Lady Frogs to host border state rival Sunday

The TCU women’s basketball team will take on the 2007 Mountain West Conference champions, the University of New Mexico Lobos, on Sunday.

Currently the Lady Frogs find themselves in a five-game winning streak after beating the Wyoming Cowgirls on Wednesday, 73-59.

UNM is also coming off a win Wednesday, defeating the San Diego State University Aztecs 63-54.

The Lady Frogs are currently in the No. 2 spot in the Mountain West with a record of 8-2, while UNM rests solely in fifth place.

Sunday’s matchup will be the second time the Lady Frogs and the Lobos have met this season.

In its first meeting, TCU defeated UNM 57-54, ending a six-game road losing streak for the Lady Frogs.

The Lobos are anchored by senior forward Dionne Marsh, who posted her second double-double this season against San Diego State, with 15 points and 11 rebounds, and currently leads the Lobos in scoring with 335 points for the season.

TCU’s senior guard Adrianne Ross, who posted 21 points in Wednesday’s game against Wyoming, leads the Lady Frogs with 330 points so far this season.

In the first matchup with TCU this season, Marsh had 12 points but turned the ball over five times.

Similarly, Ross lead TCU with 18 points against the Lobos, but had eight turnovers in the game.

For Ross and Marsh, this will be the battle of the home states. Ross is from Hobbs, N.M., and Marsh is from Flower Mound, Texas.

Since the Lady Frogs last meeting with the Lobos, in which they earned their first-ever win at the Pit in New Mexico, the team has posted a record of 7-1.

The game will be at 2 p.m. Sunday in Daniel-Meyer Coliseum.
