The sixth-ranked TCU beach volleyball team will play against No. 3 USC and Palm Beach State on March 17 at the Pompano Beach Pier in Florida.
These matches are part of TCU’s trip to Pompano Beach, with the Horned Frogs scheduled to compete against USC at 8:30 a.m. and Palm Beach State at 9:45 a.m. All courts will be active simultaneously during the event. Live statistics for the match against USC will be available online, and updates can be found on TCU’s social media channels.
TCU enters these contests after winning its first-ever National Championship in 2025, becoming the first program outside of UCLA or USC to claim the title. The Horned Frogs also secured their third consecutive conference crown by winning the inaugural Big 12 Championship last year, joining only two other programs nationally—LMU and Georgia State—in achieving this feat since collegiate beach volleyball began NCAA-sanctioned competition in 2016.
This season, TCU returns four starters from its championship lineup: Sofia Izuzquiza, Anhelina Khmil, Stacy Reeves, and Deniela Konstantinova. The roster has been bolstered by transfers Anna Long from Florida State, Adriana Serrano Ferro from Grand Canyon, and Natalie Glenn from Long Beach State. Head coach Hector Gutierrez is now in his tenth season leading TCU with a career record of 232-83.
The Horned Frogs currently hold a home-winning streak of 63 matches—the longest active streak in the country—and are aiming to avenge a recent narrow loss to USC. The match against Palm Beach State will not count toward TCU’s official record or statistics as PBSC is a junior college.
Big 12 Beach Volleyball has expanded for its second season by adding Florida State, South Carolina, and Boise State, allowing it to meet the minimum requirement for an automatic NCAA Tournament bid. As one of Texas’s earliest varsity beach volleyball programs since starting competition in 2016, TCU continues to build on its rapid rise within collegiate volleyball.
