Utility player Chris Hacopian will have a change of scenery for the 2026 college baseball season. After two seasons with the Maryland Terrapins, he is heading to College Station to play for the Texas A&M Aggies.
Hacopian and His Two Seasons with the Maryland Terrapins

In 2024, D1 Baseball, Perfect Game, and Baseball America all named him a second-team freshman All-American. He was also a part of the Big Ten’s All-Freshman team and was second-team All-Big Ten.
He was second-team All-Big Ten once again in 2025 and led the Terrapins in hits that season with 72.
