Preview: West Virginia Visits TCU in Top-10 Big 12 Showdown FORT WORTH, Texas (Interstat) — A pivotal rematch with conference title implications is set for Sunday when the West Virginia women’s basketball team visits the Texas Christian Lady Frogs at Dickies Arena. Scheduled for Feb. 15, 2026, the matchup features two of the Big 12’s hottest teams. West Virginia (21-5) enters on a four-game winning streak, while TCU (22-4) has won five of its last six. The contest is a swift turnaround from their Jan. 14 meeting, a 51-50 road victory for TCU in Morgantown decided by a single point. That result adds a layer of urgency for the Mountaineers, who currently sit just a game behind the Lady Frogs in the loss column within the conference standings. A win would not only avenge the narrow defeat but significantly tighten the race for the regular-season crown. The spotlight will be on a duel of elite guards. West Virginia’s Jordan Harrison has been a model of consistency, scoring in double figures in seven straight games and facilitating the offense with precision. Her backcourt counterpart, TCU’s Olivia Miles, is coming off a spectacular 40-point performance in a win at Baylor on Thursday, showcasing her explosive scoring ability. Both teams are riding high off dominant victories. West Virginia demolished UCF 106-56 on Wednesday, with Riley Makalusky (20 points) and Kierra Wheeler (18 points) providing strong support for Harrison. TCU’s 83-67 win at Baylor was powered by Miles’ career night and a 27-point effort from forward Marta Suárez. The game will be played at Dickies Arena, a neutral-site venue in TCU’s home city, potentially offering a slight edge for the Lady Frogs. The outcome will likely hinge on which star guard can control the tempo and whether either team’s supporting cast can provide a decisive secondary scoring punch. With the postseason landscape beginning to crystallize, Sunday’s clash offers a high-stakes opportunity for both programs to bolster their NCAA tournament seeding and make a definitive statement in one of the nation’s premier conferences.
