Texas A&M and Boston College will begin a new home-and-home series, with the first meeting to set take place during the 2018-19 season.

The Aggies will host Jim Christian’s team next season at Reed Arena on December 8.

Boston College will host the 2019 game at Conte Forum.

The Eagles went 19-16 this past season after winning just 16 games combined during the prior two seasons. The team loses standout guard Jerome Robinson (20.7 ppg) but does return 6-1 guard Ky Bowman (17.6 ppg), who recently withdrew from the 2018 NBA draft.

Billy Kennedy’s squad has added a few new series to its non-conference schedule, as Texas A&M has already announced future meetings with Gonzaga and Oregon State.

Kennedy must replace several key contributors in College Station, with Robert Williams, Tyler Davis, and DJ Hogg all remaining in the draft.

The Aggies finished 22-13 overall and made it to the Sweet 16 for the second time in three seasons before losing to eventual national runner-up Michigan.
