EUGENE, Ore. – Defending Big Ten champion Oregon will play 11 of its first 15 games against teams that made the NCAA Tournament a year ago, including Tennessee, Texas A&M, Kentucky, Clemson, Duke and Stanford.
The Ducks' 2026 schedule features 23 home games, including two tournaments at Jane Sanders Stadium. Big Ten teams visiting Eugene this season are Penn State, Iowa, Washington and Ohio State. Oregon and Oregon State will also play twice at The Jane in 2026.
General admission season tickets for 2026 are on sale now. Reserved season tickets are sold out. Single-game tickets will go on sale in January.
Highlighted by a rematch against Tennessee, the season gets underway at the NFCA Leadoff Classic Feb. 6-8 in Clearwater, Fla. The Ducks will face Missouri in the opener followed by games with Clemson, Liberty, Tennessee and Southeastern Louisiana. The Ducks defeated the Lady Vols, 1-0, in an eight-inning classic at the Mary Nutter tournament last season. Oregon will also play Liberty in Clearwater in a rematch of 2025's NCAA Eugene Super Regional, won by Oregon, two games to none. Missouri is lone opponent at the NFCA Leadoff Classic that did not play in the 2025 NCAA Tournament.
The next week, the Ducks will visit Stanford to help open the Cardinal's new Stanford Softball Stadium at the Feb. 13-15 Cardinal Classic. In addition to the host team, Oregon will play Cal State Fullerton, Cal Poly and Kentucky (twice). Oregon and Stanford squared off in the 2025 NCAA Eugene Regional, with the Ducks winning two elimination games against the Cardinal to advance. Kentucky was also in the 2025 NCAA field.
The last of three straight tournaments away from Eugene is the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic in Cathedral City, Calif., where the Ducks will face Auburn and Texas A&M on Feb. 19, South Carolina and Cal State Fullerton on Feb. 20 and Duke on Feb. 21. The three SEC teams and Duke all played in the 2025 NCAA Tournament.
The Ducks open the home season with a doubleheader on Feb. 27 against Stetson and Idaho State on the first day of the Oregon Classic, which also features Samford.
After a nonconference midweek game at Oregon State on March 4, the Beavers make the return trip to Eugene for the Jane Sanders Classic, March 6-8. The Ducks will also play Nevada and Sacramento State at the Jane Sanders Classic.
Oregon opens Big Ten play at home with a three-game series against Penn State, March 13-15. The Big Ten moved to three-game series for all weekends in 2026, meaning teams will play 24 conference games, two more than a year ago.
The Ducks will spend spring break in the Midwest. Oregon visits Purdue March 20-22 and will play a single nonconference game at Indiana on March 23. The game with the Hoosiers marks the first of 13 versus 2025 NCAA Tournament teams that the Ducks will play in their final 20 contests.
The second weekend of the break finds the Ducks at Northwestern March 27-29.
The Ducks kickoff April with a home series against Iowa April 3-5, before making the first of two trips to College Park, Md., for a series at Maryland, April 10-11. The Terrapins are also hosting the Big Ten Tournament.
Oregon then wraps up the home portion of the schedule with a seven-game homestand that includes three games with Washington (April 17-19), a midweek game against Oregon State (April 24) and a series with Ohio State (April 24-26).
The Ducks will celebrate 60 years of softball and 10 seasons at Jane Sanders Stadium during the series against the Huskies.
Oregon visits UCLA May 1-3 to close out the regular season as the back half of the Big Ten slate is loaded with 2025 NCAA qualifiers Northwestern, Washington, Ohio State and the Bruins.
Following the May 6-9 Big Ten Tournament at Maryland, NCAA Regionals will be played May 15-17, with the Super Regional Round a week later.
The Women's College World Series returns to Oklahoma City May 28-June 6.
First-time opponents for the Ducks on the 2026 schedule include Duke, Stetson and Samford.
Television and streaming broadcast information will be announced at a later date.
