Texas women’s basketball coach Karen Aston will not return as head coach after eight seasons with the program. Aston’s contract expires on Aug. 31, 2020.
“This was an extremely difficult decision as Coach Aston’s contract was up and we put a great deal of thought into it, but decided not to extend it,” said Texas athletic director Chris Del Conte in a statement. “We recognize the challenge of making a change in this particular springtime, but there is never a right time for a difficult decision like this.”
