2025 University of Michigan Women’s Water Polo Schedule

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — The University of Michigan water polo program and head coach Cassie Churnside announced the team’s schedule for the upcoming 2026 season.

U-M is set to host the Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) Championship from April 10-12 at Canham Natatorium to crown a conference champion.

The Wolverines are slated to start the season traveling to the West Coast three straight weekends, beginning with Polopalooza at Fresno State University (January 16-18), followed by the Arizona State University Invitational (January 24-25) and the Triton Invite at the University of California-San Diego (January 30-February 1).

Following the bye week, U-M will hold its only regular-season tournament, the Midwest Invite, at Canham Auditorium (February 14-15). The Wolverines will host competitors from the University of California-Davis, McKendree University and Mercyhurst University.

U-M will then travel to Bucknell University, competing in a CWPA Crossover (February 21-22) and to Pomona-Pitzer Colleges for the Convergence Tournament (March 6-7), with a Spring Break trip, including four non-conference opponents, scheduled between the two.

Finally, the Wolverines are set to compete in another Conference Crossover, this time at Princeton University (March 21). This will be followed by a single game against Indiana University hosted at Canham on April 4, before closing out the season with the CWPA Championship.
