COLLEGE STATION, Texas – The No. 4 Texas A&M Aggies head to Malibu, California for a three-game series with the Pepperdine Waves. The Maroon and White look to extend their 35-game non-conference regular-season win streak and win their sixth consecutive non-conference regular-season series.
The Aggies enter their three-game series at Pepperdine scoring runs at an alarming rate. The Maroon and White have outscored their foes 57-7 on the season. The 57 runs is the most for the Aggies through five games since 2004 and ranks second behind only the 1946 campaign when they put up 83 runs.
Texas A&M has scored 27 unanswered runs since allowing a Stephen F. Austin to score in the second inning. The Aggies have put at least one runner on base in each of their last 18 frames. The last time the Maroon and White went down in order was the sixth inning of Sunday's game against Hofstra.
Every game of the series will be available for viewing on TheW.tv. All three games will air on SportsRadio 1150/102.7 The Zone.
