As the fall semester begins at Weber State University, so do the season’s sports. For those students who want to show off their school spirit and support the athletics of Weber this fall, this is the guide for you.
Weber State football is played at Stewart Stadium on the east side of campus with a backdrop of mountains on one side and the Ogden Valley on the other. The eight-time Big Sky Champion Wildcats’ first home game is against Butler University on Sept. 20, at 6 p.m.
Women’s soccer meets on Wildcat Soccer Field on the south end of campus. The Wildcats have been Big Sky regular-season champions six times and Big Sky Tournament Champions four times. If you have a love for the game, then Wildcat Soccer Field is the place to be this fall. The first home game for women’s soccer is against California State University, Bakersfield, on Aug. 21 at 7 p.m.
For volleyball fans, Swenson Gym, located next to Wildcat Soccer Field, is home to the Weber State women’s volleyball team. The team has won the Big Sky Tournament three times, earning an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.
If you enjoy fast-paced action with powerful spikes and team coordination, then let’s support these athletes in their sport. Their first home game is an exhibition game against Utah State University on Aug. 23 at 1 p.m.
For the growing support of hockey in Utah, Weber State men’s hockey is a sight to see. At the Weber County Ice Sheet, puck drop is always at 7:15 p.m. Their first game is on Sept. 12 at 7:15 pm.
Lastly, we have basketball for both the men’s and women’s teams, which play near the end of the semester. Both play in the Dee Events Center, located south of campus, next to the Weber County Ice Sheet. Weber State basketball has produced many NBA players throughout its time, the most recent being Dillon Jones.
Men’s basketball has won the Big Sky regular-season title 20 times and the tournament 16 times in its history. The women have won the regular season six times and the tournament four times. If basketball is your game, support our men’s and women’s teams this fall and spring. Both basketball seasons begin at the end of October.
