TCU had no answer for USC as they lost their first game of the regional 13-1.

This is a start that Tommy LaPour wanted to forget. He went three innings while allowing three runs on six hits with one walk and five strikeouts. He also hit two batters.

USC got on the board first in the second inning with an RBI single from catcher Richard Tejeda, who brought second baseman Abbrie Covarrubias in. This made the score 1-0.

The Trojans would add on in the fourth inning, making the score 3-0. Right fielder Jack Basseer hit a RBI single, bringing Covarrubias home. Which was followed up by a fielder’s choice from third baseman Ethan Hedges.

TCU would finally get on the board in the bottom of the fourth inning with a solo home run from designated hitter Sawyer Strosnider. He pulled the call and deposited it into right field. This made the TCU’s deficit 4-1, the closest TCU would get.

USC would pile on in the sixth inning. Shortstop Bryce Martin-Grudzielanek would single with the bases loaded and bring Tejeda in. First baseman Adrian Lopez would continue the scoring as he would single and bring center fielder Brayden Dowd in.

Covarrubias would cap off the inning with a sacrifice fly to bring in Hedges and give USC a 6-1 lead.

The game would not improve for TCU as USC tacked on a pair of three-run innings in the seventh and ninth innings. The Horned Frogs pitchers shot themselves in the foot in those innings as they walked five batters, hit two and had a throwing error.

The Frogs must improve to extend its run in the 2025 NCAA baseball tournament. TCU will be in the loser’s bracket of the regional, so TCU will have to win out to win the regional. TCU will play Oregon State Saturday at 2 p.m. on ESPN+.

Klebe's NCAA Run Concludes In Saturday Quarterfinals

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Abby Klebe’s outstanding junior season came to an end Saturday evening in the quarterfinal round of the 800 meters at the NCAA East First Round at Hodges Stadium. Klebe once again broke her own school record in Thursday’s first round, securing the final spot among the 24 runners that advanced to Saturday’s quarterfinals.

Klebe ran 2:03.96 in heat 2 of 6 Thursday afternoon, finishing fourth in her heat by .28 seconds. The top three runners in each of six heats plus the next six fastest times overall advanced to the quarterfinals. She had to sweat out the results of the remaining six heats, ultimately finishing 21st overall and securing the last qualifying spot.

On Saturday, Klebe ran in the third of three heats, battling against a fast pace that saw the top two finishers in the heat break the two-minute mark. Ultimately, Klebe’s time of 2:07.79 ranked seventh in her heat and 23rd overall.

The NCAA First Round performance caps an outdoor season where Klebe won her third consecutive Patriot League outdoor title in the 800m. She lowered her own school record on four occasions: the Bison Outdoor Classic in April, the Patriot League Championships, the Princeton Elite Invitational and Thursday in Jacksonville. Klebe also won the indoor 800m Patriot League title and is a two-time champion and school record holder on the indoor track.
