Texas A&M is a finalist to land elite 2026 4-star SF out of Corpus Christi (TX)
Texas A&M's basketball program is under new management, as the 2025-2026 season will feature head coach Bucky McMillan leading the Aggies. This marks a drastic change from the last three seasons under Buzz Williams, as the program's all-time leading scorer, Wade Taylor IV, has also departed. However, change was needed after six seasons with Williams at the helm, who, while producing three consecutive NCAA Tournament teams, never advanced past the Round of 32. In contrast, Texas A&M has never advanced past the Sweet 16 throughout the NCAA Tournament's existence. This offseason, returning just one player in redshirt freshman forward Chris McDermott, McMillan added 12 players from the transfer portal, including veteran guard Pop Isaacs and former Indiana forward Mackenzie Mgbako. While McMillan is looking to add two more players to reach the 15-player threshold, this roster is talented enough to compete for a postseason bid. On the recruiting trail, McMillan has yet to land a 2026 commit, but is now a finalist for one of the top small forward prospects in the cycle, as four-star Billy White III, who also included Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, Kansas, TCU, Stanford, Maryland, LSU, Virginia, and SMU in his top 10 program list. During his 2024-2025 junior season at Veterans Memorial in Corpus Christi (TX), White averaged 18.8 points, 9.4 rebounds, and 2.7 assists per game, while leading his team to a 39-1 record. His shooting ability, combined with impressive defense and rebounding makes him a borderline five-star prospect with an extremely high ceiling. While he has official visits lined up with six of his ten finalists, it's a positive development that Texas A&M is still on his radar heading into the fall. According to 247Sports, White is currently positioned as the 33rd-ranked prospect in the cycle, the 14th-ranked small forward, and the 4th-ranked prospect in Texas.

Houston's Maelynn Kim wins 2025 Women's Western Amateur in thrilling championship match
It came down to the 18th hole, but Maelynn Kim has the biggest victory of her life. A rising junior at Houston, Kim won the 2025 Women's Western Amateur on Saturday, defeating incoming Vanderbilt freshman Elizabeth Rudisill 1 up at Red Run Golf Club in Royal Oak, Michigan. Kim held off a late charge from Rudisill, who was 3 down with three holes to play, but fought back to get the match to the 18th hole. Kim's win may be viewed as an upset, considering she finished her sophomore year as the 220th-ranked collegiate golfer, having only one top-10 finish in 11 stroke-play events. But she was clutch at the 125th Women's Western Am, including winning her Round of 32 match on the 22nd hole against Wake Forest's Macy Pate. Then she beat first-team All-American Kary Hollenbaugh in the Round of 16 before topping Elise Lee, who was on the national champion Northwestern team before transferring to USC this summer, in the quarterfinals. In the championship match, Kim went 1 up on the third hole and never lost the lead. Kim holed out for eagle on the par-5 ninth to take a 2-up lead at the turn. She was three up with three to play, but Rudisill fought back, winning Nos. 16 and 17 to take the match to the 18th hole after Kim made consecutive bogeys. That's where Kim responded, tying the closing 18th with a par to earn the Women's Western Am title. The Women's Western Amateur is the fourth event of five in the Women's Elite Amateur Golf Series. The final championship is the 95th LNGA Amateur Championship, set for July 22-24 at The Home Course in Dupont, Washington.
