A quick look at our men’s athletic programs this year.
Tennis – NCAA : 2nd
The tennis team finished with arguably its best season in the history of the Texas program. The team finished 2nd having lost to the reigning champion Georgia in the NCAA Championship match.
Swimming – NCAA : 2nd
The swimming team finished second to Arizona. This was Texas’ seventh 2nd place finish (to go with their 9 first place finishes)
Basketball – AP : 5th
Texas had an impressive non-conference start wins over UCLA and Tennessee and close losses to Michigan State and Wisconsin in the preseason. The team ended conference play with a share of the Big 12 title. The tourney run ended in the Elite 8 with a loss to Memphis. The team finished 5th with a record of 31-7 (excellent given their top 5 SOS).
Football – AP : 10th
Three losses to K-State, OU, and A&M put a sour taste in Texas fan’s mouths, but a pounding of Arizona State in the Holiday bowl and accomplishing another 10 win season ended things on a positive note . Many programs would be happy with a 10th place ranking, but Texas fans expect more.
Baseball – TBD
Golf – TBD
One of ten teams playing in NCAA tourney.
Track & CC
Indoor won Big XII and finished 3rd in NCAA.
Outdoor finished 3rd in the Big 12....
