FDU women's historic basketball season ends with loss to TCU in NCAA Tournament opener
The best season in Fairleigh Dickinson women's basketball history came to an end Friday, and with it went the nation's third longest win streak. FDU closed out its historic campaign with a 73-51 loss to No. 2-seeded TCU in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament at the Birmingham 3 Regional at Schollmaier Arena in Fort Worth, Texas. Advertisement FDU, the Northeast Conference champions, finished with a 29-4 record, the most wins in program history. TCU (32-3) won its 11th straight game and will advance to the second round, where it will face the winner of Friday's No. 7 Louisville vs. No. 10 Nebraska opening-round matchup. The win was the Horned Frogs' first NCAA Tournament victory in 19 years. The No. 15-seeded Knights, playing in their first NCAA Tournament in program history, got off to a promising start Friday when they closed out the first period with a 17-14 lead. Despite shooting 2-of-9 to open the game, FDU went 6-of-7 the rest of the quarter with Teneisia Brown (18 points, four rebounds) shooting 4-of-5 from the field for eight points. But the Horned Frogs picked up the pace in the second, outscoring the Knights, 21-10, in the period. Madison Conner had 13 points in the first half, while FDU missed 7-of-8 shots in the quarter. Conner finished with a game-high 23 points and teammate Sedona Prince netted 13 points. Advertisement The host team kept up the pressure to start the second half, building a double-digit lead early in the third quarter. TCU went on a 9-2 run over the last four minutes of the quarter to take a commanding 52-35 lead. FDU saw its school-record 22-game win streak come to a halt since dropping an 83-58 contest to Rutgers on Dec. 11 in Piscataway. Earlier this month FDU clinched the NEC regular-season title, finishing 16-0 in conference play. They're the first NEC team to finish with a perfect record since Quinnipiac went undefeated in 2012-13. Coach Stephanie Gaitley, who took over in Teaneck prior to the 2023-24 season, guided her fourth team to "The Big Dance." Previously, she led Richmond, Saint Joseph's and Fordham, to the NCAA Tournament. This article originally appeared on FDU women's basketball team loses to TCU in NCAA Tournament first round

Why is ESPN's Carolyn Peck jumping on the TCU women's basketball bandwagon?
Add former college coach Carolyn Peck, now a ESPN analyst, to the TCU women's basketball bandwagon. On Sunday night during ESPN's Women's Bracketology show, she said that the Horned Frogs have opportunity of the No. 2 tournament seeds to advance to the Final Four in Tampa, Fla., in early April. 'I think TCU and I think so because of the diversity of their ability to score the basketball,' Peck said. 'They have Sedona Prince inside who is a matchup nightmare because she doesn't stay inside. She can step outside and she can shoot it. And ever since they moved Donovan Hunter into the starting lineup, that's been an extra punch power and especially on the defensive end.' 'And can we talk about Madison Conner? Madison Conner has made a 118 three-point three this season. So they have a big three to work with. And I haven't even talked about Hailey Van Lith.' Prince, Conner and Van Lith were all Big 12 all-conference players. Lith was the conference's regular-season Player of the Year and the conference tournament's most outstanding player. TCU opens the NCAA tournament on Friday at home against 15th-seeded Fairleigh Dickinson. If the Horned Frogs win, they will face either Nebraska or Louisville on Sunday.
