September 15, 2026 | Men's Basketball
PRINCETON, N.J. – The Princeton men's basketball team announced its 2026-27 schedule Tuesday morning.
With the entire 2025-26 Tiger squad returning, the 2026-27 slate features 13 matchups in Jadwin and 14 games against opponents who saw postseason play last March, including four who made the big dance.
The Tigers will open the season at home on Nov. 2 as they host Carnegie Mellon, before hosting 2026 NCAA Tournament qualifier Hofstra on Nov. 5.
Princeton will make its first road trip of the season on Nov. 8, paying a visit to 2026 MAAC Tournament champion and NCAA qualifier Siena.
The Tigers will return home to welcome Stony Brook (Nov. 11), before traveling to Rhode Island (Nov. 15). Fellow Jersey rival Monmouth will visit Jadwin on Nov. 20, following a 2026 NIT Second-Round appearance. That will be a kickoff to a road swing for the Orange and Black as the Tigers will then hit the road for a series of five games.
Princeton will spend Thanksgiving weekend down in Wilmington, N.C. for the Seahawk Classic (Nov. 25-28), where it will face Liberty, St. Thomas and host, UNCW, who also made the NIT Second Round last season.
Heading up to New England, the Tigers will make stops at Vermont (Dec. 3) and Northeastern (Dec. 6) before returning home. With finals looming, the Tigers will host Bryant & Stratton College (Dec. 8) and make a trip to LIU (Dec. 12) before breaking for exams.
Closing out non-conference action, Princeton will host Temple on Dec. 22. The Tigers will take a New Year's trip out to the West Coast to face another 2026 NCAA Tournament team, St. Mary's, on Dec. 29.
Charging into 2027, Princeton will open Ivy play by welcoming defending Ivy Tournament champion Penn to Jadwin on Jan. 4.
The Tigers will pay a visit to Yale (Jan. 9) before returning to Princeton for a pair of conference home games against Dartmouth (Jan. 16) and Harvard (Jan. 18). A trip to Brown (Jan. 22) and visits from Columbia (Jan. 29) and Cornell (Jan. 30) will round out the month of January.
