The back-to-back defending Big 12 champion Texas A&M soccer team began its 2006 spring workout schedule this week at the Aggie Soccer Stadium.
?The non-traditional spring season is one of the most important times of the year for us,? commented A&M head coach and Central Region Coach of the Year, G Guerrieri. ?It allows for us to concentrate on player development and helps to mentally and physically prepare us to win championships during our fall season.?
A&M finished the 2005 season winning both the Big 12 regular season and tournament trophies before falling prey to the Penn State Nittany Lions in the NCAA Sweet 16. The Aggies amassed an overall record of 18-4-2 and placed four girls on the All-Big 12 first team (Kati Jo Spisak, Laura Probst, Ashlee Pistorius and Melissa Garey). Also receiving conference honors was freshman Laura Grace Robinson who was named to the All-Big 12 Newcomer team.
During the spring season, the Aggies will compete in 11 games at the Aggie Soccer Stadium. Log on to www.AggieSoccer.com for the most current schedule information.
