On Friday, the Aggies will take off
t Killeen to participate in the Sam
louston Invitational. The tourna
ment will be especially important
because many of the teams the
Aggies will face in the state tourna
ment in October will be there.
Maria Resendez enters the Kil
leen event with a hefty .409 batting
average to lead Texas A&M. Right
behind her is second baseman Carrie
Austgen, who Galloway labels the
best all-around player he has ever
coached. Austgen currently carries a
.367 average.
Reese leads the team in runs bat
ted in with 16, and .296 hitter
Melody Pritchard follows with 12.
The 17 wins in a row for the Aggies
this season closes them to within
eight of the season record for regular
season consecutive wins (24), which
was set last year before the national
tournament. Going back to last year,
the Ags have won 35 regular season
games in a row. The last loss was to
the University of Texas-Arlington on
March 29.
Highlights of the fall season so far
include a perfect game pitched by
Stoll against UT-A in the San Anto
nio Tournament. Earlier this year,
she struck out 13 batters against
Baylor.
Mary Lou War go became the first
player to go 4-for-4 in a game since
fall of 1979, when she turned the
trick against Oklahoma. Austgen last
did it.
The Ags are currently only 11
stolen bases away from setting a
school fall record with 35 so far. For
ty-five is the record.
“Having a 17-0 record is almost
unthinkable,” said Galloway. “I’m
really pleased with the attitude and
work of the team this year. Especial
ly Shannon Murray and Carrie Au
stgen.”

Galloway said he is pleased with
the work of Lori Stoll so far.
“She looks almost unbelievable at
times, ” he said, “but she has yet to
stay consistent. But, she’s already
matched her strikeout total for all of
last fall (76).”
