The Aggies (7-1), who are riding a five-match win streak and entered the Top 25 poll for the first time this week after defeating both No. 6 USC and No. 13 San Diego last week, take on the Seminoles (9-0) at 6 p.m. on Friday and 11 a.m. on Saturday in a rare doubleheader.
Friday's match has been designated “Social Media Night”, in which fans have an opportunity to receive a free T-shirt while supplies last. It also is “Fish Camp Night”, an opportunity for campers to reunite and also cheer on their fellow volleyball fish campers, Stephanie Aiple, Kiara McGee, Amy Nettles, Ashlie Reasor and Olivia Thorpe. In addition, Aggie head coach Laurie Corbelli will host “Chalk Talk” 40 minutes before the match in the volleyball practice gym.
Saturday activities begin with a free volleyball clinic and facility tour for Girl Scouts prior to the match. During the match, all fans can play BINGO and win free prizes, and the day will be capped off with a post-match autograph session with the A&M players on the main court.
Tickets to the matches can be purchased in advance at 12thMan.com or at the Reed Arena box office beginning one hour before match time. Individual match tickets are $9 for reserve seating, $7 for adult general admission and $4 for youth, high school age and under. A&M students without a 12th Man all-sports pass also can purchase tickets for $4 each.
