Washburn will open the 2026-27 season Nov. 7-8 at the Small College Basketball Hall of Fame Classic in Lakeland, Fla. for the second consecutive season, facing Point Loma on Nov. 7 and West Liberty on Nov. 8 before returning to Kansas City for the Central Region Challenge Nov. 13-14 at Municipal Auditorium against Minnesota State Moorhead and Minnesota State Mankato. The Ichabods' home opener is scheduled for Nov. 24 when Southwestern College visits Lee Arena.
The Ichabods will begin MIAA play on Dec. 2 at Northwest Missouri before traveling to Missouri Western on Dec. 5 in the only regular season meetings with the Bearcats and Griffons this season.
