About the UTSA Roadrunners
The Roadrunners are looking to snap a four-game losing skid back at home where UTSA is 2-2 this season. UTSA is coming off its most challenging stretch of the season. Dating back to the last home game against South Alabama, the Roadrunners battled four teams that boast a combined record 38-10 (79.2 percent) and an average NET ranking of 78. In the past three outings, the Roadrunners have produced some stellar play at times but are looking to deliver a complete game for their final home game of 2025.
The Roadrunners are averaging 71.5 ppg on 39.2 percent shooting, holding the opposition to the second-best percentage in the American (69th nationally) at .407, while also ranking 43rd in the NCAA with 40.7 rpg and 69th with 4.4 bpg.
Lima, Ohio graduate student Jamir Simpson has been the steady centerpiece for the Roadrunners, now reaching double-figures in all 11 contests and 20+ points in six for an American-third (59th NCAA) 18.6 ppg on 42.1 percent shooting. He leads the team with 30 three-pointers, ranking third in the American with 2.7 triples per game. Junior Brent Moss (8.4 ppg, 3.9 rpg) and freshman Dorian Hayes (8.1 ppg, 1.9 rpg, 2.3 apg) are flanking leading rebounder freshman Kaidon Rayfield (8.3 ppg, 6.5 rpg) in the scoring column. Meanwhile, sophomore Baboucarr Njie continues to pace UTSA’s 4.4 block per game effort with a 1.5 bpg average.
About the Seatte Redhawks
A storied program from the West Coast Conference, Seattle is off to a 10-2 start and fresh from earning a Big Ten victory over Washington at Climate Pledge Arena on Friday, 70-66. Now in the fifth season under Chris Victor, the Redhawks were 14-18 last year, but 23-14 in 2023-24 with an appearance in the Ro College Basketball Invitational championship game. SU puts up notable points (81.8 ppg) with the focus inside the paint and offensive efficiency, shooting 51 percent from the floor and only seeing 9.7 fast break points and 7.6 threes per game. A tough defensive unit, SU limits the opposition to 66.4 ppg, holding a 40.3 percent shooting stat on defense.
Leading three double-digit scorers, returning senior guard Brayden Maldonado is putting up 16.0 ppg, along with 3.8 rpg and team highs of 29 assists (2.4 apg) and 24 steals (2.0 spg). He’s scored over 20 four times and was in the single digits in three games. Sophomore forward Will Heimbrodt grabs 4.0 rpg to go with 14.2 ppg and has a team-high 31 blocks (2.8 bpg) at ninth in the NCAA. Former Gonzaga player and Korean National Team member senior forward Jun Seok Yeo also adds 12.2 ppg and 4.1 ppg. Sophomore center Austin Maurer rounds out a top-4 scoring group that all shoot over .505, chipping in 8.3 ppg with a team-high 4.8 rpg

UTSA is 2-7 against teams from the WCC and 1-1 against the league in San Antonio
