The Horned Frogs look to stay unbeaten at home as Olivia Miles and Marta Suarez lead a showdown with rival Baylor.
FORT WORTH - No. 11 TCU women’s basketball closes the regular season Sunday with a marquee Big 12 matchup against No. 18 Baylor at Schollmaier Arena, and the stakes and spotlight couldn’t be bigger.
Tipoff is set for 3 p.m. CT in Fort Worth, just hours after ESPN College GameDay broadcasts live from the arena for the first time in program history.
The Horned Frogs (26-4, 14-3 Big 12) have already secured the No. 1 seed in next week’s conference tournament, but Sunday’s rivalry clash offers another opportunity to sharpen their edge heading into March.
TCU enters riding a dominant stretch, including an 83-67 win over Baylor in Waco less than three weeks ago. In that game, Olivia Miles erupted for 40 points - including 10 3-pointers - while Marta Suarez added 27.
The duo combined for 67 points, overwhelming the Bears and igniting TCU’s late-season surge.
Miles continues to anchor the offense, averaging 20.1 points per game while also contributing over six rebounds and six assists per night - a stat line unmatched nationally.
Suarez, averaging 17 points per contest, forms one of the highest-scoring tandems in Division I. Together, they are among a handful of teammate duos nationwide both averaging at least 17 points per game.
The perimeter has been TCU’s calling card. Over the past three seasons, the Horned Frogs rank near the top nationally in total 3-pointers made, and this year they are the only team in the country with three players - Miles, Suarez and Donovyn Hunter - each surpassing 55 made 3s.
Defensively, TCU has turned Schollmaier Arena into a fortress.
The Horned Frogs have not lost at home since February 2024 and are allowing just 54.1 points per game in Fort Worth during the Mark Campbell era.
Nine opponents this season have been held to 50 points or fewer on TCU’s home floor.
Baylor (24-6, 13-4 Big 12) brings its own firepower and postseason aspirations, making this one of the most compelling regular-season finales in the conference.
For TCU, Sunday is about momentum, rivalry pride and protecting home court ... all before the madness of March begins.
