In a landmark victory on April 1, 2025, the Texas women's basketball team secured its spot in the NCAA Final Four for the first time in over two decades by defeating TCU. Madison Booker starred with an 18-point performance and Rori Harmon, returning from a knee injury, contributed significantly to the win as Texas’ strong defense forced 21 turnovers and six blocks in a 58-47 contest.
Looking ahead to the national semifinals in Tampa, Florida, Texas is set to face defending champion South Carolina. This historic achievement, contrasting sharply with Texas’ long-established football dominance, marks a revitalized era for Longhorns basketball as they aim to build on their legacy amidst fierce competition and high expectations in the Final Four series.
