Basketball

The Bears and their fans from up the road in Waco came to ruin the Longhorns’ fun en route to a 64-44 victory. Their strategy? Completely shutting out Texas’ stars. 

In the last four weeks, the Texas women’s basketball team has played eight games. That averages out to two games per week on top of practices and school obligations. Five of the past seven have been on the road, testing the Longhorns’ endurance over the last month. 

Texas junior guard Jase Febres caught a pass from sophomore guard Andrew Jones with the game tied and one second left on the shot clock. 

Texas head coach Shaka Smart has historically struggled against TCU. But, the last two times the squads have matched up — in the NIT in 2019 and in Fort Worth on Wednesday night — the Longhorns finished the night with a win.
