As March Madness approaches, TCU Horned Frogs star guard Hailey Van Lith is making headlines both on and off the court.

In a recent Instagram interview, Van Lith reflected on her journey, her love for the tournament and even paid tribute to pop superstar Taylor Swift.

During the social media feature titled "#10Things," Van Lith shared insights into her life, showcasing her basketball mindset, personal style and inspirations.

One of the standout moments from the post was her nod to Swift’s Eras Tour tradition—friendship bracelets.

“What I love about March Madness is that anything can happen out there,” Van Lith said in the interview.

Accompanying her words were various images and videos, including one that featured bracelets with the word “Fearless” on them—a clear homage to Swift’s 2008 album and one of her most iconic anthems.

Swift’s fans, known as Swifties, have made trading friendship bracelets a beloved ritual at concerts, symbolizing connection and shared experiences.

For Van Lith, the choice of a “Fearless” bracelet likely represents her mindset as she enters her fourth NCAA tournament, fresh off leading TCU to a Big 12 Championship, per ESPN.

Beyond basketball, Van Lith’s admiration for NBA legend Kobe Bryant has also been well-documented. In the interview, she also showed off custom Kobe-inspired sneakers and credited the late basketball icon for influencing her competitive spirit.

Whether it’s sinking crucial shots or making a fashion statement, one thing is certain—Hailey Van Lith is ready to take on March Madness with confidence and determination.
