Coach Gary Blair walks out on the court to start his final season as the women’s basketball coach at Texas A&M.

The Texas A&M women’s basketball team had their pre-season exhibition game against Oklahoma Baptist on Wed. Nov 3. The game was a show of force for the reigning SEC Champions, whose defense did not allow a single point during the first quarter. The Aggies held the Bison to just 38 points, while scoring 89 points for themselves. This was also the first game of Gary Blair’s final season as the head coach of the women’s basketball program at Texas A&M. The Aggies will return to Reed Arena to take on the A&M-Corpus Christi Islanders at 7pm on Nov. 9.
