HOUSTON (Interstat) — The Houston Cougars look to build on a season-opening win when they host the Texas-San Antonio Roadrunners in a non-conference women’s basketball game Saturday at Hofheinz Pavilion.

Houston (1-0) began its season with a 76-59 victory over Texas-Arlington on Tuesday. The Cougars’ offense showed balance in the win, setting a positive tone for the early schedule.

UTSA (0-0) tips off its 2025-26 campaign after last playing in March, a 67-51 loss to Gonzaga in its previous season’s finale. The Roadrunners will rely on returning contributors like Jade Jones, who nearly posted a double-double with 13 points and nine rebounds in that contest, and Amirah Abdur-Rahim, who added 16 points.

The game marks the start of a challenging opening stretch for the Roadrunners, who will face Auburn and Baylor later this month. Houston, meanwhile, will turn its attention to a crosstown showdown with Rice on Tuesday following this contest.

Tipoff is set for Saturday, Nov. 8, in Houston.
