The two-time defending Ivy League Champs begin their campaign on February 20 at Mercer
NEW YORK — Columbia baseball has announced its 2026 schedule, a 41-game slate including 15 games at Robertson Field at Satow Stadium, opening with a three-game road series at Mercer from February 20–22.
The Lions face a challenging road swing against a pair of Big 12 teams coming off of NCAA Tournament appearances. Columbia opens a three-game set at Kansas State on February 27, followed by three games at West Virginia, which reached the Super Regionals in 2024, from March 6–8.
A five-game trip to Florida comes next, beginning at USF on March 13 for four games, before wrapping up at UCF on March 17.
Columbia's home schedule and Ivy League play begin against Harvard from March 21-22. The Lions then welcome Manhattan on March 26 before heading to Hanover to take on Dartmouth the weekend of March 28. The Lions close the month with the first of two matchups against Fordham on March 31 in the Bronx.
April features a seven-game home stand, starting with Penn coming to town April 4–5. A midweek visit by the Rams to close the season series is set for April 8, leading into another Ivy weekend against Princeton from April 11-12, which marks the program's alumni weekend.
The Lions will hit the road for a non-conference showdown against defending MAAC Champions Fairfield on April 14 and face Brown in Providence from April 18-19 before returning home one final time. Columbia will take on Stony Brook on April 22 and Yale from April 25-26, with the finale against the Bulldogs marking Senior Day.
Columbia closes the regular season with a road series at Cornell (May 2–3).
The top four finishers will qualify for the Ivy League Tournament, to be held May 15–18, on the campus of the regular-season champion.
Columbia is aiming for its second consecutive NCAA Regionals berth, which begins on May 29. followed by NCAA Super Regionals (June 5–8), and ultimately the College World Series in Omaha (June 12–22).
