The 126-game slate begins on Wednesday, Dec. 2 with 12 programs taking the court. The opening day will feature six matchups, followed by a showdown between Saint Joseph’s and reigning A10 champion Rhode Island on Thursday, Dec. 3.
 
For the ninth straight year, every league home game will be available to viewers through the league’s three media partners—ESPN, CBS Sports, and USA Network—either on television or through streaming platforms. The 2026-27 campaign marks the third year of a five-year agreement with all three partners.
 
“Our three television partners, CBS Sports, ESPN, and USA Sports, continue to spotlight our tremendous women’s basketball programs through a strong schedule that celebrates marquee matchups and remarkable rivalries,” A10 Commissioner Dan Leibovitz said. “We are thrilled for the season ahead.”
 
After streaming the first two rounds of the 2027 Betterment Atlantic 10 Women’s Basketball Tournament on ESPN+ and the ESPN App, the final seven games of the event will be nationally televised. All four quarterfinal games will air on USA Network on Friday, March 5, with both semifinal matchups televised on CBS Sports Network on Saturday, March 6.
