Women's college basketball: Islanders unveil 2021-22 schedule
Texas A&M-Corpus Christi released its 2021-22 women's basketball schedule on Tuesday, its first season in a smaller Southland Conference.
The Islanders will face the seven other conference foes in a double round-robin scheduling format.
New this year is the Southland Conference Classic in which all eight conference teams meet in Katy in a tournament format over three days, Jan. 3-5 before conference play begins.
In non-conference play, Royce Chadwick's squad is set to face Texas A&M, Tulane, Houston and Pacific in marquee matchups.
The Islanders also have their traditional home-and-home series in the South Texas Showdown with UTRGV and will travel to the Denver Classic in late November for a pair of games.
Southland Conference play begins Jan. 15 at home against UIW. The Southland Conference Tournament returns to the Merrell Center March 9-12.
The Islanders are coming off a 6-13 season.
