Nice work ladies!! Gigem!
Taking the crown.
In Week 10’s ESPN.com/USA Softball Poll, Texas A&M moved up two spots from No. 3 to the top of the college softball world. The Aggies are now the consensus No. 1 team in the nation.
Surpassing powerhouses Texas and Oklahoma, Trisha Ford has built a monster.
It marks the highest ranking in the history of the poll.
The jump comes after a statement series for the program.
Hosting then-No. 6 LSU, the Aggies took care of business in all three games, sweeping the Tigers for the first time in program history.
The accomplishment also marked the first time A&M has swept a top-10 opponent in eight years — the last being No. 7 Ole Miss in 2018.
Adding three wins over the weekend, the Maroon & White boast a 37-5 overall record and currently sit atop the SEC standings at 11-3.
The Aggies have torched through the nation’s sixth-hardest schedule, according to D1Softball.com.
With a 14-1 record away from home and a 15-5 mark against ranked opponents, A&M’s resume is as good as it gets, coming in at No. 1 in RPI.
Previously ranked above A&M, then-No. 1 Texas and then-No. 2 Oklahoma both dropped SEC series this weekend, allowing the Aggies’ dominant weekend to propel them to the top.
In three years, Ford has taken Aggie softball from a once-thriving program to the top of the mountain.
But ultimately, the Aggies want to be at the summit in June, not April.
With 10 regular season games remaining, A&M’s resume has a chance to grow even stronger. Series at Missouri, vs. No. 10 Arkansas and at No. 2 Tennessee awaits the Aggies.
And as winners of 12 straight games, top-ranked Texas A&M is steamrolling everything in its path and plans to do so all the way to Oklahoma City.
