GoFrogs: Notes on a Scorecard
BIG 12 CHAMPIONS!
We’re very proud of our men’s tennis program clinching at least a share of its first Big 12 championship with Wednesday night’s 4-0 victory over Baylor! Congratulations to head coach David Roditi, his staff and student-athletes! We’ll go for the outright title when we head to Lubbock this weekend for a Sunday 1 p.m. match at Texas Tech.
NATIONAL RUNNERS-UP!
How about our equestrian program! It truly made history at the National Championships last weekend in Waco. We became the lowest seed (6) to reach the championship match where we battled No. 1 Auburn before dropping an 8-7 decision to finish second nationally. It was the second national runner-up finish in two months for one of our sports as rifle placed second at the NCAA Championships.

STUDENT-ATHLETE SPEAKER SERIES
TCU Athletics is very proud of a new speaker series initiative by our Student-Athlete Development Office. For the inaugural event, we collaborated with the Peace Corps and featured seven international student-athletes from countries with a Peace Corps presence. The student-athletes had an opportunity to talk about their countries and the path that brought them to TCU. They also shared photos from home. The event was held at the Dee J. Kelly Alumni & Visitors Center and was open to the public. The following student-athletes participated in the event:
Seda Arantekin, Women’s Tennis (Turkey)
Sofiko Kadzhaya, Women’s Tennis (Ukraine)
Lamprini Konstantinidou, Volleyball (Greece)
Jerry Lopez, Men’s Tennis (Mexico)

NAME THE MOVIE QUOTE




















































Last Week’s Answer: A very young Kevin Bacon, as Chip Diller in “Animal House,” said to Douglas C. Neidermeyer, “Thank you, sir! May I have another?”
This Week’s Question: “Where’d you get that jacket?”
COMPLIANCE CORNER






















































The athletic trainers at Ocean State University (OSU) would like to have all of the 2015-16 NLI signees undergo the required mandatory medical exams prior to arriving on OSU’s campus for summer school and/or preseason practice.
Can OSU pay the expenses associated with these exams?
Yes with conditions. NCAA Staff Interpretation – 3/23/16 – Staff Interpretation – Expenses Related to Mandatory Medical Examination and Sickle Cell Solubility Test (I) – states that an institution may pay the cost of a mandatory medical exam or sickle cell solubility test for a prospective student-athlete who has signed a National Letter of Intent or the institution’s written offer of admission and/or financial aid or after the institution has received his or her financial deposit in response to its offer of admission.
KEEP IN TOUCH
















































Please let us know if you ever have any questions or concerns regarding our program. This is also your program and we value your feedback. We welcome all calls and emails.
Go Frogs!
