The Lindenwood Men's Soccer Team has released their 2026 schedule on Monday morning. The Lions are coming off a 2025 season in which they became the first team in school history to qualify for a Division I National Tournament, and also captured their first regular season  conference championship in the D1 Era.

Lindenwood will open up the season at home on August 20 with a matchup against Chicago State, followed by their first road game of the season four days later on August 24 at IU Indy. The Black and Gold will wrap up the first month of the season with a home match against Blackburn College on Aug. 26 and a road match at Wright State on Aug. 30.

Following the Wright State matchup, the Lions will stay on the road to kick off September with a match at Butler on Sept. 4, and will return home for two straight home games against Evansville (Sept.11) and Tulsa (Sept.15). The final non conference matchup of the regular season will occur on Sept. 20 when the squad will travel to Seattle, with the first conference match scheduled for six days later on Sept. 26 at UTRGV, the newest members of the Ohio Valley Conference for Men's Soccer.

The month of October will feature four straight home games all coming against OVC opponents which includes Incarnate Word (Oct. 1), Houston Christian (Oct. 4), UTRGV (Oct. 8), and Western Illinois (Oct.11). The matchup with Houston Christian on October 4 will mark the first time the two teams have met since the OVC Tournament Championship Game on November 15, 2025.

The rest of the schedule features four out of the last five games occurring on the road with matches at SIUE (Oct. 15), Southern Indiana (Oct. 18), Houston Christian (Oct. 29), and Incarnate Word (Nov. 1).
