FORT WORTH, Texas – The Texas A&M Aggies play their first road match of the season Sunday against the TCU Horned Frogs. Match time at Garvey-Rosenthal Soccer Stadium is set for 7 p.m.
Â
The Aggies are fresh off Thursday's 2-0 win against Tulsa. Kenna Caldwell posted a shutout in goal and earned No. 6 on the ESPN Sportscenter Top 10 with her goal on a 45-yard free kick.
Texas A&M is 13-2-0 against the Horned Frogs, but TCU has won the last two meetings, both 2-1 decisions. Prior to TCU's two wins, the Aggies had a strong of eight consecutive shutouts in the series. As a matter of fact, the Maroon & White outscored TCU 41-4 in the first 13 games of the series. Two of the Aggies wins came in NCAA Tournament action, including the first round in 2016 and second round in 2018.
Â
With the Aggies' victory against Tulsa, A&M head coach G Guerrieri moved into ninth place on the NCAA's all-time all-division list for women's soccer head coaching wins with 501. He tied retired Brian McManus who coached 31 years at then-Division II UC San Diego. Guerrieri's next targets are Gabe Mejail (9th – 508) who is active as the head coach at Merrimack and the retired Beckly Burleigh (7th – 513) who coached five years at Berry and 26 years at Florida.
The Aggies sport the best soccer program in Texas by every tangible measure. Texas A&M boasts 484 all-time wins, 32 ahead of SMU, the only other squad with over 400 wins. The Maroon & White's .737 winning percentage is joined by only North Texas (.708) in exceeding the .700 mark. The Aggies' 27 NCAA Tournament appearances nearly matches the combined total of the No. 2 and No. 3 teams on the list – Texas (16) and SMU (14).
Â
TCU is 1-2-1 on the season, but both losses game against top 10 opponents – home against No. 6 Florida State (2-0) and at No. 8 Penn State (1-0). The Horned Frogs' lone goal of the season came in a 1-0 season-opening win against SMU. In their most recent outing they tied UAB, 0-0.
