Description

EDINBURG -- The University of Texas-Pan American (UTPA) Department of Intercollegiate Athletics announced in a press conference on Wednesday that an emerging Broncs women's soccer team begins play in 2014, while the men's soccer team returns after an 18-year hiatus in 2015. In an effort to provide scholarship assistance to Rio Grande Valley students and the soccer programs, Val LaMantia Peisen has made a $275,000 leadership gift to establish the William D. Peisen Endowed Scholarship for Intercollegiate Soccer. In 2012, 204 institutions competed in NCAA Division I men's soccer. Only two men's soccer programs, SMU and Houston Baptist, are in Texas. Incarnate Word, which sponsors men's soccer, begins the transition to Division I in 2013.
