Southern Conference releases 2025-26 men’s basketball league schedule

SPARTANBURG, S.C. – The Southern Conference released its 2025-26 men's basketball league schedule Tuesday morning as VMI prepares for an exciting season on the hardwood.
 
The Keydets begin conference play at home with two consecutive games at Cameron Hall on New Year's Day and January 3 against Samford and Chattanooga, respectively. The following week, the Keydets hit the road to face ETSU (Jan.7) and Furman (Jan. 10).

From January 15 through January 21, VMI will host three straight games beginning with Mercer (Jan. 15) before facing rival The Citadel (Jan. 17) and closing with UNCG on Wednesday, January 21.
 
Continuing the pattern, the Keydets will then be on the road for three straight contests from January 24-31 beginning with Western Carolina before taking on The Citadel in Charleston, South Carolina, and playing at Mercer January 31 in Macon, Georgia.
 
The month of February brings Wofford to town on February 4 followed by a visit from ETSU on Saturday, February 7. VMI will travel to Greensboro, North Carolina, on February 11 to face UNCG before returning home for a Valentine's Day meeting with Furman.
 
Only two weeks removed from hosting Wofford, VMI then travels to Spartanburg for a return visit with the Terriers on February 18 before hosting Western Carolina Saturday, February 21.
 
VMI concludes the regular season on the road February 26-28 at Samford and Chattanooga, closing the league slate against the two schools it began league play against in January.
 
The 2026 Ingles Southern Conference Basketball Tournament will take place March 5-9 at Harrah's Cherokee Center in Asheville, North Carolina, where VMI will again look to make a deep run into the conference tournament after making it to the semifinals in 2025.
 
Tip-off times for all league games will be announced at a later date.
