2026 Big 12 Volleyball Schedule Released

Utes inch closer to debut under head coach Alyssa D’Errico
SALT LAKE CITY – The Big 12 released its full 2026 conference schedule, bringing Utah Volleyball closer to its debut under first-year head coach Alyssa D'Errico.
Utah finished its second season in the Big 12 with its 20th program appearance in the NCAA Tournament and will look to use that momentum to guide its venture into a new era. The Big 12 is coming off a record season as a conference with 10 total teams selected to the NCAA Tournament in 2025.
"Our Big 12 Conference schedule is going to challenge us in every possible way, and that's exactly what makes it so exciting," said D'Errico. "Every night you're facing well-coached teams that are physical, disciplined, and prepared, which demands a high level of consistency and resilience from our group. I'm incredibly proud of the competitive offseason this team has embraced and the culture they've continued to build—one that's rooted in toughness, connection, and a genuine love for the game. I'm excited for our team to step on to the court and show a style of play that's not only competitive, but fun, and truly reflects who we are and what we've worked so hard to become."
The Utes return two-time All-American honorable mention outside hitter Kamryn Gibadlo for her senior year along with fellow outside hitters Devyn Wiest, and Levani Key-Powell, middle blockers Katelynn Field and Lana Mijacic, libero McKenna Payne, and setter Isabelle Marco. Additionally, the Utes will welcome back to the court outside/opposite hitters Ashley West and Olga Musial who have been sidelined with injuries in previous seasons. Utah will also introduce fans to one freshman (Suttyn Harris) and three transfers (Izzy Mogridge, Loryn Helgesen, and Sierra Grizzle).
