The UTPB Falcons have a new, impressive notch on their belt – as reported by Jake Gadon of Odessa CBS7 – They’ll face their first Division I opponent in the history of their program next season.

This is obviously a huge deal, and a sign that the Falcons are moving up in the world.
The Falcons ended 2016 with a 2-9 record. Their first two games came as wins over Sul Ross and Arizona Christian, but a nine game skid ended their season. Time will tell how the Falcons fare on the field, but this is still a huge deal for their program.
