SPARTANBURG, S.C. – Wofford men's basketball head coach Kevin Giltner announced the 2026-27 schedule on Thursday afternoon. The team will play a full 32-game slate, featuring 16 games inside of Jerry Richardson Indoor Stadium. The schedule is split into 12 non-conference games and 20 Southern Conference matchups.
 
"I am excited about the schedule we have put together as a staff that includes historic programs like Tennessee and North Carolina," said head coach Kevin Giltner. "This year we have 16 home games, which is the most since the 2022-23 season. Playing in front of our fanbase in our beautiful arena never gets old! We have a tough schedule, but we are excited about the regional games we have with familiar teams that should excite the fan base. Adding Tennessee Tech to our league and having SoCon games as early as December 5 is a new part of our schedule as well for SoCon play. We are eager to get the guys back this fall after a productive summer to prepare for it!"
 
The Terriers will host Virginia Tech in a homecoming exhibition on Friday, October 16, at 5:00 p.m. Fans can purchase tickets here.
 
Virginia Tech head coach Mike Young returns to campus after serving 30 years on the Terrier men's basketball staff. Young led Wofford to five Southern Conference Tournament Championships and posted a 299-244 record across 17 seasons as head coach. The 2018-19 team finished the season with a 30-5 record and a perfect 18-0 mark in SoCon action.
 
"What an incredible opportunity this is for Wofford, our program, alumni, and our community to be able to host not only an ACC team like Virginia Tech, but also to welcome back Coach Young," said Giltner. "I am thrilled we could make this work, and I hope we can pack the house for a great preseason exhibition! You will not want to miss out on this special homecoming event!"
