Nice! 18-game double round-robin with a pretty strict adherence to a "travel partner" schedule (other than the opening week). Also, the rivalry games are on Saturdays with no other games that week. Looks pretty good to me!

I am not a fan of mirror schedules as it is currently a 4 hour round trip for me to attend games. I would prefer DH's for all except the SDSU games, which each should be held on a separate date.
I do like the set Thursday - Saturday schedule for attending games in person. However for watching games on MidcoSN, live streaming, etc., I like having conference games on as many nights as possible so I can watch more games not involving the Yotes.

I also kind of like the double headers. If I'm going to Vermillion, I'd like to see both teams play, especially on the weekends. Might as well make a day of it. Throw a basket of Leo's wings and a couple pitchers in there and that's a Saturday that's hard to beat. |

Hallelujah! This is certainly a benefit of having an even number of teams in the league. One mistake on the men's schedule I noticed was that KC never makes an appearance in Vermillion. I think that was an omission from the calendar on the first Saturday unless I missed it somewhere else.

I'm so excited to finally see a schedule with USD in the Twin Cities on it. I'll see everyone in St Paul on Jan 22 and Feb 17. I have to think St Thomas is going to see a lot of visiting fans from the Dakotas.

I don't mind mirror scheduling if it is offset a day Thursday-Saturday for one group, Friday-Sunday for the other. That way you have 4 days of games per week and fans get a chance to watch all of them (in theory). I would think the media partner would also prefer having more live-game nights? As in, why have the State-U games both on a Saturday in different locations? One could be on a Sunday.
Oh well - scheduling has been such a train wreck for the SL for so long, we should just be happy they don't have the Yotes home games only on Tuesdays played in Brookings...

I think the SL also has designs on moving the SLT to the cities at some point which I'm totally against as well. |

I think UST is a good addition, until we get more teams with consistent success like USD/SDSU schools will not be clamoring to come join us. But I’m a little bias since i live in the twin cities and am excited to cheer on the Yotes in person when they’re in St. Paul. As for the SLT, it’s in Sioux Falls until it’s forced out which sadly could happen if the state of SD isn’t careful, but different topic not for here. |
