Longhorn Legends in every sport celebrate Texas's back-to-back WCWS win

After never winning a National Championship, all it took was one Women's College World Series title for the Texas Longhorns to unlock their spot in the softball dynasty conversation.

Texas secured the dominant two-game sweep over Texas Tech with a 7-3 win in Game 1, and an even more impressive 4-1 victory in Game 2.

During one of her postgame interviews, closing pitcher Teagan Kavan (who struck out five of Tech's final six batters) made it clear what it means to play for Texas.

"I'm so proud to be a Longhorn," Kavan said.

Now, with back-to-back National Championships to their name, everyone is celebrating Texas. That included Longhorn Legends, regardless of the sport, giving the team its flowers for defeating the Red Raiders in the WCWS once again.

It wasn't just recent or current Texas athletes celebrating the win, either. Legendary Texas pitcher Cat Osterman couldn't hold back her praise of the Horns' performance, especially for Kavan, who is creeping up on a few of Osterman's program records.

In attendance for the title-winning game in Oklahoma City was none other than Texas women's basketball head coach Vic Schaefer, who has rebuilt his program into a National Championship contender.

Of course, the usual suspects made sure to congratulate the team, including Texas's Minister of Culture and super fan, Matthew McConaughey.

Texas Athletic Director Chris Del Conte, who was also in attendance for the showdown, shared his own excitement about the success of his program's softball team.

Even people who aren't fans of the Longhorns had to give the softball team a round of applause, like infamous talking head Skip Bayless, who is a well-known hater of Texas football.

When the Horns get home, there will be yet another celebration of the National Champions, with the University hosting a party at the softball field, for fans of all athletic backgrounds (whether they currently play for the Longhorns or have never suited up in any sport) to attend.

Texas finished the year as National Champions, SEC Tournament Champions, and with a 53-12 overall record, closing out the season on a six-game winning streak.

What a season for the Horns, who were once doubted to make it back to the Women's College World Series, much less win the whole thing.
