AUSTIN, Texas – The University of Texas Tower will be lit in burnt orange on Tuesday night to commemorate No. 16 Texas Soccer's 2022 Big 12 Conference regular season championship.

Per tradition, the University recognizes UT sports programs who win a league team title with a burnt orange lighting of the campus landmark.

The 2022 Longhorns left little doubt during their run to the program's first Big 12 Conference regular season championship since 2001 by going unbeaten at 7-0-2 in league action (23 points) to finish ahead of both TCU and Texas Tech by five points. That marked the largest winning margin for a Big 12 soccer champ since West Virginia topped Kansas by seven points back in 2016.
