What a great culture in our women's basketball program! I'm proud of everyone involved - from players to coaches to the training staff to the administrative staff - for creating and maintaining it! You see the ladies present themselves so well and get more confident as they have been here longer. It isn't fake. Any parent should be overwhelming excited if they have an opportunity for their daughter to come to Texas A&M and be a part of this program.

Watched the TAMU graduation this morning and got to see Johnson, Ellison and Williams walk across stage and get their degrees.......Love KAMU

Texas A&M Student-Athletes Earn Degrees at December 2019 Commencement

COLLEGE STATION, Texas -- Years of hard work and dedication in the classroom for 48 Texas A&M student-athletes from 11 different varsity sports will be honored when they receive their diplomas during December 2019 Commencement ceremonies Friday and Saturday.

"I couldn't be more proud of the amount of work that our student-athletes put in the classroom and on the field," Director of Athletics Ross Bjork said. "With the rigors of a demanding athletic schedule and academic work, receiving a degree from Texas A&M is a life-changing moment. We are thankful to our phenomenal academic services staff for their leadership in putting our student-athletes in the best position to excel in the classroom."

Notably absent from the on-campus Commencement will be recent AVCA All-South Region honoree Makena Patterson of volleyball, who will be competing with her team in the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Volleyball Championships. Coach Bird Kuhn's Aggies take on Wisconsin at 1 p.m. on Friday in Madison, Wis.

Among the 48 Aggies receiving their diplomas will be nine that have earned their graduate degrees: Jonathan Ducoff (baseball), Aja Ellison (women's basketball), Mikaela Harvey (soccer), Noah Jacobs (men's track & field), Sycerika McMahon (women's swimming), Eva Paalma (women's tennis), Alexander Riba (men's track & field), Erica Russell (softball) and Ryan Teel (men's track & field).

So awesome. My wife especially tracks Aggie Soccer so will be delighted to hear about Mikaela Harvey as well.

Congratulations to ALL our graduates with special notes for our women basketball graduates!

Just one year ago I was sitting in Reed waiting for my daughter's name to be called. Can't believe it's been a year already!

This one right here!!! I wanted to coach her so badly not because of what she does but because of who she is glad I got a chance! Congrats Ciera Johnson on your first degree

One thing about each photo that I love: all three are beaming with pride.
