What a meet and what a year. I'm not the most knowledgeable track fan and I'm just a young man. I gave up track offers at D1 schools to attend Texas A&M on an academic scholarship. Track had been and always will be my favorite sport. I write novels on here for you guys and try to discuss track any chance I get, even if it's with one of you or none of you lol. Aggie Track and Field is one of my favorite passions and it always will be. I've gotten asked before would I rather win 1 track championship or 1 football championship, and the answer will always be track and field.
I was 10 when we won the first one in '09, and a senior in high school when we won indoors in 2017. I've seen them come close so many times before. I know I always hype this team and say this year could be different. But hell this year it was.
Like I mentioned earlier, I had started a job with a professional sports team, and put it all on hold while my mother was in a coma and currently lays in hospice paralyzed, mute, and with memory loss. There's not many wins currently in the tswift household, but watching us all year and watching us cross that finish line knowing USC was in 8th brought me to tears! I wanted this badly! I needed it!
It's been an honor covering this team not just last year, but with some of these guys over the past 5 or even 6 years! I tried to get many people into this sport and this team as much as I can! I write little previews, I share our recruits, I share my thoughts trying to grow the fan base and appreciation for this collection of talent.
This team is full of great athletes and better men. This team is full of Seniors. Some that scored and some who worked hard over 4/5 years as workout partners, hype men, everything. At the end of the day, everyone in Cushing from the head hancho Pat Henry, to his assistant coaches to his staff, to the field operations crew, ticketing, maintenance, janitorial, lighting, construction, and to you, yes you, this championship is yours. Let's honor these guys and celebrate this momentous feat.
Your fightin' Texas A&M Aggies are your 2025 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field National Champions!!! God Bless and Gig' Em Aggies
