Oregon State’s men’s soccer program has released its full schedule for the upcoming season, outlining a blend of exhibition games, early road trips and a brand‑new Pac‑12 conference slate. The announcement comes as the Beavers look to build on last year’s momentum and stake a claim in the inaugural conference tournament.
Early tests and early trips
The season opens with two exhibition matches against Seattle and Portland before the regular campaign kicks off on August 20 with a visit to UC Irvine. A week later, the Beavers travel to face Washington, a team that eliminated them from the NCAA Tournament the previous year, adding a layer of rivalry to the early schedule.
September showdowns
September brings a trio of high‑profile opponents. Oregon State will host Georgetown on September 4 and travel to Virginia on September 8, both programs boasting strong tournament histories. The team will also meet Portland again on September 13 in a match that will count toward the official record, providing a chance for redemption after a prior exhibition.
Pac‑12 debut and affiliate landscape
The Pac‑12 schedule kicks off on September 30 with a game against San Diego State, and several Big West teams will compete as affiliates, expanding the Beavers’ regional exposure. The regular season concludes with a home matchup against Gonzaga on October 31, setting the stage for the inaugural Pac‑12 tournament.
The Pac‑12 tournament is slated for November 7 and 14, and the Beavers are well positioned to contend for the first-ever conference title. A strong finish could also secure an automatic berth back to the NCAA Tournament, a goal that has driven the program’s ambitious non‑conference planning.
