FORT WORTH, Texas - The TCU women's tennis team, No. 12 for the third-consecutive week, saw sophomore Nicole Leimbach move up one spot from No. 5 to No. 4 and the doubles tandem of senior Helena Besovic and freshman Anna Sydorska move from No. 40 to No. 8 in the doubles rankings.

For the Frogs, the No. 12 ranking remains the highest in program history.

Leimbach moves up one position after starting the spring season 2-0 in singles play and 2-0 in doubles play. Hailing from Colorado Springs, Colo., Leimbach is also coming off a 1-1 record at the 2006 Regions Morgan Keegan Championships in Memphis, Tenn., on Friday and Saturday.

Besovic and Sydorska are currently 5-1 in doubles play including an 8-3 victory over then No. 11 Sara Anundsen and Jenna Long of North Carolina. The No. 8 ranking is the highest ever for a TCU women's doubles team.

TCU returns to action on Monday when it travels to Waco, Texas, to take on No. 16 Baylor. Match time is scheduled for 5 p.m.
