Good morning, Roadrunners Fam. The UTSA softball team is set to host UAB across a three-game AAC series, beginning tonight at 6 p.m. CT with a Salute to Armed Forces and Veterans. Competition continues with Little League Day on Saturday at 2 p.m. and will conclude with Alumni Day on Sunday at 1 p.m.

The Roadrunners (15-23, 2-13 AAC) will look to avoid a five-game skid after falling to Baylor last time out. Freshman Ava Eldridge got tagged with the loss despite allowing just one earned run over five innings of work.

⚾️ : SCOUTING REPORT

🔼 Full Circle Softball Moment. As legacies go, Kalee Rochinski was born with softball in her DNA. But, as UTSA’s starting catcher, she’s charting her own impressive path while helping the Roadrunners elevate their program to new heights.

Rochinski, a sophomore from Montgomery, Texas, is a second-generation Roadrunner whose mother, Michelle Campbell, played for UTSA in 1996.

Campbell, now Michelle Rochinski, spent 24 years as a high school softball coach, including at Lake Creek High School, where Kalee played. Michelle won more than 500 games, had a career winning percentage of better than 75 percent and won a pair of state championships.

This Sunday, in the final game of UTSA’s series with UAB, Michelle will be one of the former players that the Roadrunners will welcome home on their Alumni Day at Roadrunner Field.

🔼 Home Court Advantage. The UTSA men’s tennis team (8-10) opens its final week of regular season action this morning at the UTSA Tennis Center, welcoming Prairie View A&M (2-22) to San Antonio for a twin-bill. The Roadrunners and Panthers will face off twice today, with first serves set for 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. CT. UTSA is gunning for its fifth consecutive 10-win season.

Sunday will be the regular season finale and the Roadrunners’ Senior Day at the UTSA Tennis Center. UTSA will host Western Athletic Conference foe Grand Canyon on April 13 at noon. The AAC Championships follow in Memphis from April 17-20 at the Tigers’ Leftwich Tennis Center.
