Preview: TCU Lady Frogs at Houston Cougars HOUSTON (Interstat) — The eighth-ranked TCU Lady Frogs look to continue their march toward a high seed in the NCAA tournament when they visit the struggling Houston Cougars in a Big 12 Conference women’s basketball game Wednesday night. TCU (23-4, 12-2 Big 12) enters Hofheinz Pavilion riding a three-game winning streak, including a 59-50 defensive victory over West Virginia on Sunday. The Lady Frogs’ potent offense, averaging 76.2 points per game, is led by national player of the year candidate Olivia Miles. The guard is averaging 26.4 points over her last five contests, including a 40-point outburst in a win at Baylor on Feb. 12. Houston (7-18, 2-12) seeks to halt a four-game skid and find momentum in its final home stand. The Cougars are coming off an 85-68 loss at Kansas on Saturday. Guard Briana Peguero, who scored 23 points in that contest, is Houston’s primary offensive threat, averaging 16.3 points in her last three games. The matchup is a stark contrast in trajectories. TCU sits near the top of the conference, while Houston resides near the bottom. The teams met just two weeks ago in Fort Worth, with the Lady Frogs delivering a dominant 90-45 victory. Miles scored 25 points in that contest. For TCU, maintaining focus against a heavy underdog is paramount as it pursues a regular-season conference title. For Houston, the challenge is containing Miles and finding consistent scoring beyond Peguero to avoid a repeat of the prior lopsided defeat. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. CST Wednesday at Hofheinz Pavilion. The game will be broadcast on Big 12 Now on ESPN+.
