They got spanked today at TCU 7-0. TCU is #20 in the country.

Big Difference between playing JUCO's and D1 schools.

Hope they can get back track quickly.

TCU has an excellent chance of being the top womens team in Texas this year. That went to A&M last year.

Yeah TCU looks amazing, they got the #5 player from Stanford to transfer in plus the #3 girl from D2.

There new coach can just flat-out recruit.

UNT seems to be getting better but only time will tell.

Mean Green Tennis Falls At No. 20 TCU

FORT WORTH (2/9/05) -- The No. 20 TCU Horned Frogs (2-0) pinned the North Texas women’s tennis team (4-1) with its first setback of the season Wednesday, defeating the Mean Green 7-0 at the Bayard H. Friedman Center.

The Mean Green started the season with a 4-0 record for the first time since 2001-02 and is now 4-1 for the third consecutive year under head coach Dawna Prevette.

While TCU swept all three doubles matches, the Mean Green fell by no more than three points in two different flights. The Horned Frogs were led by two players ranked among the top 25 in the nation and one doubles team ranked among the top 50.

"I think it’s a great experience (to play against a top 25 team)," said Prevette. "We need to play some of those teams and grow from it. We played tough overall as a team. We weren’t intimidated and I was impressed with how we fought."

NT’s Kelli Royer played No. 25 Helena Besovic tough in flight two, but fell by scores of 6-3 and 6-4.

North Texas continues a five-match road swing this week with two matches in Fayetteville, Ark., against Southwest Missouri State and No. 53 Arkansas. The Mean Green plays SMS Saturday at 2 p.m. and Arkansas Sunday at 10 a.m.
