FORT WORTH, Texas - TCU track and field coach Darryl Anderson announced the signing of Matthew Love to a National Letter of Intent on Saturday.
Love, a native of Cleveland, Ohio, is the 15th student-athlete to ink with the Flyin' Frogs for the 2008 season.
"I am excited to have Matthew join the program," Anderson said. "We were in need of another quarter-miler and he was a great fit for us."
