The No. 1 UConn Huskies will start their 2025/26 season against the No. 20 Louisville Cardinals in the Armed Forces Classic.
NCAA basketball is back, and this match will be the first-ever women's edition of college basketball's military-site showdown.
"It's going to be a lot of learning with five new players," Huskies head coach Geno Auriemma said. "There's a lot of exciting things that are ahead of us… and I want to help them overcome some of those challenges we're going to have."
The Huskies open their season against a ranked opponent for the first time since 2017.
