"I usually get the names and a couple of stats and I usually get stuff like No. 11 (Texas, Nikki Arlitt) is afraid of clowns," Weaver said. "We are trying to get an organization together, it's called Aggie Arsenal."

In the first half when Texas was attacking, Weaver and other students performed circus music.

A&M senior forward Ashlee Pistorius scored on a penalty kick at 72 minutes to become the career Big 12 leader in goals with 70.

The support showed by the fans did not go unnoticed by the players.

"It's unreal," said A&M sophomore goalkeeper Kristin Arnold. "There is not another college place that is like this. The 12th Man is amazing, and the tradition, and they are just always out here to support us and we love them, [they are] the best crowd in the nation."

Texas Head Coach Chris Petrucelli said that his team enjoys playing in front of a crowd like the one on Friday night.

"It's a place our kids enjoy coming to and playing at," Petrucelli said. "It's loud and the people are passionate."
