FROG FOCUS
TCU has won eight consecutive home matches, its longest streak since 2019 (10 matches). The Horned Frogs have won seven of those eight home matches via sweep, helping them jump out to an impressive 26-2 record in home singles matches and a 42-5 record overall (doubles and singles) on the purple courts.
Senior Aleksa Cveticanin leads the team thus far with 12 overall victories (6-2 singles, 6-4 doubles). She is coming off a perfect 4-0 weekend, including her first-career collegiate double bagel against Stephen F. Austin last week.
Freshman Jade Otway leads the Frogs with seven singles wins this season. She is 7-2 overall in singles play and outscoring her opponents 92-35 on the purple courts, winning 72.4% of games played at home.
SCOUTING THE OPPOSITION
Memphis enters the weekend as the No. 70-ranked squad in the latest ITA poll. The Tigers are 9-4 this season with a road victory over Kansas State and No. 19 Tulsa in their back pocket. The win over Kansas State stands as their only Power 5 win so far this season, they are 1-4 in such matches with losses to Mississippi State, Alabama, Minnesota and Nebraska.
This will be the first time that TCU Head Coach Lee Taylor Walker will be facing Memphis since leaving the program to become the head coach at TCU in the summer of 2014. Walker spent over a decade at Memphis as an assistant coach from 2003-07 and as the head coach from 2007-2014.
TCU is 1-1 all-time against Memphis, with the last match ending in a 4-3 loss for TCU at the hands of Walker and his team in his final season with the Tigers.
