Hello Frog Fam! 
The months of April and May have absolutely flown by! Or was that just me? A lot has happened in a short amount of time, and I want to take this opportunity to share some important updates with you all.
First, we want to extend a heartfelt Thank You and Best Wishes Moving Forward to Jill Kramer, who served as Director of the Block T Association over the past two years. Jill recently stepped away from her role to pursue new endeavors with her family business. Her time with the Block T Association made a lasting impact and she leaves the Association stronger than she found it. Jill’s passion for TCU is unmatched; she truly bleeds purple, and we are so grateful for the dedication and leadership she brought to the program. While she will certainly be missed in an official capacity, we know she will always be a tremendous ambassador for both TCU and the Block T Association. We look forward to seeing her at many TCU Athletics events in the 2025-26 season!
Next, I want to thank everyone who participated, sponsored, or volunteered at the 2025 TCU Coaches Classic Golf Tournament. It was a fantastic day filled with fun, camaraderie, and reconnecting with former teammates and coaches. This year’s move to Rockwood Golf Course in Fort Worth was a great success, and we’re already excited to return there in 2026!
Also, a quick reminder that TCU Baseball is back in the postseason! Let’s all send our support to Coach Saarloos and the entire Frogball program as they compete in the Corvallis Regional this weekend. The Frogs open the tournament against USC on Friday, May 30, at 2 p.m. CT, and you can catch the action live on ESPNU.
Lastly, a note on membership: Annual Block T Association renewals will begin on Monday, June 2, for the upcoming 2025-26 year. We’re excited to continue growing our network and watching former TCU student-athletes support both Block T and TCU Athletics in powerful ways. Look for the links below to renew your membership or join the Block T Association!
Wishing you all a safe, happy, and relaxing summer—don’t forget to send us your vacation photos! We love seeing where life has taken our Horned Frogs and want to share your updates with fellow members and former teammates.
Go Frogs!
Best,
Dameon Myres
Assistant Director of the Block T Association
