SAN RAMON, Calif. – Gearing up for its launch as a new Pac-12, the league today announced its 2026 Fall Olympic Sports schedules including intraconference schedules and championships information for men's soccer. Non-conference action for the new league begins with men's soccer in early August.  Notably, the new league will be introducing championship events for men's soccer for the first time in its 110-year history. The Gonzaga men's soccer team will open with a home game against Cal Baptist on Sept. 30 and conclude the conference slate on the road on Oct. 31 at Oregon State.

Further details including event start times and how to watch will be announced at a later date ahead of the season. 

As previously announced in March, the Pac-12 announced a collaborative partnership with the Big West which allows California Baptist, Cal Poly, UC Riverside and UC San Diego to compete as affiliate members in Pac-12 men's soccer beginning in the 2026-27 season, joining full members Gonzaga, Oregon State and San Diego State. As part of this agreement, each Pac-12 school (including the affiliates) will have three "Big West Crossover" games in October against remaining Big West opponents, overlapping with Pac-12 conference play.

These seven members have combined for eight NCAA Tournament appearances over the last five seasons with Oregon State reaching the postseason in six straight years including finishing runner up for the College Cup in 2023. The top 4 teams qualify for the first ever Pac-12 Championship with the semifinals occurring on Saturday, November 7th on the campuses of the highest seed in each matchup with the final happening the next weekend (Friday, November 13 or Saturday, November 14) with again the highest seed hosting.
