SAN ANTONIO – During the 2026 season, UTSA Baseball shattered previous school records for attendance as local support for the program continued to rise. Across UTSA’s 58-game campaign, the Navy & Orange capped off the year with a 38-20 record, securing a second consecutive American Conference regular-season championship at 17-10 in league play.
Coming off a Super Regionals berth in 2025, a school-record 403 season tickets were sold in the offseason. This spring, UTSA hosted 28 games at Roadrunner Field, finishing 21-7 in such contests. Over those 28 appearances, 28,190 total spectators made their way into the ballpark, charting a new school record. Back in 2024, UTSA welcomed 21,050 fans over 30 home games, setting a program high for season attendance at the time.
UTSA’s average attendance of 1,007 also marked a new school record, which was previously set in 2024 at 702. For the first time in school history, there was an average of more than 1,000 fans per night at Roadrunner Field. The official facility capacity is 1,000 fans, meaning the facility averaged 100.7% capacity for the year.
UTSA finished the season at fifth in the American Conference in total (28,190) and average attendance (1,007). All four teams in the league that finished above UTSA in the metric have a stadium capacity of 5,000 or more. In 12 of 28 home games, Roadrunner Field exceeded capacity, surpassing 1,000 spectators in nearly half of all contests, setting yet another school record.
With a single-game high of 1,585 coming in a 19-4 drubbing of rival Texas State on May 12, UTSA established a new program record. The bruising of the Bobcats crushed the previous best mark by more than 100, which came a year prior against TXST on March 25, when UTSA also won by an 18-13 margin in front of 1,457 fans.
Before the 2026 campaign, UTSA had never averaged 1,000 fans per night over a three-game series. Then, the Roadrunners did so across three straight home weekends, setting a new program record each time. A sweep of Dallas Baptist (Feb. 20-22) was the first-such series in the 34-year history of the park before the record was broken once again versus UT Arlington (March 13-15). Then, East Carolina rolled in for a matchup of the league’s top two seeds across March 27-29. The back-and-forth matchup went to UTSA in front of 3,371 total fans, setting a new club benchmark of 1,124 spectators per contest.
