He made a big jump this year. Sounds determined to stay in the draft.

After winning the SEC Tournament on Saturday evening, Texas softball (42-10, 16-8 SEC) has earned a No. 1 seed (No. 2 overall) in the 2026 NCAA Tournament. The Longhorns will host the Austin Regional from May 15-17, which will feature Wagner, Baylor, and Wisconsin coming to Red & Charline McCombs Field. Texas is the defending national champion and looks to be hitting its stride heading into postseason play after an impressive run in Lexington, Ky. "Obviously, I'd like to thank Kentucky for putting on a first-class tournament," UT head coach Mike White said on Saturday night. "The weather turned out great. The temperatures felt awesome after being in Austin where it could be a lot hotter. Of course,e congratulations to Alabama. The season they are having right now. They were picked ninth in the SEC and they've really showed everybody what kind of team they are. They are a great force, and they are going to have probably a great postseason as well. To my team, the resilience and the fight that they showed coming back against some teams that we've played before, never easy. And played some really good softball throughout the week. We had some hiccups here and there, but we bounced back and made the plays when he had to and of course had great pitching from Teagan Kavan." The Longhorns leaned on their ace pitcher last postseason, and will do so once again in the coming weeks. "I won't lie. For little girls that might be watching this out there. I think last night I kind of told myself, 'I'm kind of tired, I've kind of thrown a lot', and then I thought that's the fear of failure that's talking in my head," Kavan said after Saturday night's win. "I have to not listen to that. If I fear failure and I can't reach success, so just telling that voice to be quiet. I trust myself, no matter what it was going to be I was just going to compete. I just wanted to compete today for my team no matter if it was pretty or it was ugly." This story will be updated.

BTW, I talked with Joe Sterling Friday evening. He's reporting to Texas June 1 (flies in May 31) ... currently 6-4 and 197-pounds

Somehow Alabama is the #1 overall seed despite getting stomped by Texas yesterday Horns are the overall #2 seed and will play Wagner fri afternoon in the Austin regional

I was at the State Track Meet in 1976, watching future UT pole vaulter Kieth Sanders, and saw Lam Jones win three first places including a miraculous come from behind victory in the mile relay. I saw him win a Gold Medal at the Olympics later that summer. Till one of the aforementioned athletes makes an Olympic team and wins a gold Medal, in a sprint, I will go with Lam Jones as being the fastest.

In talking to his dad at a track meet earlier this year... it may well come down to how much he grows the next 1.5 years. If he grows a couple more inches, it would make pro track a near formality based on the convo IMO

Not considering Worthy a recruit - although technically correct, he never set foot on another campus.

Absolutely. I love what they did in the portal to build around him. I like their roster more this season than last on paper should he return

Hiarious

Happy Birthday bud! Always stay a “bad ass”! May the Lord bless you with many many more!

You are one of my faves.---- Carry on, and looking forward to hearing more from you.

Johnny Jones state meet. was the 100 yards not meter and was 9.21 (hand timed) Fast 100 meters was 9.85 but was hand timed and adjusted to 10.14

So many games with high-quality opponents are decided by the smallest factor, it would be a VERY good season at 10-2 with this schedule. I've looked at it all, tried to sort out trap games, other SEC opponents that have improved over last year, some that have regressed, potential injuries and impacts, etc. Decided it was way too hard to do all that, so landed on 12-0. You heard it here first. We go undefeated on our way to the Natty. Arch will be anointed as the GOAT QB at Texas. Flood will get an extension and JZ will have a meltdown after our greatest season since 2005.

I think track distances were still in yards when Johnny Lam Jones was timed.

On to 51 for Gerry Hamilton!! 🤘🏻🤘🏼🤘🤘🏽🤘🏾🤘🏿

Rowing championship is going to be wild! Tennessee beating the Texas varsity 8s is going to be great motivation for Texas

Happy birthday Gerry

In other news today, Stanford came from behind to upset Michigan in women's lacrosse, so they are accumulating points there unexpectedly. Also, Texas rowing lost in varsity eights to Tennessee which cost them the SEC championship and likely the top ranking in the next poll. Earlier in the season, Stanford beat Tennessee in varsity eights and Texas beat Stanford, so anybody's game at NCAAs.

They do. In the weird world of NCAA sports, M WP is a fall sport. They went out in semis, which only nets them 55 points (excluded almost certainly in their score) because M WP has only 8 teams in the tournament.

Great job, Rori! Max it out.

If I would have told you that the Mystics drafted both Betts and Rori and it's Rori that's on the court in the closing minutes against New York, y'all would tell me go get my head checked. Oh and she just made the game tying assist to Kiki🤘🏿

Cost Texas The SEC Championship. The NCAA championship is going to be wild.

Jamaal and Marquise were a thing of beauty, absolutely incredible form and watching them just leave people in the dust is 🤘🐂🤩
