Akron’s softball team is starting their 2026 season with a marathon—28 consecutive road games before their home opener! The Zips will face tough opponents like Arkansas, Coastal Carolina, and Ohio State, traveling through South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, and West Virginia. Their first home game at Lee R. Jackson Field isn’t until March 20 against Miami (OH). This wild travel schedule could really test the team’s grit and bring them closer together. How do you think all this time on the road will impact their season? Would you travel to see them play? #Sports #AkronZips #Softball
