For the first time in program history, the Horned Frogs are the national champs after an epic dual against rival Texas.
It was a fitting end to a season against a rival like no other. It was the ending everyone hoped for last season but did not get. It was an epic dual that came down to a decisive third set on the final court.This one was close like almost every other match between these two schools. After winning the doubles point, TCU won a singles court in straight sets to go up 2-0. Texas, though, would win three straight singles courts to take the lead.

Then on Court Two, Fearnley looked in control in the first set, defeating Micah Braswell 6-4. But Braswell would get the best of him in the next two sets, winning those 6-3, 6-1.
