The Erwin Center: “House of Horrors” for Texas Women’s Basketball Opponents

The No. 5 ranked Texas women's basketball team, off to a 7-1 start this season, have given the Longhorn faithful at the Frank Erwin Center plenty to cheer about over the years. Entering their Dec. 14th home contest against North Texas, the Longhorns continued a 22-game home-court win streak - the sixth longest current homecourt win streak in the nation.

Season after season, fans at the Erwin Center have seen Texas win an astounding 87 percent of its games at home! In fact, the Erwin Center is the THIRD-TOUGHEST arena in the nation (based on UT's home winning percentage) for an opposing team to win at!

Last year, Texas picked up its first-ever Big 12 regular season and tournament championships and made the program's fourth trip to the prestigious Final Four. Right now, the Longhorns are in search of two more Big 12 titles and another trip to the NCAA "Big Dance", and your support in the Erwin Center can help them get there!

In 2003, Texas went a perfect 15-0 at home; to date, the Horns are 2-0 at the Erwin Center this season. Take a look at the schedule below and come watch the VERY BEST in women's basketball compete in Austin this winter!
