IRVING, Texas — Head coach Jeff Traylor and senior student-athletes Oscar Cardenas and Jamal Ligon will represent UTSA at the 2024 American Athletic Conference Kickoff, which will be held Monday and Tuesday, July 22-23 at Loews Arlington.
For the first time, The American is inviting a limited number of fans to be able to experience the 2024 Kickoff in-person to gain unprecedented access to players and coaches. Fans will have the opportunity to sit in on press conferences, take part in photo opportunities and enjoy meet-and-greets with the student-athletes and coaches.
Fans who wish to attend the 2024 Kickoff can register at TheAmerican.org/AACKickoff.
Twenty-eight student-athletes are scheduled to attend this year’s Kickoff, which will be held in Arlington for the second consecutive year. Media sessions will begin at 2 p.m. on Monday and will continue Tuesday morning with press conferences with the 14 head coaches. The results of The American’s preseason media poll will be announced at 8 a.m. and Commissioner Tim Pernetti will deliver his remarks Tuesday at 8:15 a.m.
In addition to the Tuesday press conferences, student-athletes and coaches will be available for breakout sessions during specified times on Tuesday and upon request during their scheduled Monday-afternoon block.
Live coverage of The American Kickoff will air Tuesday, July 22, at 8 a.m., as Morgan Uber, Rene Ingoglia, Taylor McHargue and Brooke Kirchhofer interview coaches and student-athletes from all 14 teams. ESPN+ will have that telecast, along with a second feed that will feature the full press conferences from the head coaches.
Loews Arlington is conveniently located approximately 20 minutes from Dallas Fort Worth International Airport at Texas Live! situated between Globe Life Field and Choctaw Stadium and across from AT&T Stadium.
