Hook ’em, Horns. Texas brings a senior leader with a national championship pedigree, a summer national champion and a regional finalist into the new season. Get ready to wear the burnt orange and white.
The Club
The Texas Longhorns are Austin’s men’s tennis team — a burnt-orange-and-white program that plays out of Austin, Texas, and carries one of college sports’ most famous calls: HOOK ’EM. The university opened in 1883, and the tennis program has built its modern identity on national-championship runs and ITA honors in the SEC. Searching for the Texas roster, the Texas schedule or Texas tickets for the season ahead? This is the place to start — and the burnt-orange-and-white kit is the way to wear it.

Last Season: Summer and Fall Honors
Texas’s recent story was written in the summer and fall of 2025 — and all three trio members wrote chapters. Senior leader Sebastian Gorzny reached the ITA All-Americans singles round of 16 and the doubles quarterfinals with Lucas Brown, then reached the NCAA Singles Championship round of 32. Junior Lucas Brown won the ITA Summer Nationals singles title and joined Gorzny in that All-Americans doubles quarterfinal run. And sophomore Sebastian Eriksson reached the ITA Texas Regional singles final. Those are the verified results — summer and fall 2025 play, no more and no less — and they show a lineup with national-level form at every level. The heritage strip says it in one line: AUSTIN, TEXAS • EST. 1883 • BUILT TO WIN. The 1883 date is the year the university opened — and the last three words are the Longhorn standard.
Best Players Right Now
Sebastian Gorzny, Senior Leader — The headliner. Gorzny reached the ITA All-Americans singles round of 16 and the doubles quarterfinals with Lucas Brown, then the NCAA Singles Championship round of 32. He is the experienced head Texas builds its lineup around — the senior who has already proven he belongs in national fields.
Lucas Brown, Summer Nationals Champion — The junior with the title. Brown won the ITA Summer Nationals singles title and reached the ITA All-Americans doubles quarterfinals with Gorzny. A summer national title is the kind of result that announces a player — and Brown announced himself in style.
Sebastian Eriksson, Regional Finalist — The rising sophomore. Eriksson reached the ITA Texas Regional singles final, a run that marks him as one of the region’s players to watch. Sophomores who reach regional finals do not stay under the radar for long.
Star Spotlight: Stories You Should Know
The senior who has seen the national stage. Sebastian Gorzny’s All-Americans and NCAA runs are the resume of a player who does not need an introduction to big matches. Texas leans on seniors like Gorzny when the dual season gets tight — and it always gets tight.
A summer title, earned the hard way. Lucas Brown’s ITA Summer Nationals singles crown is a genuine national title, won outside the team season. Players who win in the summer carry that confidence straight into the fall — and Brown did exactly that alongside Gorzny in doubles.
The sophomore on the rise. Sebastian Eriksson’s Texas Regional singles final run is the early warning sign: a young player already reaching finals in a deep region. Texas’s future at the top of the lineup may already be on the roster.

This Season: Burnt Orange Ambitions
This season is about turning summer and fall form into team results. Texas enters 2026–27 led by senior Sebastian Gorzny at the top of the lineup, summer national champion Lucas Brown starring in singles and doubles, and rising sophomore Sebastian Eriksson pushing up the order. The fall ITA circuit is where individual rankings and NCAA berths are earned — ground all three have already covered — and the spring dual season is where SEC weekends decide seasons. The Longhorns’ formula is clear: ride Gorzny’s experience, let Brown’s winning form spread through the lineup, and let Eriksson keep climbing. In the SEC, that formula travels.
Mark Your Calendar: The Road Ahead
No confirmed 2026–27 fixtures for Texas have been published at the time of writing. The shape of the season is familiar, and it is worth watching for:
- Fall ITA circuit — individual rankings and NCAA berths on the line: The fall events decide rankings and NCAA championship paths, where Gorzny, Brown and Eriksson all starred in 2025.
- Spring dual season — the SEC weekends: The spring schedule is where the Longhorns’ season will be decided, one conference weekend at a time.
When Texas publishes its full 2026–27 schedule, this guide will be updated with every Longhorns date.
Biggest Rivalries — The Wars
1. Texas A&M — the Lone Star Showdown. The rivalry that defines Texas college sports, renewed on the tennis court. When the Longhorns and the Aggies meet, the whole state watches — and no result is needed to explain why this one matters most. No result is claimed here; the Showdown speaks for itself.
2. Baylor and TCU — the Texas triangle. Two in-state programs with national tennis pedigree, both regular measuring sticks for Texas. The battle for the state usually runs through these three programs.
3. The SEC field — the weekly war. Georgia, Florida, Tennessee and the rest of the conference all bring ranked lineups. Texas’s season will be written one conference weekend at a time.

Those summer and fall 2025 runs are the resume of a player who does not need an introduction to big matches — and the reason Texas trusts him at the top of the lineup.
When the Longhorns need a point at the top court, Gorzny is the first name on the card — and the reason Texas believes this season can climb.
