Texas rolls on.
The top-ranked, top-seeded Longhorns defeated Ohio State 25-18, 21-25, 25-13, 25-21 on Saturday in Austin to advance to the NCAA national semifinals. The Longhorns will play the winner of the later match against Stanford and San Diego.
Texas (26-1) hit .258 and got 20 kills from Logan Eggleston. She had five errors in 44 attacks, hit .341, and had an assist, two aces, nine digs and three blocks. Madisen Skinner had 13 kills, an assist, two digs and a block. Molly Phillips had five kills and six blocks.
Texas held a 16.5-11 blocks advantage.
Ohio State (22-10) hit .137. The Buckeyes got 14 kills from Emily Londot, who had four blocks, and 10 kills from Gabby Gonzales. Rylee Rader had six kills and eight blocks, one solo.
Because the first match between Louisville and Oregon went way longer than the 2-hour time slot the NCAA and ESPN allotted on ESPNU, the match started on ESPN News and ESPN+ only. The Louisville-Oregon match ended at 6:42 p.m. Eastern and was 14-10 Texas in the second set when the match moved to ESPNU.
