The men’s polo team, ranked No. 3 in the country, will take on the No. 1 seeded Aggies of Texas A&M in the title game of the national intercollegiate polo championship, held at Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, Ky.
Rather than duke it out in a battle for agricultural superiority, a facet of education both universities are known for, the two squads will duel in the polo arena at 7 p.m. tomorrow night.
The Red defeated No. 2 Virginia on Tuesday, 16-15, to advance to the title game, while the Aggies knocked off No. 4 Westmont College (Calif.) yesterday, 22-8. The Red has had two extra days to rest for the title game than the Aggies have had, but the maroon and white may have an edge on the carnelian and white in the momentum department.
