Road Trip Begins
The Colorado College Tigers are heading south for a five‑match road trip that opens on Thursday in San Antonio, where they will meet the UTSA Roadrunners at 6:35 p.m. mountain time. The contest will be streamed live on ESPN+, giving fans across the country a chance to follow the action.
Early Season Momentum
Colorado College began the season with a 3‑1 victory over the Creighton Bluejays, a win highlighted by two goals and an assist from freshman midfielder Ella Ashouri. The Tigers followed that performance with a 1‑0 shutout of the Drake Bulldogs, again courtesy of Ashouri’s penalty‑kick strike.
Roadrunner Rivalry
UTSA arrives with a 0‑0‑2 record after two home matches against Texas State and TCU ended in draws, leaving the Roadrunners eager to break through and secure their first win of the campaign. Their attack has found the net twice while their defense has also conceded twice, setting the stage for a tight contest.
Looking Ahead to Norman
The two programs have met twice before, each encounter ending in a 0‑0 stalemate, adding a layer of familiarity to Thursday’s showdown. Colorado College will next test its mettle against the Oklahoma Sooners on Sunday at 10 a.m. mountain time in Norman, a game that could further shape their early season trajectory.
Key Players to Watch
Key contributors for the Tigers include sophomore forward Kate Pulley, junior forward Finley Schoenbeck and the aforementioned Ella Ashouri, whose early season output has already placed her among the team’s top offensive threats.
