Texas A&M softball makes history, but for all the wrong reasons

After an already head-scratching Saturday where Texas A&M fell short to Liberty, the Aggies came into Sunday not looking confident at all. In the first of the doubleheader, the Aggies found themselves trailing early, leading to some very nervous faces in the stands.

The Aggies eventually found themselves up 11-7 before Liberty finally tied the game at 11 in the bottom of the seventh. Trisha Ford, who's done an excellent job all year long, may have waited too long to take Emiley Kennedy out of the game. She was replaced by freshman Sydney Lessentine who got the final out in the bottom seventh.

Kennedy Powell was able to break the tie and eventually help get three runs in extra innings to eventually win the first game to force a Game 7. Following that Game 7 immediately became a night that Aggie fans will just want to forget.

Aggies become first No. 1 seed ever to not advance to Super Regionals

In the second game of the doubleheader, Ford called Lessentine's number to start the game. She got off to a pretty solid start but was eventually replaced as the Aggies were up 3-1. Fast forward to a tie game. After a 3-run blast to left field for the Flames to take a 6-3 lead in the sixth inning, the Aggies were able to get back in the game to cut it to a one-run lead in the seventh.

Kramer Eschete was the last hope for the Ags, but a swing and miss sent the Aggies home, and Liberty to their first Super Regional appearance in school history.

There will be plenty of fingers being pointed at Trisha Ford, which is to be expected. On the other hand, she's turned this program around for this team to experience their first No. 1 overall seed in program history. Some fingers will be pointing at the players with an emphasis toward the pitchers, who didn't play their best baseball over the weekend, and they'd probably agree.

Some fans will just call this a typical Texas A&M to collapse, especially with all the cards in their favor. While Oklahoma fans are cheering this collapse taking place, maybe it's a good thing that Greg Sankey shut down the SEC Championship. They weren't ready for the big moment, and maybe it should've taken the SEC Championship to realize that instead of the first weekend of the Bryan-College Station Regional.
