From Wednesday's local paper:

The number of active COVID-19 cases among Brazos County residents surpassed 1,300 for the first time since February on Wednesday as health officials reported 165 new cases.

Thursday:

The number of active COVID-19 cases among Brazos County residents surpassed 1,500 for the first time since February on Thursday as health officials reported 304 new cases. It was the highest number of new cases reported in a single day since the pandemic began.

Another interesting tidbit:

U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz discussed his thoughts on how to handle the COVID-19 pandemic and other topics during a Wednesday visit to the Texas A&M Bush School of Government and Public Service.
