"In my recent conversations with the Texas Hurricanes, I have been informed that they are adding ways to involve the Aggie students more by hosting tryouts to possibly add former Aggie players to the roster," said Kindra Fry, director of sports for the Bryan College Station Convention and Visitor's Bureau.
"I think this would be a great opportunity to interact with the average college student as well as make this team more of Bryan/College Station's own. As we both know, Aggies love their football and this will extend the football season and offer the average college student an affordable option for something to do with a group of friends."
The Hurricanes, in an effort to get the community more involved, are holding tryouts on both Aug. 15 and Sept. 5.
Another bit of good news for students is the low price that can be had on tickets. With a league that strives to keep expenses, including travel, low, one can be sure that ticket prices will not spike to to make up lost revenue.
The team will be playing its games at the newly-constructed McFerrin Athletic Center on the A&M campus.
"The kids are going to fall in love with it," Williams said. "It's fast-paced. It's exciting. And, it's hard hitting. It's just great entertainment."
