Wade Cooper prepares for competition with Texas A&M's pitching lineup

Wade Cooper, a transfer pitcher from Texas State, is set to join Texas A&M's roster and compete for a starting job. After a freshman season with a 4.72 ERA and 73 strikeouts, he previously faced the Aggies during a midweek game, throwing 38 pitches and earning the win.
