Notre Dame, Oregon highlight CSU volleyball opponents in 2025

The Colorado State volleyball program is once again set to face a challenging nonconference slate in 2025.

The Rams are known for hosting and playing against high-profile opponents and the upcoming season will be no different.

CSU is coming off a 20-11 season where the Rams won the Mountain West and made the 2024 NCAA Tournament.

In 2025, CSU’s nonconference schedule features four Power 4 opponents (five total matches). The Rams will play Oregon (Big Ten) and Colorado (Big 12) on the road, while hosting Colorado, Washington (Big Ten) and Notre Dame (ACC) at Moby Arena.

CSU faces three teams that made the 2024 NCAA Tournament in Oregon, Washington and Colgate. Oregon made the Sweet 16 and finished last season ranked No. 10 in the nation in the coaches poll. CSU also begins with an exhibition against a Creighton team that made the Elite Eight and finished 2024 ranked No. 6.

The 2025 season is also CSU’s last in the Mountain West. The first MW match of the season is at Wyoming and the final home match for the Rams as a MW member is against Wyoming.
