The Texas Longhorns’ impressive season is over. The program will see off some of its talented seniors who made an incredible run in the 2025-26 season, earning the top spot. One such name who made the most impact was point guard Rori Harmon.
The player came from a devastating injury and became one of the most impactful stars in the lineup. During her final home game, Harmon called her ACL surgeon her hero in an emotional moment at the Moody Center. He asked for the deep run in the championship, and she delivered more than that.

Rori Harmon Surpasses Caitlin Clark, Paige Bueckers, and A’ja Wilson
Just like the WNBA, NCAAW careers are of immense importance, shaping players’ futures. Caitlin Clark, A’ja Wilson, and Paige Bueckers made their mark in the NCAA tournaments with their individual records and dominant gameplay. The NCAA also regularly used the megastars for promotional activities, given their popularity. Recently, Clark featured alongside Magic Johnson and Charles Barkley in the advertisement.
But the 23-year-old Longhorns’ star surpassed all those big-name players with her all-around performance. She finished her season with 1,616 points, 977 assists, 659 rebounds, and 388 steals, making her the first player to complete at least 1,500 points, 900 assists, 600 rebounds, and 350 steals.
Playing for the Longhorns, the senior guard averaged 10.3 points, 4.2 rebounds, 6.2 assists, and 2.5 steals per game over the course of her five seasons.

The feat not only highlights her overall impact in the game but also the capability of a guard who strives for greatness. Sadly, there are not many individual accolades in Harmon’s name, and coach Vic Schaefer points out the ‘shameful mistake’ in his press conference.

The accolades and accomplishments do give players encouragement and put them in the spotlight. While the Houston-born star earned Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year in 2023 and Big 12 freshman of the Year accolade in 2022, there are not many national accolades in her name. Coach Schaefer was furious about the similar fact.
“I want you guys to understand something. I want everybody in the room to write this down. This is a crying shame, so you hear me good. Rori Harmon has scored 1,616 points, 977 assists, 659 rebounds, and 388 steals, and not one agency has ever voted her All-American,” Schaefer said in the press conference.
While the 2026 WNBA mock draft puts her as a second-round pick, the franchise would change its mind after understanding the impact of the star.
