LOVB Austin represents a professional women's indoor volleyball team located in Austin, Texas, competing in the LOVB Pro league that commenced operations in January 2025.
History
The concept of a professional women's volleyball league in the United States was introduced by LOVB in 2021. By December 2023, Austin—known for hosting the Texas Longhorns women's volleyball program—was designated as the sixth franchise city for LOVB. The team's inaugural player signing was Carli Lloyd. The first roster for the 2025 season featured eight former Texas Longhorns athletes, including Madisen Skinner, Logan Eggleston, Asjia O'Neal, Saige Ka'aha'aina-Torres, and Zoe Jarvis. Despite finishing fifth among six teams during the regular season, Austin triumphed in the LOVB Finals, securing a 3-0 victory over LOVB Omaha after rallying from 2-0 deficits in prior playoff matchups.
In June 2025, LOVB Austin became the pioneer franchise within the league to transition to ownership outside of LOVB itself. This change involved acquisition by a consortium led by David Blitzer, Peter Holt through his San Antonio-based company Spurs Sports & Entertainment, and Amy Griffin, who collectively obtained ownership of the team alongside an equity share in LOVB Pro.
