No. 20 Horned Frogs set to open their spring season Monday
FORT WORTH -- The No. 20 TCU women's golf team opens its spring season Monday when it begins play at the ICON Invitational in Humble, Texas.
The Horned Frogs will look to continue the momentum from a record-breaking fall campaign that saw them set multiple school marks for single round and tournament scores. TCU finished with a pair of top-three results and a 284.0 team stroke average that's on pace to set another program best.
The Event
TCU is playing in the ICON Invitational for the sixth consecutive spring. This tournament will take place for a second straight year at the par 72, 6,342-yard Golf Club of Houston. Thirty-six holes will be played Monday with 18 Tuesday. Both days will feature an 8 a.m. shotgun start.
The Horned Frogs were fourth in a loaded field at last year's ICON Invitational. Their 3-under 861 was the fifth-best, at the time, 54-hole score in program history. Sabrina Iqbal led TCU with a 15th-place finish at 2-under 214.

Quote of the Day
"We can't wait to get our spring season started," TCU Head Women's Golf Coach Angie Ravaioli-Larkin said. "We have accomplished so much during the offseason and taken advantage of our practices and team advancement with driven leadership."
The Lineup
TCU's lineup will feature Caitlyn Macnab, Sabrina Iqbal, Lois Lau, Valeria Pacheco and Caroline Jordaan.
A freshman from Johannesburg, South Africa, Macnab played in all four fall tournaments and placed second on the team with a 71.3 stroke average. In just her third collegiate tournament, she set a TCU record for 54-hole score with a 13-under 203 to finish second at the Jim West Challenge.
Iqbal is ranked eighth nationally by Golfstat. Her team-best 69.6 fall stroke average included seven sub-70 scores in 12 rounds. She finished in the top 11 in all four events. For her TCU career, the San Jose, Calif., native has 15 top-10 results in 33 tournaments.
Lau has played in all but one tournament over her two seasons. She had a 73.1 stroke average in the fall with a tie for seventh at the Jim West Challenge.
In her first year at TCU after transferring from Denver, Jordaan played in all four fall tournaments with a 74.1 mark.
Pacheco joins Iqbal as the lone seniors for TCU. Pacheco has a career-best 72.5 stroke average this season, 2.2 shots better than her mark of 74.7 from last year which was then a career low.
