October 27, 2020 09:09 AM | Women's Soccer
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – West Virginia University and its Department of Intercollegiate Athletics will welcome fans back to Dick Dlesk Soccer Stadium for the first time this fall on Friday, Oct. 30, when the Mountaineer women's soccer team plays host to Kansas. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. ET.
The stadium will operate at 25% capacity as part of the health, safety and wellness measures being implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The athletics department, in conjunction with the University's team of medical professionals and appropriate parties, will not only cap attendance at approximately 400 fans for the contest, but will also take additional steps to increase fan safety.
Facemasks will be required of all spectators entering the stadium and should be worn at all times. Additionally, to provide a contactless entry, WVU has switched to mobile ticketing for all fans this season. Fans are advised to download and store tickets to their Apple or Android smartphone prior to arriving at the gate. No paper tickets will be offered. More information on mobile ticketing is available at WVUsports.com/MobileTickets.
Fans are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance by visiting WVUGAME.com or calling 1-800-WVU GAME to avoid lines at the gate on game day. When purchasing online, tickets are $5 each. At the stadium ticket window on game day, any remaining tickets are $7 for adults and $5 for youth and seniors. The discounted online pricing will be available until kickoff of the match.
A limited amount of WVU student tickets also will be made available at the Mountaineer Ticket Office, located at Dick Dlesk Soccer Stadium. The office, as well as the stadium gates, opens at 6:30 p.m., on game day. WVU students are admitted for free with a valid WVU Student I.D.
All tickets are general admission. Seats will be socially distanced and available seats will be identified by stickers placed on the bleachers.
Friday's contest against the Jayhawks also is WVU's Pink Match and all fans are encouraged to wear pink in support of breast cancer awareness month. The No. 6-ranked Mountaineers (6-1, 6-1 Big 12) have won four consecutive matches and are coming off a 1-0 win at Oklahoma on Oct. 23.
