The schedule was released alongside the availability of season tickets priced at $75 each, which come with a suite of perks for fans.
A Jam‑Packed Opening Stretch
The season kicks off with six consecutive home games at the Petersen Events Center, beginning on November 3 against Saint Peter's. The early stretch also includes matchups against LIU Brooklyn, Delaware State, Charleston Southern, UMBC and Canisius before the team heads to the Christmas City Classic.

Fans can purchase season tickets through the university's online portal, where renewals are completed via account login. Ticket holders enjoy discounted game entry, the flexibility to exchange seats and exclusive post‑season access, enhancing the overall game‑day experience.
Neutral‑Site Showdown at the Christmas City Classic
Two neutral‑site games are slated for the Christmas City Classic on November 28 and 29. Pitt will face Harvard on the 28th and meet an as‑yet‑undetermined opponent on the 29th, adding a festive backdrop to the early season schedule.
Closing the Non‑Conference Chapter
The non‑conference portion wraps up with three home games against Sacred Heart on December 6, Mercyhurst on December 17 and Duquesne on December 20. These contests provide a final opportunity for the Panthers to fine‑tune before diving into conference play.
