Triathlon to Nationals 2024

The UTSA Triathlon team is glad to announce that our campaign for Collegiate Nationals has begun and want to thank everyone in advance for their support! Please share our story with your friends and family and wish us luck on our journey to Mission Viejo, California.

What started out as a small group of friends...

Soon became a multisport family…

This is Our Journey...

The UTSA Triathlon Team is the premier multisport family at the University of Texas at San Antonio. Our team competes as part of USA Triathlon’s South Midwest Region. The SMW Region consists of any post-secondary college, university, or professional school in Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas, or Louisiana. Our main competition comes from Texas A&M, UT, and Baylor. Over the years our organization has grown at a rapid rate and includes student-athletes from all types of athletic backgrounds. In addition, our team has also grown competitively, representing UTSA in multiple competitions a year with multiple athletes qualifying at the National and even World Championship level. This year will be our 10th national appearance with over 20 racers qualified to represent UTSA. 

Our mission as a Collegiate Triathlon Team is simple: to introduce student-athletes to the multi-sport realm of Triathlon and develop them into successful students, competitors, and future leaders. We strive to enhance each team member's college experience while supporting their individual athletic goals by providing professional coaching, top-tier competitive experiences, and a family of supportive athlete-peers. 

Having finished in the top 4 in our region every year since our inception, we have set a competitive goal of bringing an SMW Regional Championship home to San Antonio.

Our Project

In addition to securing the funding to train and compete in 7 Collegiate Triathlons throughout the year, our goal is to go to the 2024 USAT National Championships in Mission Viejo, California with as many of our athletes as possible to represent our university, our city, and our state in the best way we know how. Thousands of hours of training have been put into preparation, and thousands more will be logged before the team crosses the finish line in California. 

The UTSA Triathlon Team has over 20 athletes qualified for the National Championships in April! In addition to our accrued training/racing expenses, that means 20 bike transports($250), 20 race fees($150), 1 AirBNB for 4 nights ($1,200), 1 rental car for 5 days plus fuel ($100/day), and much more to get these athletes to Orange County. By donating in honor of a Team member, a portion of your Gift will go directly to that team member’s personal expenses for the trip.

We ask our friends, family members, and community to consider supporting our team in this great endeavor. Your tax-deductible contributions, big or small, mean the world to us as individuals and as a team. 

We are extremely grateful for all the support we've already received from our local community and hope to have another successful year of Launch UTSA.
