The Aggies are currently led by G. Guerrieri, who has been the head coach since the program's inception in 1993. The Aggies have won 10 regular season championships, 7 in the Big 12 Conference, and an additional 3 since moving to the SEC starting during the 2012 season. Notably, the Aggies won four straight Big 12 regular season conference titles from 2004-07.[2]

The 2014 team had 22 roster players, with 14 scholarships to utilize between them.[3] The 2014 team finished first in the SEC in its third year as a member of the conference. The team advanced to its 20th consecutive NCAA Tournament, where they eventually lost to Virginia in the program's first appearance in the College Cup.
