Following a one-year hiatus in 2025 \u2014 after being the preseason top-ranked team in the country \u2014 the Aggies return to baseball’s big dance. They earned the No. 12 seed in the NCAA Tournament.<\/p>\n
\u00a0A&M was mightily impressive this season, going 39-14 so far and ranking 14th\u00a0in RPI, the key metric used to determine the tournament field. Four of the last five NCAA Tournaments have included the Aggies. Its 18-11 record in SEC play was good enough to draw a No. 3 seed in the conference tournament.<\/p>\n
Even though the Aggies lost their only SEC Tournament game this season, they still earned a top-16 seed, which means they will host a regional. They boast a dynamic offense that’s third in the SEC in team batting average and second in home runs.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Joining Texas A&M in the College Station Regional are: Lamar (34-25), which won the Southland Conference Tournament; Texas State (36-24), which played in the top midmajor conference in the country, the Sun Belt;\u00a0and USC (43-15), which finished fourth in the Big Ten.<\/p>\n
