FROG FOCUS
The Horned Frogs enter the conference tournament after polishing off the greatest regular season in the program's seven-year history. TCU set program records in total wins (23), wins over ranked opponents (nine) and home victories (12). This was the first time TCU has finished a season unbeaten at home, 12-0, with six of those victories coming against conference opponents.
Â
The top pairing of Daniela Alvarez and Tania Moreno Mateeva were named to both the 2021 CCSA All-Conference team and the All-Freshman team, marking the first time a Horned Frog duo has received all-conference honors. They finished their freshmen seasons with a 24-4 record together at the No. 1 position, the winningest season by any Horned Frog pairing in program history.
Â
As a team, TCU went 101-42 in all matches, the highest winning percentage and the first triple-digit win total in program history.
Â
Hailey Brockett set a program record for most career wins, 21, when she and her partner Olivia Blackburn beat FSU No. 2 pairing McBain/Chacon last weekend. Brockett surpassed old teammate and partner Avery Arellano at 20 wins to set the new program record.
Â
TCU won 16 of 20 total matches against CCSA opponents, with all four losses coming to Florida State. Alvarez/Moreno and Brockett/Blackburn lead the team with 16-3 records in conference duals. The No. 3 pairing, Rochelle Scott and Maria Gonzalez are close behind with a 13-4 record. Between the three top pairs, TCU boasts a 48-12 record in conference meetings.
Â
This will be the second-ever appearance by the Horned Frogs at the CCSA tournament. They went 2-2 in their first appearance back in 2019.
Â
SCOUTING THE OPPOSITION
The Horned Frogs have played three of the other seven schools in the aqua bracket, to the tune of a 5-4 record. TCU has beaten Tulane three times over the last two months and South Carolina twice besides four losses to the top-seeded FSU. TCU is the No. 3 seed in this year's tournament, the highest seed ever received.
Â
No. 7 TCU is one of four teams ranked in the national Top 20 in the aqua bracket, joining No. 3 LSU, No. 4 Florida State and No. 16 South Carolina.
