BEAUMONT – Junior Andreya Barrera scored her first goal of the season to lead the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley women’s soccer team past Lamar 1-0 on Friday at the LU Soccer Complex.

About The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley
The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley was created by the Texas Legislature on Dec. 7, 2012, in a historic move that combined the resources and assets of UTPA and UTB, and, for the first time, made it possible for residents of the Rio Grande Valley to benefit from the Permanent University Fund. The institution will also be home to a School of Medicine and will transform Texas and the nation by becoming a leader in student success, teaching, research and healthcare. UTRGV enrolled its first class in the fall of 2015, and the School of Medicine opens this fall.
