Washington State University’s women’s basketball program has unveiled its complete non‑conference schedule for the 2026‑27 season, a 16‑game slate that mixes early road tests with a series of home contests in Pullman.
Season Opener and Early Road Tests
The campaign kicks off on November 2 with an away game at California, then travels to Oregon on November 6 to continue the opening stretch.
Home Openers in Pullman
Pullman will host three early home games, beginning with a matchup against Idaho on November 9, followed by Southern Utah on November 13, and a rivalry contest against Washington on November 17.
National Showcases
The Cougars will head to Mexico for the Cancun Challenge, opening the tournament against Kansas on November 26 before facing Missouri State on November 27. A subsequent road swing takes the team to Nevada on December 1, then to San Diego for a multi‑team event that includes a game against Arizona State on December 12 and a second contest on December 13.
December Home Stretch
December concludes with a series of home games, starting with Portland on December 6, Eastern Washington on December 8, and UNLV on December 16. The schedule also features a neutral‑site contest against Arizona State in San Diego on December 12, and a final home appearance against Cal State LA on December 30 to close the non‑conference portion.
The Pac‑12 Conference schedule and game times will be announced at a later date, leaving the non‑conference slate as the first point of focus for fans and analysts alike.
