ROCKLIN, Calif. - The Warriors are prepped and ready to launch into the 2025-2026 basketball season. High emotions are building for the upcoming year, with the thrill of Jessup now being fully postseason eligible in NCAA DII play.
The Warriors look to spring into things with all road contests to begin their season—an away season opener game on October 29th in the Bay Area to face San Jose State University. The early schedule also includes a stint with the Aggies of UC Davis on November 3rd at the University Credit Union Center. Jessup will continue their road trip in Atherton to compete in the CCAA/PacWest Challenge Tournament, set to face the Otters of CSU Monterey Bay and San Francisco State University.
The team will then return to their stomping grounds at Horton Court for the annual Bill Holtz Classic, taking place November 20th - November 22nd. Jessup will take on Bushnell and Stanislaus State University. With just a short stint on home court to begin the year, the Warriors will hit the road again for the final two nonconference games before PacWest play begins.
The Warriors will be set for short away stints in sunny SoCal in late January to early February. February also marks a six-hour flight to the Aloha State for matchups against the 808 teams of Hilo, HPU, and Chaminade. The final two regular-season home contests will be February 24th and February 28th when the Warriors return from Hawaii.
December 4th will mark the start of conference matchups, with the Warriors facing PacWest foes Point Loma Nazarene, Biola University, Menlo College, Dominican University, University of Hawaii Hilo, Hawaii Pacific University, Chaminade University, Azusa Pacific University, Fresno Pacific University, Westmont College, and Concordia Irvine. PacWest play will begin in front of a friendly home crowd at Warrior Arena on December 4th.
Under the reins of Head Coach Corey Laster, the Warriors look to dominate the PacWest and secure a postseason berth, now being fully postseason eligible for the 2025-2026 season.
