Oct 12, 2017 | Soccer
COLLEGE STATION, Texas – The No. 20 Texas A&M Aggies celebrate their Silver Season on Friday when they host the Ole Miss Rebels in a 7:05 p.m. contest at Ellis Field.
Over 80 former Texas A&M soccer players will be on hand for the Silver Season Reunion Night. In 25 years, these women have logged 417 victories, an average of 17 wins a year with a .753 winning percentage. In 25 years, they have never ever experienced a losing season. Only four schools in the nation boast longer strings of consecutive winning campaigns. The 1997 squad won the Big 12 regular-season and tournament championships, the first two titles for the Maroon & White. They continuously added to the tally, now boasting 16 conference titles, including 12 in the Big 12 and four in the SEC. The Aggies made the NCAA Tournament in 1995 and they've made it every season since then. It's the fourth-longest string in the nation. They've logged six Elite Eight appearances and the 2014 squad made the school's first College Cup run.
The first 100 students will receive free popcorn and fans will have chances to win Texas A&M, Whataburger, McDonald's and more. Every time Aggie Soccer shuts out their opponent fans will receive a FREE Pepsi Zero as they exit the stadium.
The Aggies enter action tied with Florida for second place in the SEC standings with 15 points (5-1-0). They trail first-place South Carolina (18 pts - 6-0-0).
Texas A&M boasts three consecutive league player of the week honorees with Cienna Arrieta and Ally Watt earning SEC Offensive Player of the Week in back-to-back weeks followed by Cosette Morché earning SEC Defensive Player of the Week on Monday.
Watt is the Aggies' leading scorer with 14 points on six goals and two assists. Haley Pounds added 11 points on five goals and one assist and Arrieta has 10 points on three goals and four assists.
Morché has logged all 1,214 minutes in goal for Texas A&M with a 0.74 goals-against average and five shutouts.
The Rebels enter play with a 10-3-1 overall mark and a 3-3-0 record in league play. They sport SEC wins against Georgia (4-1), Arkansas (1-0) and LSU (4-1). League losses have come at the hands of Florida (1-0), South Carolina (2-0) and Tennessee (6-4). The Rebels played two top 25 teams in non-conference action, playing then-No. 23 Michigan to a 1-1 draw and toppling then-No. 18 Memphis, 1-0.
The match will be available digitally on mobile devices, computers and connect-TVs for SEC Network subscribers whose cable/satellite packages allow access to SEC Network+ through the WatchESPN app and SECSports.com. David Ellis (play-by-play) and Kristi Leonard (color analyst) will handle the call. Fans can listen to the match worldwide on 12thMan.com/Listen.
