BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana Volleyball announced their full 2022 schedule on Wednesday afternoon. The schedule includes three road tournaments, one home tournament, and 20 Big Ten Conference matches.
Indiana will face eight opponents who were ranked in the final ACVA Coaches Poll, including defending national champions Wisconsin. They face eight who made it to the NCAA Tournament in 2021.
"We are thrilled to finally get the schedule as we prepare for the 2022 season. Our program has had a fantastic spring and so many of our young players made great strides. Our trip to Europe aided in that development and we feel good about our team heading into the fall," Head Coach Steve Aird said. "We play a very challenging pre-season, and it will test us early and often. We feel that is important to test ourselves, travel and play excellent teams on the road. The Big Ten portion of the schedule is always a challenge, but that is the beauty of playing in one of the nation's premier conferences. It is an honor to compete in the Big Ten and I know our entire program is preparing hard and understands the challenges ahead."
The Hoosiers will open the 2022 campaign with the Indiana Invitational August 26 and 27. They will play host to Indiana State, Chicago State, and Jacksonville State.
Indiana hits the road for their first away tournament of the season at Texas A&M Corpus Christi September 2 and 3 before heading to Raleigh, N.C. the following weekend. While in Raleigh the Hoosiers will face Western Carolina, TCU, and host school NC State.
They wrap up the non-conference slate in Bowling Green, Ky. September 16 and 17. While at Western Kentucky they will play Texas A&M, Tennessee Tech, and the Hilltoppers.
Shifting to the conference schedule, Indiana looks to play six Sunday matches and four Wednesday matches throughout the Big Ten tilt.
