Season At A Glance: ESU starts the season with three non-conference matchups, the first two on the road, with a trip to Molloy following the season-opener. The inaugural home contest is next up when Bloomfield pays a visit to Gregory-Douds Field at Eiler-Martin Stadium on Sept. 9.

The Warriors then jump into the spine of their season, with 12 conference games, including home and away matchups with the other six members of the PSAC’s East Division: Bloomsburg, Shepherd, Lock Haven, Shippensburg, Millersville, and West Chester. 

Sandwiched in between are two additional out-of-conference home games, with District of Columbia (Oct. 4) and St. Thomas Aquinas (Oct. 24) for a 17-game regular season slate.

PSAC East Preseason Poll: The Warriors were selected to finish fourth among East Division squads in the 2023 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Preseason Poll.
