TCU Volleyball Dominates Texas Tech on Senior Night
A common theme for No. 22 TCU has been their complete dominance on their home floor this season. The Horned Frogs finished the year 14-1 at Schollmaier Arena. On Friday night, in front of over 3,000 fans, TCU swept Texas Tech (25-14, 26-24, 25-11).
The four seniors honored by TCU were Melanie Parra, Cecily Bramschreiber, Stephanie Young and Ashlyn Bourland. All four players found ways to contribute as Parra finished with 14 kills and seven digs. Bramschreiber filled up the stat sheet with four kills, four aces and seven digs. Both Young and Bourland got an ace.
Both teams traded points in the early going, but Bramschreiber sparked a 7-2 run to give the Frogs a 16-9 lead. TCU hit .417 in the first set and dominated the first set capped off by a Becca Kelley ace.
In set two, Texas Tech made things much closer jumping out to a 8-5 lead. A 4-0 run from TCU put them back in front. This set included multiple runs and it was Tech that got it to set point leading 24-22. TCU was able to end the set on a 4-0 run courtesy of kills from Jalyn Gibson and Parra paired with aces from Bramschreiber.
Trying to keeps things alive, TCU wasn’t met with much resistance from the Red Raiders in the third set. The Frogs kept up the pressure with multiple runs to build a massive 17-8 lead. Bourland picked up her first career ace and an attack error ended things.
It was a fun night for the seniors that played in front of the TCU crowd for the last time. The 14 wins at home tied the school record for most wins at home in a single season. They also picked up the most wins in a season since 2015. What Jason Williams has done for this program in such a short time has been remarkable to watch.
The Frogs move to 19-7 overall 11-5 in conference. They still are fifth in the Big 12 standings with two games to go. They will travel to Morgantown on Wednesday to take on West Virginia at 6 p.m. and then to Cincinnati on Friday at 1 p.m.

Texas Tech Health El Paso, UMC earn level 4 epilepsy center certification
EL PASO, TEXAS (KFOX14/CBS4) — Epilepsy patients in El Paso will now be able to access the highest level of specialized care without leaving the region after Texas Tech Health El Paso and its academic hospital partner, University Medical Center of El Paso, earned a top national certification.
The National Association of Epilepsy Centers certified the joint program as a Level 4 Epilepsy Center on Friday, April 3. A Level 4 Epilepsy Center represents the highest level of care for patients with epilepsy, offering the most advanced diagnostic and treatment options, including complex surgical interventions. The designation is the first of its kind for the Borderplex.
Sushma Reddy Yerram, M.D., a neurologist with Texas Tech Physicians of El Paso and an assistant professor in the Department of Neurology at the Foster School of Medicine, shared that this certification means avoiding long-distance travel for their patients.
“With this designation, our epilepsy patients can receive the most advanced medical and surgical care close to home—eliminating the need to travel elsewhere,” Yerram said.
Before the certification, patients from El Paso and their families had to travel to Albuquerque, Phoenix, Dallas, Austin or San Antonio to receive level 4 of epilepsy care. Staying in El Paso means patients can remain close to their support systems of family and friends while receiving advanced care.
Texas Tech Health El Paso President Richard Lange, M.D., M.B.A., shared his pride in the efforts involved.
“This milestone reflects an extraordinary collaborative effort, and I’m incredibly proud of the team whose dedication made this historic achievement possible,” Lange said.
