CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – ESPN and the ACC announced Tuesday (Oct. 6) the television schedule for the 2026-27 women’s basketball season. Virginia will appear on the ESPN family of networks 15 times throughout the campaign.
Virginia’s first of two meetings with Virginia Tech (Jan. 10) is set to air on the CW. All ACC women’s basketball games distributed by the CW will also stream live on the ESPN App with an ESPN Unlimited subscription. All ACC games not selected to linear networks will be streamed on ACC Network Extra (ACCNX).
The Cavaliers are set to embark on their first season under head coach Aaron Roussell who arrives at John Paul Jones after leading Richmond to three consecutive NCAA tournament appearances.
Led by first-team All-ACC point guard Kymora Johnson, who returns for her fourth season at Virginia, the Cavaliers will look to return to postseason play after becoming the first-ever team to reach the Sweet 16 after playing in the First Four.
