UTSA raced out to a 21-3 lead over Kennesaw State then things got pretty sloppy for the Roadrunners as penalties kept the Owls in the game. The underwhelming performance took away from a stellar home debut for Owen McCown, as well as a terrific showing from the Roadrunners' defense. We break down the key takeaways from the Alamodome as UTSA stumbled into a 1-0 record in the early season.

Breaking Not-So-Good News! UTSA Baseball is in the midst of a mass exodus through the transfer portal over the last month, following a lackluster finish in the AAC Tournament to finish their 2024 season. The list is up to 14 names in the portal as of the time of this publishing, and fingers crossed it doesn't get any longer. Dan and Adrian discuss: what gives? Why don't guys want to play for a competitive team with good culture and a winning coach? Is it merely a coincidence, or does something smell funky at the Bird Bath?
The Roadrunners are set for their first ever American Athletic Conference tournament as UTSA wrapped up the regular season as the #2 seed. This gives the team a favorable draw as they look to win the conference in the hopes of securing a bid to an NCAA regional.
