there to help when you need him,” Richardson said.

“He is not about a shortcut, and he will do things the right way. As a young guy and young player, that leadership and that example helps me today.”

“... Aggies care for each other, and Aggies are remembered by their classmates. So to me it’s the ultimate Aggie tradition.” R.C. Slocum, 2016 campus Muster speaker

Jacob Green played at Texas A&M while Slocum was a defensive coach as an All-American defensive end from 1977-1979. He later played 12 years in the National Football League with the Seattle Seahawks. Green said Slocum leads by example and is a role model for everyone.

“There are people that say things, and there are others who say them and do them,” Green said. “His legacy on the field is just like his legacy in life. He is a good person and everybody knows him and sees him and he’s lived a life that I would like to live one day. He has so many people and friends. It’s just awesome to be around a person like him.” Slocum coached at A&M for a total of 30 years and developed a bond with the Aggie community. Richardson said all of his coaches impacted him in different ways, but Slocum had the most influence in his life. “He really took time to get to know me and really helped me along not only with football but off the field growing up — he’s like a second father to me,” Richardson said. “He cares about his players and former players, and nobody loves Texas A&M more than R.C. Slocum.” Madeline Kinnaird, speaker subchair for Aggie Muster Committee and electrical engineering senior, said choosing the Muster speaker is a long, in-depth nomination process. “Basically there is a nomination that is open to adults and people who send in names,” Kinnaird said. “They have speeches and that they send in with different descriptions

SETTING THE TONE

about that person and character traits. From there, is it something the committee looks at and does a lot of research on. [Slocum’s] dedication to A&M and his genuine love for Muster is what really spoke to us and is ultimately why he is going to be a great speaker for Muster this year.” Throughout Slocum’s career, he had multiple offers to coach at other schools and the National Football League, but could not seeing himself leaving the rich culture at A&M. “I had several offers to coach at other universities,” Slocum said. “In the early 90s, I was coaching here, and I had the chance to go to Arizona Cardinals as the head coach. I was happy and there was no other place I wanted to be.” R.C. Slocum will always be remembered at A&M for leading A&M’s football team to the best it has ever been, however, Slocum said he wants to be remembered for trying to make A&M a better place. “I like to think that I tried to make things better, and it wasn’t all about me or my legacy, but it’s about trying to make A&M a better place,” Slocum said. “I feel fortunate to have been here for all these years and it’s where I wanted to be after being here just a little bit — I didn’t want to go anywhere else.”

Student pianists volunteer to play throughout the day in the MSC Flag Room for the duration of the Reflection’s Display.

PIANISTS VOLUNTEER TO PROVIDE SOUNDTRACK TO REFLECTION DISPLAY

Alexis Will — THE BATTALION

By Jack Riewe Their musical backgrounds vary from self-taught to classically trained, but the Reflections Display pianists share two things in common — they love the tradition of Muster, and they volunteer their time to create an atmosphere of reflection for one of the tradition’s most cherished facets. The Muster Reflections Display is a living memorial dedicated to the current and former students listed on the Roll Call for the Absent. As visitors in the MSC Flag Room quietly view the objects and photographs meant to give an intimate glimpse of who an Aggie was, music often flows softly from the grand piano in the corner. Classical, contemporary and movie soundtracks — the music varies and sets an emotional undertone to a place of both celebration and mourning. Biology sophomore Ray Cortez said he plays in the Flag Room often, so he volunteered for the Reflections Display last year before really knowing what it was. “So I started playing and a girl — might’ve been a family member — sat behind me and was reading a letter and when I finished the

BAT_04-21-16_A4*.indd 1

song, I could hear crying while she was reading it,” Cortez said. “I obviously won’t ever know what she was feeling or thinking, but it was definitely a nice feeling for me knowing I could connect with her emotions like that.” Cortez started playing piano his sophomore year of high school and said he hasn’t spent a day without touching one since. When Cortez volunteered to play at the Reflections Display again, he said he knew he wanted to replicate the emotions of last year. “I love knowing that I can provide a beautiful sound in the background while there are people taking in the beauty of this event and the lives being honored,” Cortez said. “It just really adds to the effect of the emotion this week brings to the Aggie family.” Stephen Findeisen, chemical engineering sophomore, taught himself piano nine years ago. This will be his first year playing for the display. Findeisen said he wants to help visitors understand the atmosphere of the Reflections Display and how it fits into the tradition of Aggie Muster. “Music really bridges the gap from mind to heart,” Findeisen said. “Somber emotion is a lot about song choice and dynamic softness.

