FORT WAYNE, Ind. - Purdue Fort Wayne women's volleyball head coach Steve Florio has announced his program's schedule for 2025.
The season opens with an exhibition at Western Michigan on August 21. The first three weeks of the regular season will see the Mastodons on the road, visiting Butler, Eastern Michigan and Missouri State. At Butler (Aug. 29-30), the 'Dons will play Middle Tennessee, the host Bulldogs, and Evansville. At Eastern Michigan (Sept. 4-5), Purdue Fort Wayne will square off against Valparaiso, EMU and Niagara. The 'Dons' trip to Missouri State will not be a tournament, but will have two matches against the Bears just outside of senior Jena Medearis' hometown.
The Mastodons will host their annual Purdue Fort Wayne Invitational on September 19-20, when Mercyhurst, Bellarmine and Toledo come to the Arnie Ball Court.
Horizon League play features nine matches at home and nine away, alternating home and road sites. The 'Dons will host Robert Morris (Sept. 26-27), Green Bay (Oct. 3-4), Cleveland State (Oct. 17-18), IU Indy (Oct. 28) and Wright State (Nov. 7-8). Purdue Fort Wayne will hit the road for matches at IU Indy (Sept. 30), Oakland (Oct. 10), Northern Kentucky (Oct. 24-25), Milwaukee (Oct. 31-Nov. 1) and Youngstown State (Nov. 13-14).
The top six teams in the final standings will earn a berth to the Horizon League Championship (Nov. 21-23). The 'Dons earned the No. 5 seed last season.
