Baseball starts the season off on a 16-game road trip in southern Ohio and Kentucky, before playing four more road games in Michigan. 93% of baseball's wins last year came within their conference so the team will look to continue to build upon their conference success. Baseball's season is 50 games long, the lengthiest schedule out of all Lourdes sports teams.

Softball's home games are also all doubleheaders against all conference opponents. Softball's team will once again be playing at Gray Wolf Field in Sylvania. Softball has 33 games total on their schedule. The Gray Wolves start the year on Feb. 22 on the road against Oakland before heading to Florida for their annual Spring Break Tournament. A quick road doubleheader against Ohio Christian follows the spring games and then the team goes right into their home schedule. Softball ended the year off strong, sweeping Rochester Christian and winning three of their last six games.

The Gray Wolves men's volleyball team is 4-1 to start the season with two wins against top-15 teams. There's a possibility that they're ranked in the next top-15 NAIA poll and they're 1-0 so far in the WHAC schedule. The team still has eight home matches left, including three next week, all against conference opponents.

M/W Basketball Remaining Home Schedule
Date                                  Opponent                                                    Time (s)
February 11th                Indiana Tech                                     5:30 PM, 7:30 PM
February 21^st                Siena Heights                                   5:30 PM, 7:30 PM
 
The men's and women's basketball programs have two home games remaining in their very successful seasons. The men's team is currently 17-6 and tied for 3^rd place in the WHAC. A win over Indiana Tech could potentially move them into a two or three-way tie for second place. The women's team just broke the program record for wins in a single regular season with their 19^th coming against Rochester Christian last night. The women are one game out of first place in the conference and would be tied for first place if they beat ranked Indiana Tech. Both teams are currently in a position to host the first round of the WHAC Tournament which takes place on Feb. 25^th and Feb. 26.
 
Cheer & Dance Preview
The Gray Wolves cheer and dance programs host no competitions but are excelling at away events thus far. Fresh off the heels of their 2025 WHAC Tournament Championship season, the cheer team started the year off with a 2^nd-place finish at Rochester Christian. They came back to Siena Heights the following week and won the competition with an impressive score of 84.85. Cheer has two events at Madonna over the next two weekends and a competition at Spring Arbor on Feb. 21 left on their schedule.
Meanwhile, the dance team placed second at their debut competition in Marian, Ind. The Gray Wolves scored an 87.33, the best score since the program's reinstatement in the 2022-2023 season and the 4^th-best score in school history. The dance team also competes at Madonna this Saturday, as well as a Valentine's Day competition at Aquinas. Both programs' WHAC Championships take place on March 7.
 
E-Sports Preview
The E-Sports team is 0-2 to start their season. Their schedule has not completely been finalized yet by the directors but they'll certainly be facing Lawrence Tech the week of Feb. 9, Saint Xavier (Ill.) the week of Feb. 16, and Siena Heights the week of Feb. 23. Despite dropping the first two matches, E-Sports has a promising future to the season with six of their eight players on this year's team being returners from last year's roster.   
 
M/W Bowling Preview
The Gray Wolves bowling seasons are in full swing with just a few competitions left before the WHAC Championships take place on Feb. 21. Both teams qualified for the championships after stellar performances in the fourth and final regular season WHAC open. Remaining events include this Saturday's AHBA Roseland Lanes Collegiate Open, the Hoosier Classic on Valentine's weekend, and a possible run at sectionals in the first weekend of March.
 
M/W Wrestling Preview
The Gray Wolves' wrestling programs both finish the regular season receiving votes in the latest NAIA poll. They have both been battle tested this year, playing dozens of ranked teams across several tournaments and duals. The men's WHAC Championships take place on Valentine's Day at Indiana Tech. Meanwhile, the women's Mid-South Conference Championships take place in Bowling Green, Ky. On Feb. 20.
