COLLEGE STATION, Texas – The No. 8 Texas A&M Aggies commence the 2016 campaign Friday evening when they host the No. 1 Florida State Seminoles in a 7:30 pm match at Ellis Field.
Texas A&M returns 18 letterwinners from the 2015 campaign, including 10 of 11 starters. The returnees account for 45 of the Aggies' 50 goals from last season, as well as all three goalkeepers. Texas A&M welcomes back All-American Mikaela Harvey, along with fellow All-SEC performer Haley Pounds.
The Aggies finished the 2015 season ranked No. 9 in the NSCAA Coaches Poll and posted a 17-7-2 record. The Maroon and White appeared in their 21st consecutive NCAA Division I Championship, advanced to the Second Round for the 18th consecutive year, appeared in the Sweet 16 for the 14th time in program history and earned their sixth Elite Eight showing.
The Seminoles were tabbed the preseason favorite to win the national title by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America, topping the Coaches Poll. Florida State returns 13 players, including six starters, from the 2015 squad that won a third consecutive ACC Championship and reached College Cup for the fifth consecutive season.
