The San José State University Spartans women’s soccer team will host its senior day before the match against the Sacramento State Hornets, closing out their non-conference schedule for the 2026 season. The game will be held in San Jose, California, and will be broadcast live on the Mountain West Network Plus (MW+).
Key players Paige Fry, Paige Pineda-Aliamus and Indigo Sims have been named to the 2026 Mountain West Women’s Soccer Watch List. Fry, a goalkeeper, leads the Mountain West with 30 saves and recorded her first career shutout in a 0-0 draw against CSU Northridge this season. Freshman Abigail Peterman scored her first two collegiate goals in the season opener against Fullerton, becoming the first San José State freshman since 2010 to score multiple goals in a single game.
San José State holds a 9-12-3 all-time record against Sacramento State. Their last meeting was a 4-2 loss for San José State last season in Sacramento. The upcoming game will be only the third meeting between the two teams in the past decade, with the last Spartans victory over Sacramento State on August 21, 2016, in San Jose.
