COLLEGE STATION, Texas – The Texas A&M men’s basketball team will get a jump start on the 2015-16 campaign this summer when the squad embarks on a 10-tour of Italy and Greece in mid-August.
The trip will span from Aug. 13-23 and see the Aggies visit the Italian cities of Rome, Latina, Sorrento and Pompeii before concluding the voyage in Athens, Greece. Four games against local competition will highlight the trip as the team gets a head start on the 2015-16 campaign, which will tip-off in mid-November.
"We're excited about this opportunity to take our team to Europe,” Texas A&M head coach Billy Kennedy said.
