LAWRENCE, Kan. – Kansas begins conference play on Friday when it hosts the No. 3-ranked TCU Horned Frogs at Hoglund Ballpark for a three-game series. The Jayhawks are in the midst of an eight-game homestand.

Kansas (7-4) completed its first sweep of the season and the first four-game series sweep since 2021 against Texas Southern last weekend. The four-game sweep was the first of the Dan Fitzgerald era and the first since March 19-21, 2021 vs. Creighton. The Jayhawks outscored Texas Southern by a combined score of 41-7 in the four games.

The Jayhawks are ranked in the top five of the Big 12 in several team statistics. KU is third in slugging percentage (.545) and ERA (4.02), fourth in on-base percentage (.430) and home runs (19) and fifth in batting average (.317), doubles (26) and opponent batting average (.245).

TCU (13-0) is coming off a trip to the College World Series last season and the NCBWA currently has them ranked at No. 3. The Horned Frogs are off to their best start in program history having earned wins against a handful of Power Five schools including, No. 20 UCLA, Washington State, Arizona, USC and Arizona State.
