This will be the first time Campbell will face off against either opponent. Cal Baptist makes the trek to the east coast as a new member of the revived Pac-12. Midfielder Stavros Charalampous, forward Blake D'Agostino and defender William Lawson were each named to the Mac Hermann Preseason Watch List.
 
Seton Hall also boasts multiple players on preseason watch lists. Midfielder Til Kauschke was named the Preseason BIG EAST Midfielder of the Year and to the Mac Hermann Watchlist, and forward Mikkel Lejbowicz is on the Mac Hermann Watchlist and the Preseason All-BIG EAST Team.
 
CU opens the new season with fresh faces across the board, including a new boss in head coach Ricky Davey. The first-year skipper comes to Buies Creek after serving as the associate head coach at Mercer last season. In addition to his success at the collegiate level, Davey has also proven to be a winning coach in the Atlanta United Academy program with its U14 and U19 squads.
 
Returning midfielder Xander Martin was named to the All-CAA Preseason Team as an honorable mention. He is one of the few returning faces, as the Camels welcome 18 newcomers.
 
The Camels rank second among all Division I teams in total minutes lost from the 2025 season (18,783) and percentage of minutes lost (94.9%).
