Football Opens November Against Glenville State Battling for NCAA Playoff Hopes
Wheeling, W. Va. – With the road schedule behind them, the Wheeling University Football team (5-4, 4-2) plays out the rest of their 2026 schedule at Bishop Schmitt Field. That journey includes hopes for the programs first-ever NCAA DII playoff berth, and it begins on Saturday when the Cardinals welcome in Glenville State with kick-off at 1 PM. A Wheeling win coupled with a West Liberty win against the University of Charleston would bring the 2026 Mountain East Conference (MEC) Championship match to Bishop Schmitt Field next week.
