Mines opens play on Friday, October 31, at 8:00 PM CT against No. 2–ranked University of Kansas. On Saturday, November 1st, 12:30 PM CT Mines will showdown against top-seeded Grand Canyon University. The Orediggers will conclude pool play later that day with a 7:30 PM CT matchup versus No. 4–ranked University of South Dakota.
The tournament format features four pools, with each pool champion and the next two highest-ranked teams across all pools advancing to the final round on Sunday, November 2, beginning at 10:45 AM CT. Final round seeding will be determined by pool points, goal differential, goals for, goals against, and total wins, with each game serving as a direct qualifier for the national tournament.
With a balanced roster and strong leadership across the field, Mines will aim to carry their momentum from the regular season into a competitive weekend in Omaha. The Orediggers' focus will be on maintaining composure in high-pressure matches and converting scoring opportunities against some of the region's best programs.
