No. 17 Texas A&M plays host to Kansas State Monday at 7 p.m. at G. Rollie White Coliseum. The match was originally slated for Sept. 15 but was postponed following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on the United States.
The Aggies are 14-3 overall and in second place in the Big 12 Conference with a 7-2 mark after defeating Missouri in four games on Saturday in College Station. Kansas State is 11-5, 7-3 and is riding a three-match winning streak after defeating Oklahoma on Friday.
A&M owns a slight 6-5 edge in the all-time series against the Wildcats, but the series is tied at 5-5 since Big 12 play began in 1996. Neither team has captured a win on the road as KSU is 0-5 in matches played at G. Rollie.
Last season, KSU defeated A&M in five games at Ahearn Field House, and the Aggies avenged the loss with a three-game sweep when the Wildcats came to College Station.
A&M enters the second half of the conference season on Wednesday as the Aggies face No. 20 Colorado in Boulder. The Buffaloes defeated the Aggies earlier this season in College Station, coming from a two-game deficit to upset A&M, 3-2.
