Texas A&M women's basketball team received preseason top 10 recognition for the second straight season, and third time in the past five years, checking in as high as No. 9 (Athlon Sports) in the preseason magazine rankings.
Courtney Walker, a two-time Associated Press All-American, earned preseason Second Team All-America honors from Athlon Sports as well.
The Aggies are one of seven teams to return multiple AP All-Americans in 2015-16, returning two All-Americans (Walker and Jordan Jones) for the first time in school history. A&M returns four starters, including three all-conference selections for the 2015-16 season.
The Aggies also received acclaim from Lindy's Sports, who ranked the Aggies 16th, and ESPN.com, who gave the Aggies a No. 17 ranking back after the conclusion of the NCAA Tournament in April. The official Associated Press and USA Today Coaches Polls will be released in late October or early November.
The Aggies are looking for their 11th consecutive NCAA Tournament berth in 2015-16, and are one of nine schools to have qualified for each of the last 10 NCAA Tournaments.
Season tickets for the 2015-16 season remain on sale, beginning as low as $100. Annual per seat contributions are required for some seating areas. Contact the 12th Man Foundation for additional information or to order tickets by calling 888-992-4443 or logging onto www.12thMan.com/Tickets.
