While the TCU academic year may have ended with Saturday’s Commencement ceremonies, there’s still business on the baseball diamond.

This is the third year of the Kirk Saarloos head coaching era, and the first two years have seen incredible postseason success. In 2022, the Horned Frogs made the Regional Final of the College Station Super Regional, ultimately losing to Texas A&M. Last year, they reached the semifinals of the College World Series, losing to the University of Florida Gators.

This year, TCU Baseball has a 30-17 record overall and 13-14 record in the Big 12. Good news: All of their remaining games are at home, including Big 12 battles with Baylor University and West Virginia University. The Big 12 Baseball Tournament starts on Tuesday, May 21. As of now, the Horned Frogs would open with a game against the University of Kansas Jayhawks.
