The University of Texas will retire the No. 33 jersey of Kamie Ethridge in a halftime ceremony during the home football game against LSU on Saturday, Sept. 7 at Darrell K Royal Texas Memorial Stadium. The 1986 National Player of the Year, Ethridge will become the first female student-athlete at The University of Texas to have her jersey retired.
A Lubbock, Texas, native, Ethridge starred for the Longhorns from 1982-83 to 1985-86. As the team's starting point guard, she led her 1986 Texas team to the NCAA Championship and a 34-0 record, marking the first undefeated season in women's college basketball.
