Head baseball coach Jim Schlossnagle announced on Tuesday that Ryan Targac would follow in the footsteps of Troy Claunch & Austin Bost by wearing No. 12 for the 2024 season.
The honor of wearing No. 12 was established by Schlossnagle and his staff during the 2022 season and is typically awarded to a player in his last year of eligibility that has exemplified the core values of the university and program at a very high level.
Targac spoke on what it means for him to be chosen to wear the number 12 for the Aggie baseball team.
“Being named No. 12 is such an honor to me,” To be able to represent Texas A&M and what it stands for is such a privilege. I wouldn’t be in this position if it weren’t for God, my family, coaches, and teammates. The work still continues though. I will continue to show up and be the best version of myself and to serve others.”

Targac will no doubt represent the number well and we are eager to see the Aggie baseball team take the field on February 16th.
