🤙 The Official Newsletter For UTSA Athletics

Good morning. The UTSA women's basketball team breezed past the defending American Athletic Conference Champions on Thursday, using a pair of dominant performances by senior Kyra White and freshman Aysia Proctor to take down South Florida, 65-43, inside the Convocation Center on Tuesday. The win marked UTSA's fourth in a row and 10th of the season, representing the team's fastest start since a 2013-14 campaign that saw the team open the year 11-6. 

The Roadrunners (10-7, 4-2 The American) bested the Bulls (11-8, 3-3 The American), leading wire-to-wire behind a career-high 23 point-performance by White and 19 courtesy of Proctor. 

UTSA next hits the road, with a matchup against UAB on the docket at 1 p.m. inside Bartow Arena in Birmingham, Alabama.
