The University of Pennsylvania women’s squash team has released its schedule for the 2025-26 season. Head coach Jack Wyant, entering his 22nd year with the Quakers, expressed optimism about the upcoming campaign.

“The talent we have returning is impressive,” said Wyant. “I think we have an opportunity to be great if the chemistry is strong and we stay healthy. Gilly and I strongly advocated for an Ivy League Tournament, seeing how positively it impacted other Ivy sports, and we are so thankful to our administrators, Athletic Director Alanna Wren and President Jamison for their support in this endeavor. Our team is hopeful to be part of that historic event at the end of the season.”

The season begins in mid-November with away matches against Haverford, Franklin & Marshall, and Drexel. The Quakers will then host Stanford and Virginia at Penn Squash Center on November 22-23. Their final match before winter break will be at home against Georgetown on December 5.

Competition resumes in January with a road match at Trinity College. Ivy League play starts January 18 against Yale in New Haven. The College Squash Association (CSA) Individual Championships are scheduled for January 24-27 in New York City. Penn continues conference play at Columbia on January 30, followed by matches against Cornell (February 1), Princeton (February 7), Harvard (February 14), and Dartmouth (February 15). The last two regular-season Ivy contests will take place at home.

This season marks the debut of an Ivy League Tournament for women’s squash, set for February 21-22 and hosted by the regular-season champion. The top four teams from league play will qualify for this event. Afterward, teams will prepare for the CSA National Championships from March 6-9.
