TCU Notables
TCU wrapped up the last few weeks on the road in nonconference matches by traveling to Lubbock to face then-No. 23 Texas Tech. The match came down to the top court and a third set tiebreaker which the Red Raiders were able to come away with to get the 4-3 victory.

Fellow freshman Kate Paulus is also picking up the singles wins in dual matches with Paulus boasting seven. In doubles, Aleksa Cveticanin and Ellie Douglas entered the Oracle/ITA poll at No. 41 as the duo are 4-1 on the season with one win over a ranked opponent. Chloe Hule and Stevie Kennedy are pairing up for a team best six wins with victories in two of the last three matches played.
Scouting the Bears
Baylor is ranked No. 50 in the Oracle/ITA rankings but looking to snap a nine-match losing streak. The Bears went 5-1 to start the season but have dropped the last nine as numerous players have been inactive with injuries. Baylor has two ranked players in the singles poll as No. 59 Livia Kraus leads the way with 14 wins, seven victories at the No. 1 spot and two wins over ranked opponents. No. 121 Jessica Hinojosa has 13 victories so far in 2019 with eight wins at the No. 2 spot in the lineup.
All-Time Series
Thursday's match will be the 38th meeting all-time between TCU and Baylor with the Bears holding the slight advantage at 19-18 in the all-time series. Baylor has won 13 of the last 14 matches played dating back to 2005 with TCU's last victory coming in March 2013 in the teams' first meeting as conference opponents.
