TCU women's basketball is set to land in Toronto, Ontario, for a pair of exhibition contests scheduled between August 10 and 15, marking the program’s first North American tour stop in three years. The last foreign tour took the Horned Frogs to Costa Rica in August 2023, a trip that offered valuable practice and bonding time before the 2024‑25 season.
A Strategic Stop in Toronto
Under head coach Mark Campbell, the Horned Frogs return a core that helped them finish 32‑6 and climb to No. 6 in the national polls, a run that cemented their status as the only repeat Power Conference champion and one of six teams with back‑to‑back Elite Eight appearances. The roster blends returning standouts such as sophomore Clara Bielefeld and senior Sarah Portlock with newcomers including transfer point guard Jadyn Wooten, ACC rebounding record‑holder Lara Somfai, and ACC All‑Freshman honoree Lanie Grant.
Six transfer athletes from ESPN’s top‑50 recruiting list join the mix, headlined by All‑Big 12 point guard Jadyn Wooten and the aforementioned Somfai, adding depth and versatility as the team prepares for the upcoming season. The squad also welcomes three first‑year international players — Claudia Contell from Spain, Jessie‑May Hall from Australia, and Laura Vilcinskas from Belgium — while veteran MVP of the FIBA U20 EuroBasket, Clara Silva, returns to the lineup.
The Toronto stop serves as both a competitive test and a bonding opportunity, giving the group a chance to gel on and off the court before the 2026‑27 campaign, where season ticket deposits remain open through the TCU Ticket Office and GoFrogs.com/Tickets. The program enters the new season as the only repeat undisputed Power Conference champion and among a select group with consecutive Elite Eight appearances.
