2026 Season Unveiled
Indiana University Northwest’s women’s soccer program has released its full 2026 slate, a 18‑game campaign that blends non‑conference road trips with a heavy home schedule. The RedHawks will play ten matches on their own turf, beginning with a preseason scrimmage against Rock Valley College on August 8.
The team’s first official test comes on August 15, when they host Purdue Northwest for a final preseason tune‑up. A week later, on August 21, the RedHawks open the regular season at Rochester Christian University before heading out to face Spring Arbor University and returning home for contests versus IU Kokomo, IU Columbus and Columbia College (Mo.).
Conference Play and Home Highlights
Conference action begins on September 23 at Olivet Nazarene University, but the RedHawks will soon enjoy a stretch of home fixtures that shape the heart of the schedule. Mount Mary University visits on September 29, followed by IU South Bend on October 7, Judson University on October 17, Holy Cross College on October 24, and a showdown with the University of St. Francis on October 27, the final regular‑season match.
The RedHawks will also travel to meet Calumet College, Governors State and Saint Xavier during conference play, while non‑conference road trips take them to additional Midwestern opponents. The regular season concludes on October 27, after which the team prepares for the CCAC Tournament, the gateway to postseason competition.
