TALLAHASSEE, FL -- The Aggie offense never got on track scoring only one goal in the third and one in the fourth. The defense allowed 4 goals in the first quarter and then held Florida State to 3 goals the last 3 quarters. Jason Jolly was exceptional in the cage and the defense turned away the Noles time and time again despite being on the field most of the game. The Aggies cleard 29 to 21 over FSU, faceoffs FSU 6-11 A&M 5-11, A&M with 29 clears, FSU - 21. A&M 1-7 manup FSU 1-4, ground balls A&M 29 FSU 13, shots A&M 29 FSU 46. Outstanding play by Goodrich in the cage for Florida State. Final note from last night: I don't know what it is about fans coming on to the field during a game and making contact with A&M players, but this is the second year in a row we've experienced this disturbing trend. It should be noted that neither incident was penalized.
The Aggies take on the USC Trojans tonight at 5pm. The Ags need to come out strong tonight to take home one of the now two possible wins from Florida. They look to step up their game and build on last year's performance.
