Texas Advances to Final Four After Defeating TCU 58-47

The Texas women's basketball team has advanced to the Final Four for the first time since 2003, defeating TCU 58-47 in the Elite Eight. Led by Madison Booker with 18 points and Rori Harmon, who played a crucial defensive role, Texas showcased a strong defensive strategy that stifled TCU's shooting, limiting them to just 26.7% from the field. Coach Vic Schaefer emphasized the importance of defense, which proved vital as TCU struggled against Texas' length and pressure. Despite TCU's Hailey Van Lith scoring 17 points, the Frogs were unable to maintain momentum after a tough start. This victory marks a significant achievement for the Longhorns, who tied for the SEC regular season championship and are now poised for their fourth Final Four appearance. Harmon expressed pride in her team and their journey, highlighting the emotional weight of the victory after her recovery from injury.
