The Texas A&M softball team has been on a roll of late and they haven’t shown any signs of slowing down as they enter the final months of the season.

Currently, the ladies are on an eight game win streak dating back to the March 26 win vs. Missouri. The streak includes sweeps of South Carolina and Oklahoma State as well as midweek wins over Texas State and McNeese State.

Over the current eight game win streak, the ladies have outscored their opponents 68-12. Of course, this level of success is not unique to the current stretch. A combination of strong pitching and hot bats have been the key to Aggie Softball’s success over the season.

The ladies are an astounding 35-3 on the season and, with 13 games left, seem like an extremely probable NCAA tournament team. Looking to be the first National Championship team at A&M since 1978, they currently sit at No. 4 in RPI rankings and No. 5 in both USA Softball and the Coaches Poll.

Let’s take a look at the Aggie starters and how they are doing so far this season.
