I provided the link to the schedule:
https://uiwcardinals.com/sports/mens-soccer/schedule
Code:
Aug 14 (Sun) 1 p.m. Home Richland College San Antonio, TX (Gayle & Tom Benson Stadium)
Aug 18 (Thu) 7 p.m. Away Trinity University (Texas) San Antonio, TX
Aug 20 (Sat) 7 p.m. Away Southern Methodist University Dallas, TX
Aug 25 (Thu) 5 p.m. Neutral Campbell University Houston, TX
Aug 27 (Sat) 5 p.m. Neutral Furman University Houston, TX
Sep 2 (Fri) 4 p.m. Neutral University of Evansville Dayton, OH
Sep 4 (Sun) 12 p.m. Neutral St. Thomas (Minn.) Dayton, OH
Sep 8 (Thu) 1 p.m. Away Gonzaga University Spokane, WA
Sep 12 (Mon) 7 p.m. Away Oral Roberts University Tulsa, OK
Sep 21 (Wed) 12 p.m. Home California State University at Fullerton San Antonio, TX (Gayle & Tom Benson Stadium)
Sep 25 (Sun) 7 p.m. Away Houston Baptist University Houston, TX
Oct 4 (Tue) 7 p.m. Away College of Charleston Charleston, SC
Oct 8 (Sat) 9 p.m. Away San Jose State University San Jose, CA
Oct 11 (Tue) 7 p.m. Away Georgia State University Atlanta, Ga.
Oct 15 (Sat) 7 p.m. Away Santa Clara University Santa Clara, CA
Oct 22 (Sat) 7:30 p.m. Home Utah Tech San Antonio, TX (Gayle & Tom Benson Stadium)
Oct 26 (Wed) 6:30 p.m. Away The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley Edinburg, TX
Oct 30 (Sun) 7 p.m. Home Houston Baptist University San Antonio, TX (Gayle & Tom Benson Stadium)
Nov 2 (Wed) 7 p.m. Away Bradley University Peoria, IL
It appears that UIW was the odd-team in the original 11-team schedule where the travel/host pairs are:
Seattle-San Jose State
CBU-UVU
UNLV-UTU
GCU-AFA
HBU-UTRGV
So it is possible that UIW told the WAC that if they decided to stay in the Southland for all sports that, that they would be leaving the WAC for men's soccer.
San Jose State, Utah Tech, UTRGV, and HBU kept their OOC games (possibly moved to a different date). The WAC generally plays Thursday-Saturday. Other conferences which are more compact play Wednesday-Saturday so there is more rest. There is a proposal now to switch to a fall-spring schedule so that there are mostly once per week matches.
Yes, the schedule is on the website. There is no story along with it, or a mention from UIW Twitter. They are hoping nobody sees it or will ask about their conference affiliation.

Or when they brag about playing the national champs, hope nobody notices it is a D3 juco team.
