Opening the Conference USA Campaign
The New Mexico State Aggies women's basketball team will open its Conference USA slate on January 2, 2027, when they travel to face Florida International University in Miami. Just two days later, the squad will make its first appearance at Missouri State in Springfield, marking the start of a demanding road stretch that will test the team's depth early in the season.
Coach's staff has crafted a schedule that balances nine home games with nine away contests for the 2026‑27 campaign. Highlighted matchups include a home showdown with Western Kentucky on January 8 and a subsequent battle against Middle Tennessee on January 10, both set to take place in Las Cruces.
Home‑Court Emphasis in Late Season
The Aggies will also venture to Jacksonville State, Kennesaw State and Sam Houston State in January, before returning to the Pan American Center for contests against Delaware and Liberty later in the month. Those home games provide a crucial opportunity to build momentum as the team prepares for the latter half of the conference schedule.
February will see the Aggies host return meetings with Middle Tennessee and Western Kentucky, while the final stretch of the conference season features five of the last seven games on home soil, giving the team a chance to finish strong in front of its own fans.
Championship Outlook
The culmination of the regular season will be the Conference USA Championships, scheduled for March 9‑13 in Huntsville, Alabama. The tournament will bring together the league's top teams, and the Aggies hope to carry their home‑court advantage into the postseason.
