Fall 2026 Sports Ramping Up

By Pulse Staff

Fall sports teams have a big challenge this year: to see if they can top last year. University of Findlay women’s volleyball finished last year 24-6 over all and 13-2 in conference play. Oiler Football has been selected third in the 2026 Great Midwest Athletic Conference (G-MAC) Coaches Poll after winning a share of the conference title with Ashland University last year and hosting a playoff game.

The UF men’s soccer team was selected fourth in the 2026 G-MAC Coaches Poll. Last year the team finished 9-6-4 overall and 8-3-3 in the G-MAC and made it to the semi-finals in the conference tournament.

The Oiler women’s soccer team was selected third for the second consecutive season in the G-MAC Coaches Poll. Last year the team finished 12-4-4 and made it to the championship game where it fell to Ashland University.
