Home field advantage has a new meaning for the Idaho women’s soccer team.
Weeks after the athletic department announced a transition indoors for the upcoming season, the team announced its 19-game schedule, which includes a program-high 11 home games.
“The 2017 fall season is going to be an exciting time for our players and fans,” head coach Derrick Pittman said in a news release. “Not only are we celebrating the 20th season for our program, we are also making history by being the first NCAA soccer team to play all of its games indoors.”
The Vandals completed their home schedule at Guy Wicks Field last year, before subpar field conditions and drainage issues forced the team to find a new venue at the Kibbie Dome.
