The Wisconsin Badgers announced a big update to the 2026 volleyball schedule.

Instead of playing Purdue at their usual home, the 2,288-seat Holloway Gymnasium, the match has been moved to Mackey Arena.

For reference, the Boilermakers' men's basketball games are played there. From time to time, Purdue will move a volleyball match, and ticket demand made this decision a no-brainer. Mackey Arena can sit 14,876 fans.

Wisconsin continually finds itself near the top of the Big Ten with their win-loss record and in attendance.

West Lafayette, Indiana, is a casual four-hour drive from Madison, which most Badgers fans will make on Sept. 27 for this conference contest.
