Oregon State University’s women’s basketball program unveiled its 2026‑27 non‑conference schedule, promising a rigorous lineup that blends familiar rivals with new challenges.
A challenging non‑conference slate
The Beavs will open the season at home against Cal Baptist, and will also welcome Eastern Washington and Fairfield to Gill Coliseum in November, giving fans early chances to see the team in action.
A highlight of the slate is a home‑and‑home series with Arizona, with the first leg scheduled for a November visit to Tucson before the return game in Corvallis.
Showcase events and road trips
The team will travel to the Jacksonville Classic, where it will meet Vanderbilt and Middle Tennessee from November 23 to 25, adding a multi‑team showcase to the calendar.
In December, Oregon State will head to Hawaii for the Maui Classic, facing Idaho State on the 18th and Ball State on the 19th, before returning to the mainland for a New Year’s Day showdown against Columbia and Princeton in New York and New Jersey.
The schedule also includes a December visit from BYU, a former Pac‑12 opponent, and several other power‑conference foes, bringing the total number of games against top‑tier programs to four.
Ticket availability and expectations
Season tickets for the 2026‑27 season are now on sale, allowing supporters to secure seats for the home games at Gill Coliseum and the road trips.
Athletic director said the non‑conference slate is designed to test the team, build momentum and prepare the Beavs for the rigors of conference play.
