Season Opener on the Big Screen
The 2026 women's soccer season for Wake Forest begins with a marquee home match against Louisiana State University on August 12, a game that will be broadcast nationally on the ACC Network. The kickoff is set for 8 p.m., marking the first of three high‑profile contests that will be televised live this season.
A Trio of Ranked Battles
In addition to the LSU opener, the Demon Deacons will meet two more top‑ten opponents on their home turf. Florida State, currently ranked No. 4, arrives on October 15 at 6 p.m., followed by a clash with North Carolina, the No. 8 team, on October 18 at 3:30 p.m. All three ACC matchups are slated for national television, underscoring the growing visibility of the program.
Home Field Advantage
Wake Forest has built a formidable reputation at Spry Stadium, where the team has gone unbeaten for 15 consecutive matches over the past two seasons. The 2025 regular season ended with an 8‑0‑3 home record, extending a program‑wide unbeaten streak that began in 2024. The stadium, located in Winston‑Salem, North Carolina, serves as the backdrop for every home fixture this year.
Ticket Details and Fan Access
Fans can attend preseason and regular‑season games at Walt Chyzowych Alumni Hill free of charge. For non‑conference contests, reserved seating is priced at $15, while general admission in the bleachers costs $10 for youth and adults alike. ACC games carry a slightly higher price structure, with adult general admission at $15, youth tickets at $10, and reserved seats at $20.
Key Player Spotlight
Junior forward Lola Ressler continues to be a focal point of the offense. She recorded her first career goal in a 1‑0 victory over LSU in 2025, a moment that helped cement her role as a key attacking threat. Ressler’s development will be closely watched as the team faces increasingly competitive opponents.
