We’re slowly getting closer to Penn State sports, folks.

Penn State women’s volleyball released its promotional schedule for the upcoming 2026 season. The seven-game schedule includes a few annual events returning, including Dig Pink on October 3 against Iowa and a White Out on Halloween against Purdue.

The Nittany Lions will begin their promotional schedule against Ohio on September 12 with a second-annual Team Ream match. The event was made to honor former Penn State football player Brandon Ream.

Following that will come a “Keep It In PA” match against Villanova on September 15, a Beach Bash-themed match versus USF on September 18, and, to round off a busy week, a pre-match block party ahead of the match against Tennessee on September 20.

The promotional schedule will resume on October 3 for the Dig Pink match against Iowa. The event is held in partnership with The Side-Out Foundation to raise awareness for breast cancer.

Three days later, on October 9 against Northwestern, Penn State women’s volleyball will team up with the V Foundation to host its annual THON match.

To round off the promotional schedule, the Nittany Lions will take on Ohio State for its Military Appreciation Night on October 29 and Purdue on Halloween for its White Out.

Penn State women’s volleyball is looking to advance further this season, as they finished 19-13 last season.
