About The Opposition
UTSA (0-1): The Roadrunners are led by first year-head coach Greg Sheen and are part of Conference USA … UTSA lost its season opener in overtime, 2-1, to ACU's Southland Conference rival Sam Houston State, and earlier the Roadrunners were shutout in back-to-back exhibitions vs. Incarnate Word and Texas State … Last year UTSA posted a 6-10-2 win-loss record and won only two of its 10 conference matches.
Â
UC Irvine (1-1): The Anteaters of the Big West Conference split their season-opening homestand last weekend as they followed a 1-0 loss to Auburn with a 3-1 victory vs. Idaho State … Their exhibition results included consecutive ties vs. Richmond (1-1) and Cal State Northridge (0-0) … They are projected to finish fourth in the Big West this season after going 3-4-1 vs. the league a year ago as part of a 7-9-3 campaign.
