TCU enters women's Big 12 tournament as No. 1 seed seeking repeat title

TCU is the No. 1 seed at the women's Big 12 tournament in Kansas City and will begin play in the quarterfinals after receiving a double-bye; the Horned Frogs are 27-4 and won the conference tournament last year.

TCU arrives in Kansas City as the No. 1 seed for the women's Big 12 tournament. The top four seeds receive double-byes, so the Horned Frogs will not play until the quarterfinals on Friday at the T-Mobile Center. TCU won the conference tournament last season, ending a 20-year gap since its previous league tournament title while in Conference USA. Coach Mark Campbell said the tournament resets records and that each game carries a win-or-go-home feel. Key details: - TCU is 27-4 and riding a six-game winning streak. - The Horned Frogs won last season's Big 12 tournament, beating Colorado, West Virginia and Baylor in close games en route to the title. - Top four seeds — TCU, West Virginia, Baylor and Oklahoma State — receive double-byes into the quarterfinals. - TCU's losses this season include an overtime defeat to Utah and three regulation losses (to Ohio State, Texas Tech and Colorado) by a combined five points. - First-round games begin Wednesday at the T-Mobile Center; TCU's first scheduled game is in the quarterfinals on Friday. Summary: TCU's top seed shortens its tournament path but every game is single elimination and can be tightly contested. The Horned Frogs will play their first game Friday in the quarterfinals at the T-Mobile Center. A potential rematch with Baylor would not occur until the championship game if both teams advance.
