The ’Bows will travel to Phoenix for a road game against Grand Canyon. The Lopes were 30-5 this past season, including an opening-round victory over 15th-ranked Saint Mary’s in the 2024 NCAA Tournament. The Lopes were 16-0 at Global Credit Union Arena last season.

After a one-year hiatus, the Rainbow Classic returns with a season-opening, four-team field. The ”Bows also play host to Weber State and Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, both of whom won 20 games last season.
