When the 2024-25 season began, the TCU Women's Basketball team was unranked in the pre-season polls and was predicted to finish fourth in the Big 12.

The team went on to win the Big 12 regular season and tournament titles before making a deep run in the postseason, which included an appearance in the Elite Eight. The Horned Frogs finished with the best record in program history, 34-4.

This week, the final AP Top 25 and Coaches Polls were released. TCU finished at No. 6, a ranking they had after the conference tournaments and the highest ranking in program history. TCU finished behind the Final Four teams - UConn, South Carolina, UCLA, and Texas - and USC, the only No. 1 seed not to make the Final Four.
