COLLEGE STATION, Texas - The Texas A&M softball team kicks off the fall slate tomorrow with a 5 p.m. doubleheader vs. Blinn College at the Aggie Softball Complex.

Fans unable to attend Wednesday's match-ups can catch the action worldwide on 95.1-3 The Zone HD, RadioAggieland.com or AggieAthletics.com. Each of the Aggies' home games this fall are free to the public.

The No. 19 Aggies (NFCA final) finished the 2012 season in the NCAA College Station Regional with a seventh-ever 40-win season under head coach Jo Evans.

The team returns 15 letterwinners from last season, including All-Americans Meagan May and Mel Dumezich. Three freshmen, Cali Lanphear, Alex Masek and Breanna Dozier, join the Aggies for the first time this fall.

The Blinn Buccaneers are coming off of their fourth straight NJCAA National Championship Tournament, where they placed sixth. The team placed four athletes to All-America teams in 2012.

The Aggies and Buccaneers last faced in the fall of 2011, resulting in a 5-1 victory by A&M on a three-run home run by then-junior Mel Dumezich.
