KENOSHA, Wis. — The Parkside women's soccer program announced its 2026 schedule, with the Rangers set to play 18 regular season matches, including nine at Wood Road Field.
Parkside enters the 2026 campaign following one of its best seasons in nearly a decade. The Rangers won 10 or more matches for the first time since 2016 and advanced to the GLIAC semifinals for the second time in three seasons. After being picked to finish eighth out of nine teams in the GLIAC Preseason Coaches Poll, Parkside finished second in the conference standings and earned a home win in the GLIAC Tournament.
The Rangers will open the season on the road against Winona State on Aug. 27 at 5 p.m. Parkside opened the 2025 season against the Warriors at Wood Road Field, falling 2-1.
Parkside will then return home for its home opener against Lewis on Aug. 30 at 11 a.m. The Rangers and Flyers met last season in Romeoville, Ill., playing to a 2-2 draw.
The nonconference slate continues on Sept. 2, as Parkside travels to face Missouri-St. Louis at 1 p.m. The Rangers will then begin a six-match homestand on Sept. 4 against Concordia-St. Paul, a team Parkside faced on the road last season.
That six-match stretch at Wood Road Field will continue with Roosevelt on Sept. 11, Purdue Northwest on Sept. 13, Michigan Tech on Sept. 18, Northern Michigan on Sept. 20 and Grand Valley State on Sept. 27.
Parkside will open October with four consecutive road matches, beginning at Saginaw Valley State on Oct. 2. The Rangers will then travel to Ferris State on Oct. 4 and Grand Valley State on Oct. 9 before returning home to host Wayne State on Oct. 16. The match will mark Parkside's first meeting with Wayne State, which is entering its first season as a women's soccer program.
The Rangers will close the home portion of the regular season against Davenport on Oct. 18 at noon. Parkside will then finish the regular season with three straight road matches, traveling to Northern Michigan on Oct. 23, Michigan Tech on Oct. 25, Roosevelt on Oct. 29 and Purdue Northwest on Oct. 31.
