Michelle Richardson on Friday announced the 2025 schedule which features 14 matches including 10 in the Pacific West Conference.
The Silverswords, who will be celebrating their 20th season as an intercollegiate program this season, will open with a pair of neutral site matches in Hilo; Sunday, Sept. 7 against Chico State and Friday, Sept. 12 against Westminster of Utah. They will also have their two traditional non-conference matches against their fellow Hawai'i foes, Hawai'i Pacific University on Tuesday, Sept. 16 at the Waipio Peninsula Soccer Stadium, followed by their home debut on Friday, Sept. 20 against the University of Hawai'i Hilo at Saint Louis Field.
The 'Swords open PacWest action with a two-match road trip starting Thursday, Sept. 25 at Fresno Pacific in what will likely be the final meeting between the two programs with the Sunbirds moving to the CCAA in 2026. They wrap up their trip two days later at Dominican University of California.
Chaminade's first conference home match is against HPU on Saturday, Oct. 4, the beginning of a five-match home stand, the only extended stretch at Saint Louis Field this season. Included in the home docket includes Azusa Pacific (Oct. 9), the final meeting between the two teams with APU moving to Division III next year, Biola (Oct. 11) and CUI (formerly known as Concordia University Irvine on Oct. 23). Aloha Senior Day will be on Saturday, Oct. 25 against Westmont College.
Their final three matches will be on the road; Oct. 30 at Menlo, Nov. 1 at Jessup and Nov. 6 at UH Hilo.
The PacWest Championship tournament, in its second year, will be from Nov. 13-15, in San Diego with the top four teams in the standings vying for the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.
The 'Swords have posted a program-record five straight winning seasons with a 28-21-16 mark including 20-13-12 in the PacWest since 2020.
