On the Road Again
The Owls are back in action tomorrow afternoon when the team faces Tulsa at 1 p.m. on the road for an AAC matchup. Rice will return home next Thursday to face No. 12 Memphis at Holloway Field.
A Tough Road Ahead
Rice will face several opponents in 2023 that are either ranked or receiving votes in the current United Soccer Coaches poll. The Owls will face No. 14 Memphis later in the season. Rice has already faced No. 15 Texas, No. 17 Xavier and RV SMU this season.
Rice vs. Tulsa
Rice is 11-5 all-time against Tulsa and has won six of the last seven meetings. This is the first match between the two since the 2018 season, when Rice defeated Tulsa 2-0. The Owls are 4-3 all-time on the road against Tulsa.
Weekly Honors (8-28)
Halseth was named to the AAC Weekly Honor Roll after a six-point performance recording a goal and assist against both Texas Southern and Northwestern State. Halseth scored the game-winning goal against the Tigers while assisting on the game-winning goal against the Demons.
New Season, New Conference
The 2023 season marks Rice's inaugural season in the American Athletic Conference (AAC). Rice was one of six schools (Charlotte, Florida Atlantic, North Texas, UAB and UTSA) to join the conference for this season. Rice is coming off a regular season title in C-USA after posting a 9-0-1 conference record last year.
Three Owls Tabbed for Preseason Honors, Owls Picked Fourth in AAC West
Catarina Albuquerque, Mikala Furuto and Sarah Piper all earned preseason accolades by being named to the AAC Preseason Watch List. Furuto was also selected to the 2022 Second Team All-Conference USA last season. Rice was selected to finish fourth in the AAC West division behind AAC favorite Memphis, SMU and North Texas. UTSA and Tulsa rounded out the last two spots in the poll.
