Utah State Announces 2026 Women’s Basketball Nonconference Slate Ahead of Pac‑12 Debut

Coach Wesley Brooks reveals a 15‑game schedule that blends home openers at the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum with a demanding road trip across the West Coast.

Utah State women's basketball coach Wesley Brooks has unveiled the 2026 nonconference slate, a 15‑game roadmap that sets the stage for the program’s first season in the Pac‑12. The schedule is designed to sharpen the team’s depth and experience as it prepares for the rigors of conference play.

Home openers at the Spectrum

The Aggies will begin the campaign with two consecutive home games at the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum. They host Westminster on November 2 and Loyola Marymount on November 6, giving fans an early chance to see the new-look roster in action.

After the initial home stand, the team travels to Los Angeles for its first road test against USC on November 8. A brief two‑game home stretch against Idaho State and Bethune‑Cookman follows before the squad heads to Provo to meet BYU on November 18.

California tournament and beyond

The nonconference schedule includes a two‑game tournament hosted by UC Irvine on November 27‑28, where the Aggies will face off against regional opponents in a high‑intensity environment. The road trip continues with a December 1 game at Utah, followed by a home contest against San Jose State on December 5.

Later in the month, Utah State will host Utah Valley on December 9 and Weber State on December 12, then close the nonconference portion with a December 16 visit to Idaho and a final home game against San Diego on December 19. The full Pac‑12 slate, along with television broadcast details and tip times, will be announced at a later date.
