Texas A&M's SEC Tournament first-round opponent has been announced
Texas A&M's SEC Tournament first-round opponent has been announced Texas A&M (28-15, 11-19 SEC) finished the SEC regular season with a series loss to No. 10 Georgia on the road, and despite Justin Lamkin's elite 15 strikeout performance on Friday, resulting in a 6-0 win, but didn't provide any momentum going into Saturday morning. With Myles Patton on the mound, the Aggies looked good through three innings, at least. Tossing three scoreless innings with six strikeouts, Patton wasn't the central issue even after allowing Georgia to take a 2-0 lead after Slate Alford's two-run homer, as reliever Weston Moss allowed four more runs in the seventh, which broke the game wide open. After Kaeden Kent's meaningless solo home run in the ninth, the Bulldogs likely solidified their standing at a top 8 seed in the NCAA Tournament, while the Aggies are way on the outside looking in. With the loss, Texas A&M's hopes of making the NCAA Tournament are much clearer, needing to win the SEC Tournament to earn an automatic bid to the postseason, even though the narrative has been 13 to 14 wins in SEC play for the last two weeks. With 11 wins in conference play, if the Aggies had taken care of business against Missouri, instead of getting swept at home, this would still be the case. With the loss, Texas A&M is still the 14-seed, but after some movement, the Aggies will now face Mississippi State in Game 4 during the opening round on Tuesday, which will be a night game as the final matchup of the day. Mississippi State is one of the hottest teams in the conference after winning four consecutive series after defeating Missouri this weekend.

Texas A&M baseball loses series to Kentucky after 10-5 loss in Game 3
Texas A&M (13-14, 1-8 SEC) dropped to its third straight SEC series after a 10-5 loss to Kentucky in Game 3 on Sunday afternoon. The Texas A&M Aggies fell short against the Kentucky Wildcats in a tightly contested SEC matchup due to time constraints and strategic gameplay. The Aggies' chances of a comeback were cut short by a 4:30 drop-dead time, set to accommodate Kentucky's travel schedule. As the clock wound down, the Wildcats implemented a slowdown game strategy, effectively using every opportunity to waste time and maintain their lead. Advertisement Despite the Wildcats' tactics, the Aggies had equal opportunities to seize the lead and manage the game's pace. However, struggles on the mound and missed chances at the plate proved costly. Starting pitcher Myles Patton struggled early, allowing eight hits, a walk, and a hit batter, ultimately giving up seven runs in just four innings. Reliever Clayton Freshcorn faced similar challenges, hitting and walking two of the three batters he encountered. Offensively, the Wildcats outperformed the Aggies with 10 hits and only six strikeouts, while Texas A&M managed just six hits and struck out 12 times. Bear Harrison and Terrence Kiel have been bright spots in the Aggies' lineup in recent weeks, but the team's overall performance indicates there's significant work to be done. With pitching inconsistencies and an offense struggling to find rhythm, Texas A&M will need to refine their strategy quickly to turn their season around before time runs out. Texas A&M will host UIW on Tuesday, April 1, at 6:00 p.m. CT. The game will stream on SEC Network+.
