Kansas-TCU women at a glance

Who: Kansas at TCU

When: 7 p.m. Tuesday

Where: University Recreation Center, in Fort Worth, Texas

Series: Kansas leads, 4-3

Rematch

Kansas knows first-hand how difficult it can be to win against TCU. The Horned Frogs handled KU, 80-63, a month ago at Allen Fieldhouse.

While TCU (fifth place) is having a better Big 12 season than the Jayhawks (10th), the Frogs aren’t unbeatable by any means. In fact, they’ve lost three of their last four games, with all three setbacks coming on the road — at West Virginia, Kansas State and Oklahoma.

TCU is 11-3 at home this season, though, and the Jayhawks are just 2-7 away from the fieldhouse. A loss tonight would drop KU below .500 for the first time this season.

Streaking

Jayhawks senior forward Chelsea Gardner has scored 16 or more points in each of her past four games. She is averaging 17.8 points and 8.5 rebounds in that span, while making 30 of 55 shots (55 percent). KU’s top post player also has blocked 3.5 shots a game in her last four starts.

Slumping

While Gardner has played at or near her potential of late, Kansas has lost three straight games and four of its last five, leaving the Jayhawks at the bottom of the Big 12 standings with just four games left in the regular season.

In their losing skid, the Jayhawks have shot 41.6 percent from the floor and made just 18 of 61 three-pointers (29.5 percent). Plus, they’ve been out-rebounded by an average of 9.5 boards a game.