You can’t be banging away at the keys. You have to hold a lot back and let the silence between the notes speak.” Business honors junior Ben Johnson has played piano since the first grade. Johnson said he doesn’t necessarily view the Reflections Display as a somber place. “I don’t see the Reflections Display as a place to be sad,” Johnson said. “I see it as a place to celebrate and honor the lives of those displayed. So I don’t necessarily try to play somber music, but music that helps people reflect and remember those we’ve lost. I love playing at the Reflections Display because it’s a small way I can serve one of my favorite traditions, and by extension, the Aggie family.” Zane Litzmann, geological information and science technology sophomore, has played for students and visitors at the Reflections Display for two years now and hopes to play next year as well. He plays movie soundtracks, and creates custom arrangements of current songs. “It just adds to the whole atmosphere of everything,” Litzmann said. “You know you’re also reading, but it’s just something in the background that kind of drives everything forward.”

Marketing sophomore Lauren Evans, one of the coordinators for the Reflections Display, said she has a special connection with the music playing during the display. Evans said it helped her emotionally connect with her father, who was honored at the 2015 Muster. “When I would hear the piano players play a certain song we would always think of, it was just a closer connection to him, more than looking at pictures of him,” Evans said. “It was a way of almost feeling him again, so that’s what makes these piano players so special and that’s why we like them. We want to create those connections and also set the appropriate mood.” Evans said she is glad the piano players have responded and volunteered their time to play. “There’s something very special about music,” Evans said. “It’s something that unifies people and at the same time creates a unique experience for everyone. So having piano players here gives the opportunity for students that are maybe walking through, or families that are coming to see their loved one’s display, to connect with this music — but also have it ingrained with a memory of such a special person.”

CLASS OF 1966

Ten former members of the Corps of Cadets Company B-1 gather at the home of Henry Goodwin, Class of 1966, before their 50th class reunion.

In 1966, over 9,000 Aggies received their degrees. After 50 years these Aggies return to College Station to celebrate their reunion and Muster.

The last time Henry Goodwin, Class of 1966, saw many of his A&M classmates was during their last Corp of Cadets final review before marching off to war. “It was like our group knew and sensed what our destiny would be in terms of the role we would play in Vietnam and Korea and a number of trouble spots in the world, but many of us would never see each other again or come to campus again,” Goodwin said. “Normally you would just march across the field in one line, and our entire Class of ’66 put our arms around each other from one side of the drill field to the other and marched across the field together. I don’t think that had ever been done before or since.” Each Muster, a class of Aggies celebrates its 50th class reunion with a barbeque, class photos, tours and banquets. At this year’s Muster, Goodwin’s class will reunite with old friends and remember those who are unable to attend as well as those who did not return from war. “The Class of 1966 at Texas A&M and the Class of 1966 at West Point shared the tragic distinction of having the highest number of casualties in Vietnam,” said Henry Goodwin, Class of 1966. “The icon of our losses was Joe Bush, who was our head yell leader.” Nardie Vine, class agent and member of the Class of 1966, said Joe was one of the finest Aggies he had ever met. “Joe never met a stranger — he was the kind who’d give you the shirt off his back if you needed it,” Vine said. “If you cut him he’d bleed maroon blood. He was active in activities at the YMCA, that’s where I had the most contact with him and in some of the activities at the MSC. He was involved in SCONA.” Vine said over 90 percent of the Class of 1966 are veterans, and in addition to Joe, there were 13 other Aggies who did not return from the Vietnam War. At that time, the Class of 1966 was the last class to be required to be in the Corps of Cadets. “The Corps of Cadets and military training was compulsory for two years, and then you had an option of becoming a civilian student or staying in the Corps of Cadets, and if you decided to stay, you also had an option to pursue a commission in one of the services,”

Brian Okosun - THE BATTALION

Goodwin said. “Or you could remain in the corps and not pursue a commission and be a ‘D&C,’ which stands for ‘Drill and Ceremony.’” As the class president and a D&C, Narciso Cano said he was grateful to have the opportunity and honor of experiencing Texas A&M’s traditions and culture. “When I was a freshman at my first midnight yell practice, there was a cold front coming in and light snowflakes were filtering in the floodlights of Kyle Field,” Cano said. “It has been decades since I have done a yell practice, but I remember saying, ‘My God, is this Hispanic kid from the west side of San Antonio really here?’ That was the feeling from that yell practice 54 years ago.” It was the rigorous preparation from being in the Class of 1966 Corps of Cadets that prepared him not only for battle, but for the real world, Goodwin said. “I think that most of us that went through that process would tell you that those four years are a defining factor in the way we lived our lives and taught us what leadership was,” Goodwin said. “We learned how to follow and ultimately how to lead. When I was in Korea, I was a company commander when I was still a second lieutenant — which is unusual — and it wasn’t because I was any special guy, I had just been better prepared.” For Vine, the 50-year reunion will be a wonderful opportunity to relive old memories with fellow troops and to honor those who could not be there, as well as what the Class of 1966 stood for. “There are lots of strong emotions remembering the good times we had here at ‘Sing-Sing on the Brazos,’ and just being proud to be part of this class and the patriots who were and are the members of the Class of ’66,” Vine said. Goodwin said the 50-year reunion allows him to connect with people he has not seen since they were in school. “I will be reunited with one of my classmates named Jim Clark, and I haven’t seen or heard Jim’s voice in 50 years, and when we connected prior to the reunion about Jim coming down because of the reunion, there was no time span,” Goodwin said. “The 50 years collapsed because of the years we shared here and the rapport you build during tough times.

