On Wednesday, Longhorns women's basketball made headlines. The talented trio of Madison Booker, Rori Harmon, and Taylor Jones earned All-American honors. During the 2024-2025 regular season, the Longhorns were one of the best teams in the nation, partly due to this talented group.
For Booker, this marks the second straight year she has earned All-American honors. She ranks second on the team in rebounding and has seven double-doubles on the season. The Germantown High School product has been incredibly efficient with the ball in her hands, shooting 45.9 percent from the field. Against ranked opponents, Booker is averaging 20.5 points per game.
Like Booker, this is not the first time Harmon has been an All-American. This is the third as a Longhorn, Harmon has earned the honor. The talented point guard is a semifinalist for the Naismith Defensive Player of the Year Award. This season, she became the first player in Texas women's basketball history to reach 1,200 career points.
Rounding out this exceptional trio is Taylor Jones. This is the first time she has earned All-American honors in her college career. The Texas native has been a force at center, scoring in double figures in 22 games. She has been a human highlight reel on the boards, with 1,065 in her college career.
As Texas looks to make a deep March Madness run, they will need their stars to build on their success. With Booker, Harmon, and Jones leading the way, they are in good hands and will be one of the toughest teams to face in the tournament.
