“Our program is extremely excited to play against the USA National Team on September 26,” Whitting said. “Constellation Field is a great venue and we always look forward to competing in that stadium in front of our fans. With 23 new players on this year’s roster, this will be a good opportunity for them to experience a live gameday prior to our season this spring. This opportunity will be invaluable to our team and staff in preparations for the 2017 season."
Gates will open at 6 p.m. and the Sugar Land Skeeters Ticket Office will handle all admission. Note: this game will not count towards Houston’s win-loss record for the 2017 season.