‘Live it, preserve it, be there’

What does it mean to you to say ‘here’ at Muster?

Malenie Areche

T

he first time I sat in Reed Arena was for Fish Camp 2014 Session D’s sendoff. As a first-generation Aggie, I had no clue that in that same building I would experience one of the biggest transformations of my life. By the time you read this, Aggies in faraway places like Sydney and Taiwan will have already taken part in our greatest duty and honor as members of the Aggie family — Muster. Today, the Aggie family will come together in all parts of the world to participate in the 133rd rendition of this tradition. These traits are what make Aggie Muster unique and uniting. To be honored at a Muster either on campus or around the world, there are no restrictions except having attended Texas A&M. When a person’s name is read off the Roll Call and we say “here” for them, it does not matter how that person lived their life. It doesn’t matter what race, gender, financial status, sexuality or religious beliefs that person held. The only thing that matters is that we are there in their place to honor them simply because they are a member of our Aggie family. Aggie Muster is one of the few tangible ways the student body has left in the year to truly be there for one another. For Aggies, Muster is the last main event of each year — and is the perfect time to reflect and to remember the past. Although Muster’s principal purpose is to honor the fallen, I feel this service has an even deeper impact for all those present. The unification of the 50year reunion class and current student body allows for this tradition to impact the living by allowing us to bond. Without Muster, we would not be able to have the privilege of interacting and celebrating with so many

amazing trailblazers who allowed Texas A&M to become the respected institution it is today. Listening to the Class of 1965 — The 2015 Muster reunion class — say “here” in unison 31 times for their fallen peers 50 years after they graduated reignited a sense of hope within me for the future. No matter how much time passes or how much Texas A&M may change, the Aggie family truly stays with you forever. After attending Fish Camp and learning about Muster, I left promising myself that I would be in attendance on April 21, 2015. I was able to experience Muster by serving an honored family as a Muster host. I guided them through Reed Arena, showed them their seats and left. Despite anything I said to them, I felt like my words were not enough to make up for all of their pain. I decided to pray for them — I prayed that God allow this family to heal. I prayed they would find the strength necessary to overcome this difficult time. And I prayed Muster would be a meaning-

ful experience for them because I could see how much the entire family needed this. After Muster I could see in their faces just how much the ceremony had impacted them. Besides mentioning how beautiful all of the proceedings were, the main thing that impacted them was the fact that there were so many people there for their loved one. One day, you and I will be honored at a Muster somewhere. Someone somewhere will say “here” in our place and will be there for our grieving families. Until that day comes, I hope you join me in being in attendance every April 21 at the Muster nearest to you because it is the least we can do as Aggies. If you are at all interested in preserving this tradition for generations to come, then I encourage you to come to be at Reed Arena this Thursday night. “To live it. To preserve it. To be there.” Malenie Areche is supply chain management sophomore and serves on the 2016 Muster Committee as the database coordinator.

“My uncle graduated in 1974, and he was killed in a drunk driving accident. Muster is a way to honor him.” Gracyn McCarty, agricultural communication and journalism junior

ACTIVISM

In wake of flooding, student Tubman on the $20 is priceless aims to aid Houston victims Sam King Senior collects donations at Zeta Tau Alpha sorority house By Katy Stapp One A&M student has begun a spur-of-the-moment relief effort to aid the thousands of Houston residents who have been affected by the flooding this week. Caroline Corrigan, a communication senior from Houston, posted on Facebook Tuesday that she would collect donations for Houston residents who have been put out of their homes as a result of the flooding. Corrigan is collecting bottled water and gatorade, snacks, toiletries, diapers, baby food and household-cleaning supplies at the Zeta Tau Alpha house. “I was born and raised in Houston, and the idea of flooding happening in Houston is not something anyone thinks about,” Corrigan said. “Many people don’t have flood insurance, because most people don’t think that’s something that would happen to them. But as I’m sitting in College Station I keep seeing on Facebook my entire city under water.” Corrigan said while her family hasn’t personally been affected by the flooding, seeing others experiencing hardships inspired her to start the drive. “I don’t know how, but all my family has had no damage,” Corrigan said. “But I mean looking through my Facebook — I saw one of my friends in Houston in

