Former Aggie golfer killed in car crash: Former Texas A&M golfer Matthew Loving was killed Friday in a head-on collision with a school bus in Karnes County, the San Antonio Express-News reported Friday.
Loving, 30, played for Texas Tech for two years but played for A&M his senior season in 1999-2000. He turned pro in 2001 and had played in more than 100 events on numerous tours.
None of the 13 students nor the bus driver were killed, but all were taken to a hospital for precautionary reasons, and at least one student suffered a leg fracture.
Loving is survived by his wife and 11-month-old daughter, Kaitlyn Claire.
