A&M rapped out a total of 30 hits in the two games and scored just as many runs in taking 12-1 and 18-5 victories.

Rightfielder Shelton McMath was two-for-three with two RBI’s and David Pieczynski belted a pinch-hit homer to lead off the sixth inning. Junior Mark Ross got the win for the Aggies, his first of the year which brings his record to 1-3. Junior Alan Buonasera pitched the last two innings in relief. A&M exploded for 19 hits in the nightcap and coasted to an 18-5 win. Twelve different players got hits in that game for A&M, with McMath going three-for-three and Bonner three-for-four to lead the onslaught. Home runs were hit by Gary Bryant, his fourth of the season, and Kyle Hawthorne, his seventh. Hawthorne is now only two homers away from the A&M season record of nine, set by' Byron Barber back in 1961. Junior Mark Thurmond picked up the win, his fourth of the year with out a loss.
