(KBTX) – Twelve times this season, a Texas A&M athletic program raised a Texas-shaped trophy after knocking off the Texas Longhorns.

It was more than enough for the Aggies to claim the Lone Star Showdown title for the 2025-26 season.

A&M downed the Longhorns 11.5-7.5 in the season-long contest between the athletic departments, claiming the title for the first time since it was renewed in 2024.

On Saturday, the men’s and women’s track and field teams recorded higher team finishes at the SEC Championship, ensuring the Aggies’ win. The men’s squad finished fourth, ahead of Texas’ seventh-place finish. The women finished tied for sixth, three spots ahead of the Longhorns.

Every single matchup between the programs is worth one point. For men’s and women’s basketball, which play Texas twice during the regular season, each game is worth a half point. A series win in baseball is worth a point.

A&M soccer, volleyball, men’s and women’s cross country, women’s tennis, men’s and women’s indoor track and baseball all claimed wins over Texas. A&M men’s basketball earned a half point this season.

Texas claimed last year’s title 12.5-5.5.

The rivalry debuted in 2004 and ran through 2012 when A&M left the Big 12 for the SEC. It was renewed due to Texas’ entrance into the SEC. The Longhorns have claimed seven titles in that span to A&M’s three.

What a win, and what a series for No. 10 Texas A&M (39-13, 18-11 SEC) on Saturday afternoon, as the Aggies clinched their final home series vs. Mississippi State, a 7-6 victory behind an impressive rally, scoring four runs in the final two frames after the Bulldogs took back the lead late in the game.

After using up nearly every pitching option over the first two games, second-year coach Michael Earley had to rely on Clemson transfer Ethan Darden, who started Game 1 but threw only 30-plus pitches. While this decision was questionable, Darden lasted three innings and allowed just one run, prompting Gavin Lyons to make his second appearance in the series.

However, Lyons allowed three runs, leading to Cooper Powell’s likely game-saving scoreless innings, including three strikeouts, while reliable closer Clayton Freshcorn, who earned his 12th save on Friday night, provided Aggie fans another shaky, but exciting end to one of the more important series of the season.

After allowing freshman Jacob Parker to hit a 2-run home run in the top of the 8th to take a 6-5 lead, Freshcorn locked in, especially after senior Bear Harrision’s double scored Caden Sorrell and Chris Hacopian to re-take the lead. Ending the game with two strikeouts and a pop-up, Texas A&M has secured a double-bye in the SEC Tournament and finished no lower than third in the SEC standings.

The winning numbers in Friday evening’s drawing of the “Texas All or Nothing Night” game were:

4, 7, 8, 10, 11, 15, 18, 19, 21, 22, 23, 24

(four, seven, eight, ten, eleven, fifteen, eightteen, nineteen, twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three, twenty-four)
