Siena Women's Basketball Unveils 2026‑27 Metro Conference Schedule

The Saints have released their full slate for the upcoming 2026‑27 season, a 20‑game journey that blends home comforts with challenging road trips across the Northeast.

The season kicks off on December 19 with a road test at Merrimack, followed two days later by a much‑anticipated home opener against Quinnipiac at the UHY Center, where fans will get their first glimpse of the new roster.

Head coach Terry Primm, now in his second year, will guide a squad that returns four starters, including reigning MAAC Rookie of the Year Francesca Schiro, while welcoming nine fresh faces who will add depth and versatility.

Key matchups pepper the calendar: a rematch with Iona on January 1 renews the historic I‑87 rivalry, a home clash with Fairfield on December 29 marks the first meeting of the season, and the regular‑season finale sees the Saints travel to face Marist on February 27 before closing at home against Manhattan on February 25.

The schedule also features a balanced mix of opponents, with eight foes meeting twice and four meeting once, ensuring a varied competitive landscape as the team aims for the Metro Conference championship.

Championship Weekend in Atlantic City

The 2027 Metro Conference Women's Basketball Championship is set for March 4‑8 in Atlantic City, New Jersey, where the Saints will join the league's top teams in pursuit of a coveted title and an automatic berth to the NCAA tournament.

With a blend of experienced leadership, dynamic newcomers and a demanding but exciting slate, Siena's women's basketball program looks poised to make a strong push toward the postseason and bring further pride to the university community.
