TCU's Dominant Regular Season

The Horned Frogs finished their regular season with a perfect home record, going 19-0 at Schollmaier Arena, an achievement that has only happened once before in their 48-year history. Their dominance at home has helped them extend a 22-game home winning streak, the longest in the Big 12 Conference 【8】.

Key Performances & Players

• Hailey Van Lith, a Lieberman Award finalist, has been a key player, consistently delivering high-scoring performances and leading the team in assists. She scored 20 points in the first half during a dominant win over Houston, shooting 7-9 from the field 【8】.

• Madison Conner has been lethal from three-point range, knocking down an NCAA-leading 106 three-pointers this season. She is on pace to break the Big 12 single-season record for most three-pointers 【8】.

• Sedona Prince has been a force in the paint, nearly averaging a double-double with consistent scoring and rebounding efforts 【8】.

TCU also achieved several milestones this season:
✅ 700th all-time program win

NCAA Tournament Hopes

After advancing to the second round of the NCAA Tournament last season, TCU is poised for an even deeper run this year. Their strong defensive schemes, elite shooting, and depth make them a serious contender to reach the later rounds in March Madness 【10】.

Key Factors for Success

🏀 Perimeter shooting – Conner and Van Lith must continue their hot streak from deep.
🏀 Defensive consistency – TCU must shut down elite guards like West Virginia’s JJ Quinerly to progress.
🏀 Experience & leadership – Veteran players like Prince, Van Lith, and Conner need to lead the charge in high-pressure moments.
