For the 13th straight year, Texas has made the Sweet 16 in the NCAA Tournament. In order to extend this impressive streak, the team will need to get past the Michigan Wolverines on Friday.

With the fifth-overall seed in the tournament, the Longhorns were just a spot shy of hosting their region of the tournament leading up to the Final Four. Instead, they’ll host the first two rounds with Texas having just faced one of the other three teams coming to Austin.

Seniors Morgan Johnson and Yaasmeen Bedart-Ghani both started their careers for Texas with a win over Rice way back in August of 2015. Now they are finishing their careers out with a win over West Virginia.

Saturday’s volleyball game against Kansas showed fans and opponents alike how the Longhorns’ new adjustments fared with its tried and tested rotation, and it returned yet another positive result: a seventh straight win.
