COLLEGE STATION, TX -- Texas A&M will be showcased as one of the best Division I women’s basketball programs in the nation with two appearances on ESPN2’s 2013 Big Monday schedule, the organization announced Thursday.

The Aggies travel to Baton Rouge, La., on Monday, Feb. 4 for an 8 p.m. (CT) contest against LSU. In addition, A&M is slated to host Kentucky at Reed Arena on Monday, Feb. 18 at 6 p.m. (CT) as part of the annual Play 4Kay campaign. Both games will be broadcast nationally on ESPN2.

Texas A&M has been rewarded with Big Monday games for the fifth year in-a-row. The Aggies are also the only Southeastern Conference program to appear on Big Monday twice during the 2012-13 season.

Texas A&M returns two starters and eight letterwinners from its 2011-12 squad that finished 24-11 overall and advanced to the NCAA Sweet 16 for the fourth time in five years.