The Houston Chronicle, because her entire house was completely flooded — just seeing someone you know in so much trouble, there’s no way I could just watch it.” The donation drive began Tuesday, and Corrigan said she’s already had a few donations, but expects to see a lot more in the coming days. “I just started it yesterday, so it’s brand new, but I’ve gotten a few people to give me stuff from my organization so I’m hoping to get more,” Corrigan said. “I’ll be collecting all week at the Zeta house.” Corrigan said she plans to bring the items to a group in Houston who has teamed up with a storage facility in order to collect and distribute donations. “Online I saw that the Spring Klein Chamber of Commerce had teamed up with Big Tex Storage for a donation drop off, so eventually when I get all the donations I plan on dropping them off to them and they’ll be distributing them throughout the Houston area,” Corrigan said. Corrigan said if flooding continues and people are still in need, she plans to extend her donation drive through next week. “Right now, I believe seven people have passed away and over 1,200 have been evacuated,” Corrigan said. “And rain is supposed to continue to come, so they’re just going to need so much more.”

arriet Tubman will soon become the new face of the $20 bill, marking a significant victory for many. The news was announced Wednesday morning and a lot of people are really happy about it — rightfully so. Tubman was born into slavery. She later escaped, worked as a Union spy during the Civil War and is remembered as an incredible pillar of American history. She was a revolutionist during a time when being a woman and being black made it very difficult to make history — but that’s exactly what she did. Tubman is not the first woman on American currency, nor is she the first minority. Sacagawea marks the $1 coin currently where Susan B. Anthony held the position before. But let’s be honest — the $1 coin is little more than a collector’s item at this point. When’s

Harriet Tubman will be the new face on the $20.

the last time you paid for anything with a $1 coin? The $20 bill is a note that has a very large circulation — most ATMs only administer $20 bills. When Tubman takes over her face and story will reach a large, strong circulation. When it has to do with your face on a bill, it’s not the dollar amount that really counts, it’s the circulation. That’s why they put Salmon P. Cash on the $10,000 bill. Yeah, exactly — who? And Tubman won’t be the only woman joining the Federal Reserve’s Good Ol’ Boys Club of currency bills. According to U.S. Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew, women and civil rights leaders will be added to the $5 and $10

bills, too, though in what capacity it’s not clear yet. This decision doesn’t come as complete shock. Talk began last year to get a woman on American paper currency. Tubman’s name was tossed around then, too, without any confirmations. So here’s to you, Ms. Tubman. May your time on the $20 be meaningful and pave the way for more forward thinking from our government and our country. The bill itself may only be worth $20, but Tubman’s presence on it will hold much more value. Sam King is a communication junior and news editor for The Battalion.

Aggie golfers tee it up for Valero Texas Open tourney Palmer, Burgoon, Piller will compete in San Antonio for $1.16 million prize By Lawrence Smelser Three former Texas A&M golfers will participate in this weekend’s Valero Texas Open. The tournament will be held in San Antonio at the TPC San Antonio golf course, three hours away from where the Aggies mastered the craft in College Station. The former students participating are Bronson Burgoon and Martin Piller, who are playing their first full season on the PGA Tour, and longtime-tour veteran Ryan Palmer. Burgoon and Piller will aim to capture their first PGA Tour win, and Palmer will attempt to win his first since 2010. Burgoon and Piller were teammates for three seasons at A&M from 2005-2008. Burgoon is a well-known Aggie golfer and is most remembered for his shot that sealed the 2009 National Championship for Texas A&M. Burgoon has been impressive in his first season on tour. The Woodlands native is 109th in the FedEx Cup rankings ahead of stars such as Ian Poulter, Hunter Mahan and Keegan Bradley. The 28-year-old has made nine cuts this season out of 14 events played, including four top-25 finishes. Piller, who played at A&M from 20052009, has played in nine tournaments this season and has made the cut in five of them and has tallied one top-25 finish. Last season on the Web.com Tour, Piller managed to win two tournaments and finished in the top-10 five times. Palmer will return to the Valero Texas Open seeking a victory after he finished in a tie for sixth with Dustin Johnson in last

Ryan Palmer tied for sixth in last year’s Valero Texas Open. year’s tournament. This season the world’s 79th-ranked player has accumulated four Top 25 finishes in 11 events. The total purse for the tournament is $6.2 million with the winner receiving $1,116,000. Last year’s winner, 37-year-old Jimmy Walker, will be in the field to try and defend his title. The Valero Texas Open will begin Thursday and run through Sunday. Palmer will be the first Aggie to tee-off at 8 a.m. followed by Burgoon at 9 a.m. and Piller at 9:10 a.m. Thursday and Friday’s action will be broadcast by the Golf Channel, and Saturday and Sunday’s will be broadcast by the Golf Channel from 1-2:30 p.m. and CBS from 2:30-5 p.m.
