Renewed heights

Following former Texas women's basketball coach Gail Goestenkors resigning in 2012, the program wanted to return to its roots.

To do that, the Longhorns targeted former assistant coach Karen Aston, who was at the school from 1998-2006. Aston became only the fourth coach in Texas women's basketball history.
