The time has come for the Texas women's basketball team to tip off its campaign for yet another run in the NCAA Tournament. This year, the Longhorns earned one of the four No. 1 seeds in the tournament and are scheduled to start their postseason journey with a Round of 64 game against the William & Mary Tribe.
The Tribe is coming off of an impressive, upset victory over the High Point Panthers in the First Four round. Now, William & Mary looks to continue its unlikely journey with a win over the Horns.
