UNLV Lady Rebels: Women's Sports Updates

While everyone is getting excited for UNLV Rebels football to kick off in just over a week, there are plenty of other Rebels sports getting ready to kick off as well. Those sports included women's soccer and women's volleyball. We have some big news on both.

UNLV Rebels Women's Soccer Set To Kick Off Tonight

Tonight, Thursday, August 14, at 7 PM local time, the Rebels will take the field against the Arizona Wildcats at Murphey Field at Mulcahy Stadium in Tucson, Arizona.

For the sixth straight season, the Rebels will be led by head coach Jenny Williams. Her squad was picked to finish sixth in the 2025 Mountain West preseason poll, but looks to far exceed those expectations. They will return key players, senior goalie Hanne Breur, senior defender Gianna Newby, and junior forward Cassie Villanueva. They have also brought in new key pieces through the transfer portal, including Brooke Gardner from Salt Lake CC, Alyssa White from Fresno City CC, Allison Dellis from Midwestern State, Tania Tapia from New Mexico State/Highline College, and Mauri Ashman from Utah Tech.
