Around Aggieland (2/25)
Baseball
No. 23 Texas A&M baseball swept Penn last weekend in a three-game series. The pitching staff did not walk a single batter in the series, so prepare to be blown away, as Weston Moss said in his Texas Aggies United interview, by what they accomplish this season.
Last night, the Ags run-ruled Lamar in seven innings, 25-5, after 18 hits in 34 at-bats. Caden Sorell logged the first Aggie grand slam of the season while Boston Kellner, Travis Chesnut and Blake Binderup also added homers.
The team will take on Virginia Tech this Friday in Arlington to kick off their run in the Amegy Bank College Baseball Series.
Men’s Basketball
Aggie men’s basketball had a road kill at OU on Saturday, 75-71
Rashaun Agee led the Ags with 18 points and seven rebounds. Rylan Griffen followed with 14 points, five rebounds and three steals, and Zach Clemence had 9 points, five rebounds, and two blocks.
They remain on the road for tonight’s big game against No. 20 Arkansas.
Women’s Basketball
Upset No. 21 Tennessee in Knoxville on Thursday, which was their first-ranked road win since January 10, 2021. Lemyah Hylton had her highest scoring output in an SEC game with 12 points.
On Sunday, they crushed Arkansas by 21 points at home. Ny’Ceara Pryor became the first player to record three-straight double-doubles in points and assists in SEC play since 2009.
The Aggies will stay at Reed and host Mississippi State tomorrow at 7 p.m. CT.
Softball
Texas A&M softball won three of six games in the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic. They split day one, defeating Duke after falling to Oregon, then took down UC San Diego, 5-2.
