Aggies in Season-Openers:
- Aggie head coach Buzz Williams is 3-0 in season-openers at Texas A&M with wins over Northwestern State, New Orleans and North Florida from 2019-21.
- Texas A&M has opened 21 straight seasons with a victory. The most recent loss in a season lid-lifter was 94-74 road loss to George Washington on Nov. 18, 2000. The most recent loss in a home season-opener was 1999 when the Aggies fell to North Carolina A&T, 94-77.
Last Time Out | Aggies Roll Past Javelinas:
- True freshman forward Solomon Washington (New Orleans, La.) scored a game-high 15 points and added six rebounds as the Aggies took down Texas A&M-Kingsville, 90-47, in exhibition play at Reed Arena last Friday. The Aggies connected on a red-hot 60% from the field (32-of-53), while limiting the Javelinas to just 29% shooting (18-of-63). Texas A&M converted 86% from the free throw line (18-of-21) and were successful on 8-of-18 from behind the arc. J
- Junior forward Henry Coleman led the team with eight rebounds and chipped in nine points. Sophomore guard Manny Obaseki paced the team with five assists. Other Aggies in double figures in points were sophomore guard Wade Taylor IV (11 points) and junior guard Hayden Hefner (10) and junior transfer forward Julius Marble (10).
About Last Year:
- The Aggies closed 2021-22 on a strong note with wins in nine of their final 11 games and reached the championship game of the Southeastern Conference Tournament and the NIT.
- The 2021-22 Aggies finished with a 27-13 record, which marked a 19-victory improvement from 2020-21 (8-10). It was the largest season-to-season win total improvement in program history, bettering the 14-win improvement from 2003-04 to 2004-05 in Billy Gillispie's first season at Texas A&M.
Buzz is Back:
- Head coach Buzz Williams enters his fourth year in Aggieland and his 16th year as a head coach. He reached the 300-win plateau in 2022 and enters 2022-23 with a 302-192 record (49-37 at Texas A&M).
Team Notables:
- One of the most experienced teams in the nation, seven Aggies with at least 10 starts last year return in 2022-23, including three with more than 20 starts. Leading the way are Tyrece Radford, who started all 40 games, and Henry Coleman III, who started 36-of-39 games.
- Texas A&M's defensive pressure led to an NCAA-leading 399 steals last season and returning players accounted for 52.6 percent of those steals. Four players return that nabbed at least 45 steals a year ago.
- The Aggies' strong defense was bolstered by the addition of American Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Year Dexter Dennis, who transferred from Wichita State. The 6-foot-5 guard started 94-of-112 career games over four seasons with the Shockers.
- Texas A&M added five transfers in the offseason: G Dexter Dennis (Wichita State), F Andersson Garcia (Mississippi State), F Julius Marble (Michigan State), G Erik Pratt (Seward County CC) and G Khalen "KK" Robinson (Arkansas).
