BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION – The Texas A&M soccer team hosts the TCU Horned Frogs for an exhibition match Sunday at Ellis Field. First kick is slated for 2 p.m.
Admission is free for the afternoon's festivities.
Through three spring playing dates, the Aggies own a 5-0-mark, outscoring opponents 18-2 in 315 minutes of action. Texas A&M opened with wins against DBU (2-1) and Houston (3-0) prior to spring break. On the other side of the vacation the Maroon & White claimed victories against Baylor (2-0) and UIW (4-1) in Waco. Tuesday evening, the Aggies walloped Texas Southern, 7-0.
In the most recent match, Sydney Becerra and Kennedy Clark each logged a pair of goals in Tuesday's match. Grace Ivey and MaKhiya McDonald both tallied one goal and one assist. Jazmine Wilkinson added a goal while Mia Pante contributed two assists and Taylor Jernigan offered up an assist.
The Maroon & White wrapped up the 30th winning season in 31 years of the program in 2023. The Aggies posted a 10-8-4 record, playing in their 28th NCAA Tournament in the last 29 years and advancing to the second round for the 24th time in the last 26 years – a mark eclipsed only by North Carolina.
Texas A&M returns 19 letterwinners from the 2023 campaign, including eight players who started at least 50 percent of last season's 22 matches. The returnees account for 34 of the Aggies' 45 goals from last season. Texas A&M welcomes back All-SEC performers Carolyn Calzada and Pante. Other key returnees include former SEC All-Freshman performers Adysen Armenta, Quinn Cornog and Margo Matula.
The Horned Frogs posted a 10-6-3 record in 2023, including a 6-2-2 mark in Big 12 Conference play. TCU had a seven-year string of advancing to the NCAA Tournament snapped. The Horned Frogs leading scorer from last year Gracie Brian graduated, but they return a pair of players with double-digits in the points column. Seven Castain recorded 15 points on seven goals and one assist and A.J. Hennessey tallied 12 points on four goals and four assists.
Sunday is the final spring home match for the Aggies. They wrap up the vernal session Saturday, April 13, when they travel to San Marcos for mini-matches against Texas State and Texas A&M-Corpus Christi.
