In the biggest win of Karen Aston’s Texas coaching career, the Longhorns beat the #2-ranked Baylor Bears 85-79 in Waco. It was Texas’ first win over the Bears since 2010, dating back to the Gail Goestenkors era.
The Lady Longhorns now have sole possession of first place in the Big 12 conference at 13-0. Texas has also won 17 games in a row since losing to #1-ranked UConn in December.
To put this victory into perspective, Baylor’s only loss of the season was against UConn. And, Baylor was steamrolling opponents in the Big 12 building to this clash between 12-0 teams in conference play.
