Mines will open play at home with their RMAC-opening series against Chadron State on February 17-18 before turning right back around and heading to Grand Junction to take on Colorado Mesa February 24-25.
 
As the calendar turns to March, the Orediggers host New Mexico Highlands on the first weekend of the month followed by an 11-game stretch away from home, making the short trips over to Colorado Christian March 9-10 and Regis March 16-17 before closing non-conference play against Fort Hays State in a three-game series March 19-20 over spring break.
 
Mines will return home March 23-24 to host Fort Lewis and will close the month with a trip up to Spearfish to take on Black Hills State the following weekend followed by a trip to CSU Pueblo the first weekend of April.
