The Final Run
If recent trends hold true, the Horned Frogs could be very explosive as the regular season wraps up competition the next two weeks. With only three games remaining in the 2010 regular season, TCU will look to continue its winning ways under head coach
Dan Abdalla during its final push towards postseason play. Since 2008, the Frogs are 3-2-1 in their last three games of the regular season. During that time, the Purple and White have played in two overtimes games, including a double overtime game against UNLV in 2008. Upon further look, the Frogs have posted a 5-5-2 mark in their last three games dating back to 2006, playing in five overtimes.

Offensive Numbers Impressive Late In The Year
With only three games remaining in the 2010 season, TCU has posted some impressive numbers on the offensive end this fall. Upon further look, the Frogs have recorded 317 shots, which currently ranks No. 1 in the Mountain West Conference. During conference play, the Purple and White have blasted 63 shot attempts. Overall, the Frogs have almost surpassed their entire shot total from a year ago. In 2009, TCU recorded 319 shot attempts in 19 games. The Frogs have already passed their entire goal total from year ago, scoring 36 goals compared to 32 in 2009. With 28 assists heading into this weekend, TCU needs only four more assists to post the second-highest assist mark in program history for a season.

What To Watch For This Weekend
When TCU takes on Wyoming and Air Force this weekend, the Frogs will look to better their chances of qualifying for the Mountain West Conference Championship, which will take place in San Diego, Calif. TCU, who has three points in the conference standings heading into this weekend, sits ahead of both Wyoming and Air Force in the conference and could automatically punch their ticket to the conference tournament with victories over both schools. The Mountain West Conference Championship will begin on Nov. 3 at the SDSU Sports Deck.

A Final Look Ahead
Following action this weekend, TCU will return home to face nationally ranked New Mexico next Saturday night. The match against the Lobos will mark the final home game for
Chelsea Cody, Cheryl Martin, Jackie Torda, Kelsey Walters and Nikki Wilbur. The five seniors have combined to win 38 games and have played in three-straight conference tournaments. The contest against New Mexico will also mark the second time this season the Horned Frogs will play in front of a television audience. The final home game will be shown on tape-delay on The Mtn.

Horned Frogs In NCAA Statistics
With only three games left in the 2010 season, TCU has fared well amongst the national leaders in scoring offense. As a team, TCU currently ranks No. 33 overall in scoring offense.
