Big Ten Announces 2025 Volleyball Schedule

COLLEGE PARK, MD -- The Maryland Volleyball program announced its 2025 Big Ten schedule as released by the conference on Wednesday.

"The release of the Big Ten volleyball schedule is always an exciting moment, but this year feels especially significant," said Head Coach Adam Hughes. "With the defending national champion in Penn State and eight NCAA Tournament teams from last year, the depth of this conference is as strong as ever."

The Terrapins will open their 20-match conference slate with three consecutive road match-ups. Maryland begins the season on Thursday, Sept. 25, against Iowa, followed by a trip to Nebraska on Saturday, Sept. 27. The Terps then head to New Jersey for a match against Rutgers on Friday, Oct. 3.

Maryland kicks off October with four consecutive home contests, starting with a visit from defending national champion Penn State on Sunday, Oct. 5. The Terps will then host Illinois on Friday, Oct. 10, followed by Wisconsin on Sunday, Oct. 12. They wrap up the home stand on Wednesday, Oct. 15 with a second matchup against Rutgers.

The Terps will travel to East Lansing to take on Michigan State on Sunday, Oct. 19 before heading to the West Coast. There, they will face USC on Thursday, Oct. 23 and UCLA on Saturday, Oct. 25.

"We're thrilled for our first-ever trips to UCLA and USC, expanding our reach in this new era of Big Ten volleyball," said Hughes. "With the possibility that this could be the final season of the 20-match conference slate, every match carries a little extra weight."

Maryland wraps up October with a home matchup against Indiana on Friday, Oct. 31.

The Terps open November with a trip to the Midwest to face Northwestern on Sunday, Nov. 2. They return home for back-to-back matches against Ohio State on Friday, Nov. 7 and Michigan on Saturday, Nov. 8.

Maryland then hits the road for back-to-back contests, playing Purdue on Friday, Nov. 14 and Indiana on Sunday, Nov. 16.

The Terps close out the final month of conference play with a home match against Minnesota on Friday, Nov. 21, followed by a road trip to State College to face Penn State on Sunday, Nov. 23. Maryland concludes the regular season with home matches against Washington on Wednesday, Nov. 26 and Oregon on Friday, Nov. 28.
