Fort Myers, FL — Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) women’s soccer is set to kick off its 2025 season on Thursday, August 13, at 7 p.m. The season opener will take place at Pickering Field against Cal State Fullerton. This match marks a significant moment in FGCU history as it introduces fall season tickets for its women’s soccer program for the very first time.
Fans can purchase the newly available season tickets starting at $60. In a show of support for both soccer programs, anyone buying season tickets for either the men’s or women’s teams will automatically receive a season ticket combo valid for both teams. For those desiring to attend individual games, single-game tickets are priced starting at $12, with options for mini-plans and single-game tickets available online.
All home matches this season will be streamed live through ESPN+, providing broader access to fans who wish to follow the team remotely. During home games, fans can also collect complimentary season schedule posters and cards at the marketing table, enhancing their experience. Additionally, a postgame poster signing will take place after the match, giving fans an opportunity to interact with players.
FGCU’s competitive roster features three standout players who have earned recognition on the preseason All-ASUN team. Midfielder Erika Zschuppe has distinguished herself as both the ASUN Player and Midfielder of the Year, while defender Lauren Dwyer was named Defender of the Year. Joining them is Kendal Gargiula, creating a strong showing as FGCU was the only institution to have three or more players honored on the preseason list. Nevertheless, FGCU was projected to finish second in the ASUN preseason poll, garnering four first-place votes from participating coaches.
The upcoming match against Cal State Fullerton is particularly noteworthy as it will be just the second meeting between the two teams in the program’s history, following their previous clash in 2015 where Cal State Fullerton emerged victorious with a score of 4-3 in double overtime. This occasion also marks the first time Cal State Fullerton will visit Fort Myers.
In anticipation of their season, FGCU has scheduled a follow-up match against Webber International on Sunday, August 17, at 1 p.m. at Pickering Field. The team will be looking to build on its strong performances and impressive player accolades as they face new and familiar opponents throughout the season.
With this new initiative of offering fall season tickets alongside the recognition of key players, FGCU women’s soccer looks forward to engaging fans and making 2025 a memorable season both on and off the field.
