AUSTIN, Texas — Teya Sidberry (TAY-UH) has signed an Athletic Scholarship Agreement (ASA) to play basketball next season at The University of Texas, head coach Vic Schaefer announced on Monday.

"I'm excited to add another Gatorade Player of the Year from the state of Utah in Teya Sidberry who comes to us from Boston College," Texas head coach Vic Schaefer said. "She still holds the high school career points record in Utah. Teya will add tremendous athleticism and size to our program. She has proven to be a scorer at all three levels. When addressing our needs we really felt Teya could bring grittiness, a knack for rebounding and an ability to finish and score in multiple ways. Teya comes from an amazing family. Her spirit and smile are infectious and Longhorn Nation will love her. She wants to win and will be a great teammate. She will have an immediate impact on our program. She is another great competitor we've been able to add to our program."
