PHILADELPHIA – The University of Pennsylvania's Lois S. Leitner Head Coach of Women's Lacrosse, Karin Brower, has announced her program's schedule for the 2026 season. The Quakers will play a 15-game schedule that includes six home games, and six teams that played in the 2025 NCAA Championship are on this year's docket, including four other quarterfinalists (Florida, Johns Hopkins, Princeton, and Yale).
 
"We've got a competitive schedule ahead, and I'm excited to see what this group can accomplish," said Brower. "It's a great opportunity to challenge ourselves and grow, and I can't wait to compete with this group every step of the way."
 
The 2026 season opens with a slate of games in University City, opening the year with back-to-back home games against Drexel (Feb. 14) and Johns Hopkins (Feb. 21), followed by a quick trip to Broad Street for a midweek against Temple. Penn wraps up the month hosting Loyola Maryland (Feb. 28).
 
The Quakers hit the road for four straight contests, taking on Dartmouth, Florida, Georgetown at the USA Lacrosse Headquarters on March 15, before staying in the Old Line State to take on Maryland.
 
Penn is back home for a pair of Ivy League outings with Columbia (March 28) and Harvard (April). Road contests end with a midweek against Ivy League foe Princeton on April 8, followed by meetings at Yale and Cornell. The regular season concludes at Franklin Field with two straight matches against Towson (April 22) and Brown (April 26).
 
This year's Ivy League Tournament will take place on Friday, May 1, and Sunday, May 3, at the home of the regular-season champion.
