GREENVILLE, S.C. -- The Furman women's basketball team announced its full
2025-26 schedule on Thursday, which includes 16 home dates at the newly renovated Timmons Arena.
Â
The Paladins open the campaign on Friday, Nov. 3 when they play host to North Greenville in the first regular season contest in Timmons.Â
Following road contests against Southeastern Conference powers Georgia (Nov. 6) and Vanderbilt (Nov. 10), Furman will return home to face Georgia State (Nov. 13) and Campbell (Nov. 16). After a trip to Radford (Nov. 19), the Paladins will take on Clemson (Nov. 23) in Timmons Arena, marking the first Tigers' first visit to Greenville to face Furman since the 2015-16 season when the Paladins recorded a 70-49 win.
"We're incredibly excited to showcase the new Timmons Arena and play host to Clemson in late November," said head coach
Pierre Curtis, who is entering his third season at the program's helm. "That will be one of several really attractive home games for us, in addition to a challenging Southern Conference schedule, particularly in February when we play a number of games at home."
A clash against UNC Asheville (Nov. 29) will wrap up the Paladins' November slate.
Six games dot Furman's December schedule, including home contests versus Presbyterian (Dec. 3), Mars Hill (Dec. 14), and Brevard (Dec. 30), and a trio of challenging road assignments at Georgia Southern (Dec. 7), Charleston Southern (Dec. 19), and Florida (Dec. 28).
Furman tips off the new year in Timmons against Bob Jones (Jan. 3) and then dives into its 14-game SoCon schedule, beginning with a pair of road clashes with East Tennessee State (Jan. 8) and Chattanooga (Jan. 10).
Reigning SoCon champion UNC Greensboro (Jan. 15) will provide the opposition in the Paladins' first SoCon contest in Timmons, followed two days later by Western Carolina (Jan. 17).
Road games against Mercer (Jan. 22), Samford (Jan. 24), and Wofford (Jan. 31) complete Furman's January slate before the Paladins play five of their final seven regular contests at home, beginning with Chattanooga (Feb. 5) and East Tennessee State (Feb. 7). Â After trips to Western Carolina (Feb. 12) and UNC Greensboro (Feb. 14), Furman concludes the regular season with a trio of home clashes against Samford (Feb. 19), Mercer (Feb. 21), and Wofford ( Feb. 28).
The 2026 SoCon Tournament is scheduled for March 5-8 at Harrah's Cherokee Center Asheville in Asheville, N.C.
On August 25, Furman unveiled the new Timmons Arena, which underwent a $40 million renovation to turn the facility into one of the premier mid-major college basketball venues in the country. The renovation project, led by Ken Betsch & Associates and Harper General Contractors, was donor-funded with businessman and philanthropist Ravenel B. Curry III, a 1963 Furman graduate, providing the lead gift of $10 million to spearhead the project that was also generously supported by the Timmons and Pelham families in honor of their family's original commitment to the arena in 1997.Â
