Women's Soccer Releases 2026 Schedule

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - - Belmont University women's soccer head coach Kelsey Cameron released the program's fall schedule Wednesday. 
After posting a six-match unbeaten streak this past fall – the longest since 2022 – the Bruins will face several Top 100 programs and four NCAA Tournament teams from 2025.

Belmont returns five players who have received All-MVC recognition during their careers.

"We are excited about this year's schedule and the opportunities it presents," Cameron said. "We've added new in-region opponents we haven't faced in recent years, along with the chance to compete on the road against traditional national powers. These trips will provide anticipation and valuable experience for our team."

Following exhibition matches against Alabama A&M and North Alabama, Belmont opens regular season play Aug. 12 at Tennessee Tech. The Golden Eagles won the Ohio Valley Conference championship last season and will be making their debut in the Southern Conference in 2026.

Belmont won, 3-1, at Tennessee Tech in 2024.

After a meeting with defending SoCon tournament champion Samford, Belmont welcomes Chattanooga to E.S. Rose Park Aug. 20 for the home opener.

The non-conference is highlighted by trips to ACC stalwart and nationally-ranked Louisville Aug. 23 and a visit to Ole Miss Sept. 6.

Belmont opens MVC play Sept. 20 vs. defending MVC champion UIC.

Other notable dates include an Oct. 3 meeting with Southern Illinois, an Oct. 10 date with Evansville, and the regular season home finale Oct. 24 vs. Valparaiso.

"Our goal in building this schedule was to challenge and stretch our group as we prepare for MVC play," Cameron said. "This slate offers a variety of playing styles and competitive environments that will help us grow, learn, and be fully prepared when conference play begins."

The 2026 MVC Tournament will take place Nov. 8-15 at host sites.
