Owings Mills, Md. (December 8) – The Stevenson University men's volleyball team has announced its 2026 schedule, featuring a competitive slate highlighted by five home tri-matches, the annual Mustang Classic, and several key Middle Atlantic Conference (MAC) battles.

The Mustangs open the campaign on January 22 when they host Marymount University inside Owings Mills Gymnasium. Stevenson then welcomes Randolph (Lynchburg) and Kean University two days later (Jan. 24) for the season's first tri-match.

Home fans will have plenty of chances to see the Mustangs early in the season, with seven of their first nine matches in Owings Mills, including dates against Lancaster Bible (Jan. 29) and Elizabethtown (Feb. 5). Stevenson will also host Neumann and Eastern Mennonite on February 7 as part of another home tri-match.

The Mustang Classic returns on February 13–14, bringing a strong field to campus, including Southern Virginia, Mount Union (Ohio), Randolph-Macon, and Nichols (Mass.). The Mustangs will play Southern Virginia and Mount Union over the two-day event.

Conference play heats up in late February as Stevenson hosts Misericordia (Feb. 28) and Widener (Mar. 4) before another home tri-match with Penn State Schuylkill and Cairn on March 7.

The Mustangs then embark on a crucial March road stretch, facing Wilson (Mar. 11), Juniata (Mar. 14), and Arcadia (Mar. 18). Stevenson closes out the regular season with key MAC matchups against Messiah (Mar. 25), Stevens (Mar. 28), Eastern (Apr. 1), and a tri-match at King's (Pa.) with Wilkes on April 4.

In total, Stevenson will play 27 regular-season matches, including 12 at home, as they look to build on last year's strong campaign and make another push in MAC play.
 
The MAC Commonwealth Tournament will begin on Tuesday, April 7 and a champion will be crowned on Saturday, April 11. The higher seeded team will be named the host in each round, and the winner of the MAC  title will earn the league's automatic berth to the NCAA Division III Men's Volleyball Tournament.
