In the 2nd annual softball game, cadets and fraternity members participated in the Corps of Cadets vs. Interfraternity Council Softball Game. The Cadets fell behind but were able to leave the Aggie Sofball Complex with the trophy after a sixth inning five-run comeback with a final score of 9-6. All proceeds were donated to Texas A&M BUILD to create mobile medical clinics.
