The No. 14 Texas A&M Aggies baseball team took their second straight win over the New Mexico State, their third consecutive victory overall, with a 7-1 triumph Saturday afternoon at Blue Bell Park.
Justin Lamkin took a well-deserved win for Texas A&M. He went seven innings, giving up eight hits, one earned run, no walks, and struck out 10.
Kaeden Kent showed why he deserves to be the A&M leadoff hitter, going 2-for-5 on the day with one run scored and a team-high three runs batted in.
Kent started the scoring for A&M in the third inning, as a triple by the young star scored Sawyer Farr and a sacrifice fly by Jace LaViolette scored Kent right after.
The Texas A&M squad rode a four-run fourth inning, which came together thanks to a wild pitch that plated Gavin Kash, who is fresh off a grand slam in Friday night’s contest.
A single from Jacob Galloway scored Terrence Kiel II, and a double off the bat of Kent scored Galloway and Jamal George, extending the lead to 6-0 for the Maroon and White.
New Mexico State got on the board for the first time in the weekend with a single in the sixth inning, but a double by LaViolette in the bottom half of the inning scored Sawyer Farr and extended the lead back to six, where it stayed for the rest of the game.
Luke Jackson would close out the game for Texas A&M, pitching the other two innings, allowing three hits, but kept the score the same and also struck out two hitters to cap off the win.
The Aggies now see themselves finding their groove, as they sit with a 9-5 record after a shady past couple of weeks on the diamond.
Is it the new haircuts the offense is sporting? We may never know.
The series between the two Aggie teams concludes tomorrow with a 1:00 p.m. showdown in College Station.

No. 20 Texas A&M (22–5, 5–4 SEC) returns to Bryan‑College Station this week as the Aggies host Sam Houston (14–13, 4–5 SLC) in a midweek matchup at Olsen Field.
The Aggies are coming off a perfect 4–0 week, taking care of HCU in the midweek before sweeping Missouri in dominant fashion to secure their first SEC series win of the season. Nearly every bat in the lineup contributed, and the conference took notice.
Junior infielder Gavin Grahovac earned SEC Co‑Player of the Week honors, while freshman outfielder Jorian Wilson was named SEC Freshman of the Week. It was a strong showcase of the team’s depth, highlighted further by Nico Partida logging the first multi‑home run game of his young career.
While the pitching staff is still working through inconsistencies, the offense continues to provide enough cushion to withstand the occasional rough inning. The starters delivered several solid stretches over the weekend, but the lack of bullpen depth remains a concern if the bats ever go cold. When the offense stalls, games can get out of hand quickly.
Sam Houston enters the matchup having won six of its last eight and hovering just above .500 for most of the season. Outfielder Jeric Curtis leads the Bearkats with a .345 average, five doubles, and two triples. If he reaches base, his speed makes him a threat to score from anywhere on the field. Still, Sam Houston averages fewer than six runs per game compared to A&M’s nine, meaning they’ll likely need an above‑average offensive night to keep pace.
This will be the 139th meeting between the programs, with Texas A&M holding a commanding 93‑43‑2 advantage. The Aggies have run‑ruled the Bearkats in each of the last two matchups, outscoring them 27–4, and carry a three‑game winning streak into Tuesday. If A&M plays to its standard, the midweek streak should remain intact.

MAGNOLIA, Texas (KTRK) — Texas Rangers confirmed to ABC13 that they have an active and open investigation into Magnolia Mayor Matthew “Doc” Dantzer following allegations of assault against the city’s secretary.
Bryan Emery spoke to ABC13 on behalf of his fiancée, Christian Gable, the Magnolia City secretary.
Gable told her fiancé what happened last October during an out-of-town work conference with Mayor Dantzer.
Emery said Gable, who was pregnant at the time, told him the mayor was walking her back to the hotel.
“He’s like, ‘Well, that only means one thing, once they get past the belly, they come off easier, and he reaches over there and tries to pull her pants down,’” Emery said.
Next, he said his fiancée threatened to kill the mayor, and when they got back to the hotel, Emery said the mayor went a step further towards Gable.
“He turns around and says this is how he needs to deal with you and grabs her by the throat and pins her up – there’s these big silver pillars in front of valet – pins her up against this pillar in front of the valet, she fights her off, turns around and yells at the valet people ‘nobody seen that, nobody’s going to do anything,’” Emery said.
ABC13 reached out to the attorney representing Mayor Dantzer. He sent ABC13 a statement denying the allegations and saying Dantzer looks forward to defending himself through the legal process.
The city’s attorney said they have no comment, but Emery hopes justice will be served.
“I’m really hoping they get everything they need and get him off the streets pretty soon,” Emery said.
The mayor has not been charged.
