The Longhorns came up a bit short at the regional tournament. This brings our 2026 Baseball season to an end.

We are super proud of the improvement this team showed from the beginning of the season to the end. We will miss our seniors and are very thankful for the role models they were in showing us what it means to be a Longhorn.
We look forward to building on this for years to come.

Thank you Longhorn Nation for all the support you have given us!
