Due to  the addition of Lyon College and the Mississippi University for Women, the Red Devils will take on each team in the 10-team once.

"I'm looking forward to our schedule, and all of the different challenges that we'll encounter along the way," Scragg said. "We will face a wide range of opposition this season as we work to improve our performances and results on the pitch."
