TCU team news & key performers
TCU is off to a remarkable 8-0 start for the second consecutive season, an achievement that highlights the transformation under head coach Mark Campbell. Before Campbell's tenure, the Horned Frogs had never won more than six games in a row to open a campaign.
Sedona Prince joined Lauren Heard, TCU's all-time leading scorer, as one of only two players in program history to earn Big 12 Player of the Week honours four times in their careers. Prince achieved the historic milestone on Monday following her standout performance against Notre Dame on Friday, where she became the first NCAA player ever to notch 20 points, 20 rebounds, and eight blocks against a ranked opponent.
Prince continues to dominate on the national stage, leading the country in blocks per game (4.3) and ranking fifth in rebounds per game (11.5). She is the sole player in Division I who sits in the top 25 for points, rebounds, and blocks per game. Within the Big 12, Prince leads in rebounding and shot-blocking and is third in total points scored (161).
Meanwhile, Hailey Van Lith has also been a standout, ranking among the best in Division I. She is fifth in total assists (57), sixth in assists per game (7.1), and seventh in assist-to-turnover ratio (3.8). This makes Van Lith the only player in D1 to place in the top 10 across all three categories.
