Texas A&M baseball lands commitment from elite Maryland Terrapin Shortstop
Texas A&M baseball lands commitment from elite Maryland Terrapin Shortstop Texas A&M baseball coach Michael Earley just scored a massive win in the transfer portal, landing one of the top bats in college baseball. Late Thursday night, he secured a commitment from Maryland shortstop transfer Chris Hacopian after two standout seasons in the Big Ten. Hacopian fills an immediate need in the lineup, especially with Aggie career home run leader Jace LaViolette and Kaeden Kent likely heading to the 2025 MLB Draft. A former All-Big Ten selection, he brings solid defensive skills and a proven offensive presence. Under new infield coach Cliff Pennington, Hacopian is expected to take the next step forward in his junior season at Texas A&M. During his time at Maryland, he compiled an impressive career slash line of .347/.465/.614 with 29 home runs, 103 RBIs, and a 1.080 OPS, while only striking out a total of 19 times. Pairing him with Caden Sorrell and Gavin Grahovac gives the Aggies a powerful trio—if they can put it all together, they'll be a formidable offensive force. Below you can see the announcement on X.
