🔼 Midweek Win. The Roadrunners pulled off a big one at home! UTSA softball knocked off Southeastern Louisiana — a team receiving votes in both national polls — 2-1, at Roadrunner Field last night. Freshman Arlette Hernandez went the full seven innings to earn the win, and sophomore Skylar Rucker delivered the heroics with a two-run RBI double in the bottom of the fifth to give UTSA the lead for good. It marked UTSA's first win over a nationally recognized program since defeating Texas State on April 15, 2025. Up next, the 'Runners host day one of the 2026 Birds Up Bash today, taking on North Dakota at 4:30 p.m. and New Mexico State at 7 p.m.

🔼 Going Pro. The Roadrunners are headed to the next level! UTSA will host its annual Pro Day on Wednesday, March 18, at the Roadrunner Athletics Center of Excellence, with 16 former Roadrunner football players set to showcase their skills in front of NFL and professional league personnel. The event is closed to the public, with the NFL Draft to follow on April 23-25 in Pittsburgh.

🔼 Moving Forward. Great news for Roadrunner fans who love listening to their favorite teams! UTSA Athletics and iHeartMedia San Antonio have agreed to a new five-year deal, running through the 2030-31 season, for the UTSA Sports Network presented by Playfly Sports. The big addition? Baseball joins the lineup starting in 2027, with all American Conference games, select non-conference contests, and postseason games airing on KRPT-FM 93.3 (The Bull). Football and men's basketball will continue on Ticket 760 AM, while women's basketball stays on 93.3.

🔼 Poster Day. Don’t forget to grab your UTSA women's basketball Senior Day commemorative poster at the game on Sunday as the Roadrunners celebrate Cheyenne Rowe and Ereauna Hardaway.

Your Wendy’s Woman of the Month is softball’s Arlette Heranndez!

Since opening day, Freshman Arlette Heranndez has been the squad's most dominant arm, compiling a 4-2 record over 12 appearances with a 2.73 ERA across 43.2 innings of action. She’s fanned 40 on the campaign and twirled three complete games.
