SAN ANTONIO – The UTSA and UIW women’s soccer teams will face off for the second time during the regular season at Toyota Field, San Antonio’s largest soccer venue.

“Being able to put our players on the biggest platform,” said UTSA women’s soccer head coach Derek Pittman. “Being able to showcase Division I college women’s soccer at this level in front of our great fans in San Antonio is an exciting opportunity.”

The last time the two programs met during the regular season, the Roadrunners were shut out 6-0 in 2018. As for fall exhibition games, the two teams have met three times in the last five years.

This time around, UTSA is looking to go 7-7-4 in its first season in the American Athletic Conference, while UIW is looking to post a 6-8-2 record in 2023-24.

“It makes sense to showcase two Division I teams in San Antonio,” said Jake Plant, who arrived at UIW in December 2022. “We both know we can help each other get better; we’re in different conferences, we’ll play a competitive game every time we get together.”

The match will be played at Toyota Field, home of San Antonio FC, on August 18 at 6:00 p.m.
