PHILADELPHIA – Penn Athletics and the W. Joseph Blood Head Coach for Baseball John Yurkow are pleased to announce the schedule for the 2026 baseball season.

"We're excited to announce our 2026 schedule," Yurkow said. "Road series against Texas A&M, Mercer, and ECU will prepare us to compete for an Ivy League title and postseason bid. The goal remains to continue to elevate the program and build on our recent success, and I am confident that with our returning letterwinners and a talented incoming class, we will have the opportunity to do just that."

The season begins February 20-22 at Texas A&M for a three-game series, followed by a three-game stop at Mercer from February 27 to March 1. It will be a return trip to College Station where Penn took the series from the Aggies in 2022 on its way to an Ivy League championship.

Penn will return to Philadelphia for its spring home opening series against UMBC on March 7-8. The Quakers will also face Delaware (home), Rutgers (away), and East Carolina (away) during the spring break stretch. ECU won the American Athletic Conference Tournament and reached the NCAA Conway Regional final last spring, falling to national runner-up Coastal Carolina.

Following spring break, Penn will host Lehigh and then begin Ivy League play with a series against Dartmouth at Tommy Lasorda Field at Meiklejohn Stadium, before traveling to face Yale and Delaware State (Liberty Bell Classic First Round) to conclude the month of March.

April will see matchups against Columbia (away), Lafayette or Villanova in the Liberty Bell Classic Second Round, Cornell (home), Monmouth (away), Princeton (away), Villanova (away), and Harvard (away). The regular season concludes with a three-game home series against Brown on May 1-2.

The fourth-annual Ivy League Tournament will take place May 15-17, hosted by the regular-season champion. The NCAA regionals are set to occur May 29 to June 1.

Penn welcomes back five All-Ivy players, including Jarrett Pokrovsky and Marty Coyne, who were unanimous first-team selections in 2025. Gavin Collins (first team), Davis Baker (second team), and Nick Spaventa (honorable mention) also return.
