A&M’s Softball Season

Through the Aggies' 26 non-conference games, they are 17-9, with appearances against several programs bound for the NCAA Regionals down the line. The year started off with Opening Day falling against ACU before a two-game stretch with Utah State and Providence to jump off to a  3-0 start.

After the three-game winning streak, A&M ran into Texas Tech and the ‘Million Dollar Arm’, who gave Ford and Co. a tough fight, handing the first loss of the season 3-2 at home. A&M bounced back against Providence before participating in the Shriners’ Children’s Clearwater Invitational.
