The Horned Frogs have seen both squads plenty over recent time. TCU has seen the Wildcats most recently at the Big 12 Championship, while the Frogs dealings with SMU were also plentiful during last year’s regular season.
The men’s side went up against SMU in Fort Worth during the fall slate, where TCU defeated SMU, 168.5-131.5. The women’s squad faced the Mustangs in a dual meet last season as well, with SMU earning a narrow victory.
There were multiple standouts for TCU the last time out against Texas A&M, as both squads showed some bright spots against the Aggies. Overall, seven new top-10 times were set, and one program record was broken by Avery Dillon in the 1000 free.
Suchanski was the top point scorer for TCU on the men’s side in the dual against Texas A&M, winning the 200 backstroke with a time of 1:43.52. He also placed third in the 100 back (48.50), contributed a 23.22 split on the fourth-place 200 medley relay (1:30.27), and set a new personal best in the 200 freestyle (1:37.99).

SMU taking on solid competition just a week after M/W went against Texas A&M.
Shouldn’t that be Arizona hits the road to face off against SMU and TCU in Dallas? Arizona is two states over. TCU just has to drive 25 minutes down I30.
