Texas Longhorns women's basketball game vs. Baylor now set for early February

With the schedule change, the Horns will now face the Bears twice in three days.

AUSTIN, Texas — The Texas Longhorns women's basketball team's game against the Baylor Bears has officially been rescheduled. 

The 'Horns will now play the Bears in Waco on Friday, Feb. 4, with a start time still to be determined.

The game was originally set for Jan. 9 against the Baylor Bears and was postponed, according to the Big 12 Conference. UT officials previously said the postponement stems from COVID-19 health and safety protocols within the Baylor program. 

The 'Horns are scheduled to face the Bears again on Sunday, Feb. 6, in Austin.

The postponement comes after the Longhorns just had their game against Alcorn State in late December canceled due to COVID-19. The Longhorns have played one game since that cancellation – a 62-51 win over Oklahoma State – and have a game scheduled against Texas Tech on Jan. 5. 

The next game after UT plays Tech will be on Jan. 12 against the Kansas Jayhawks. The game will air at 7 p.m. on the Longhorn Network.
