The Texas Longhorns women's basketball team represents The University of Texas at Austin and competes in the Big 12 Conference.
The team has long been a national power in women's basketball. Under head coach Jody Conradt, the second NCAA Division I basketball coach to win 900 career games (after Tennessee's Pat Summitt), the Longhorns won the 1986 national championship. Conradt retired after the 2006-07 season, and was replaced by Duke head coach Gail Goestenkors.
Since 1977, Texas women's basketball has played its home games in the Frank Erwin Special Events Center, where the team has compiled a 399-76 (.840) record as of March 5, 2008.
