Head coach of the women's team, Raegan Pebley tweeted out video of the sweet exchange between athletes.

"This is what our team came home to after learning of the NCAA tourney cancellation. Being a part of the FROGfam is an honor. Thank you @TCU_Athletics, @TCU_Baseball and @TCUBasketball. We are still picking our hearts off the ground and in time they be securely back in our chest."

For the first time in the tournament's history, the Division I men's and women's 2020 basketball games, as well as all remaining winter and spring NCAA championships were cancelled on Thursday.
