Feb 22, 2026 | Softball
CATHEDRAL CITY, Calif. – The No. 13 Texas A&M Aggies split Saturday's doubleheader at the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic, falling 8-2 to No. 6 Nebraska before rebounding with a 7-1 win over LMU at Big League Dreams.
In game one against Nebraska (9-4), Texas A&M (10-5) threatened throughout, leaving 11 runners on base while facing one of the nation's top pitchers in Jordy Frahm. KK Dement finished 2-for-4 with an RBI, driving in the Aggies' first run in the third inning. Frankie Vrazel later scored in the sixth after an RBI double from Ariel Kowalewski.
Mya Perez doubled and reached base twice, while Tallen Edwards also reached twice to help create scoring chances. Nebraska broke the game open with a four-run third inning, highlighted by three consecutive doubles and a sacrifice fly, then added insurance with a three-run home run in the sixth.
Sidne Peters was tagged with the loss after pitching 5.0 innings and allowing five runs, three earned, with four strikeouts.
Texas A&M responded in the nightcap against LMU (12-2), using a five-run fifth inning to pull away. Kennedy Powell paced the offense, going 2-for-3 with a triple and an RBI. Dement added a two-run double to right-center, while Paislie Allen drove in a run with a single and stole a base. Micaela Wark and Vrazel each recorded an RBI during the frame.
Sydney Lessentine delivered a dominant performance in the circle, tossing a complete game while allowing one run on four hits with six strikeouts. The lone LMU run came on a solo home run in the sixth inning.
The Aggies struck first in the second inning when Dement scored on a wild pitch before Powell followed with an RBI triple to right-center. Texas A&M finished the night with nine hits and drew four walks.
