The University of Toronto Varsity Blues travel just up Yonge Street to compete in the 2026 OUA Field Hockey Championship, hosted by York University from October 24-25.

This fall, U of T finished in second place at the conclusion of the regular season posting an 8-1-3 (W-L-T) record overall. With the championship featuring a Final Four format, the Blues will match up in a semifinal contest on Saturday (Oct. 24) with the Waterloo Warriors who posted a 6-3-3 record to finish in third.

A well-balanced team, the Blues finished third in the province in goals scored with 25 across the 12-game season. Toronto also proved to be one of the toughest defensive teams conceding the second fewest goals in the OUA with just six goals allowed.

Fourth-year midfielder and defender Maggie Mullins has continued to be a leader on the team, orchestrating the the Blues staunch defence while also spearheading the transition offence. Second-year goalkeeper Mary Yang has also been pivotal serving in net for all eight wins while contributing to nine clean sheets. Up front, U of T have used a scoring by committee tactic which has seen 14 different players notch a goal during the fall campaign.
 
The winner of the semifinal will advance to Sunday's gold-medal match versus the winner of York/Guelph at 1 p.m., while the losers will battle for bronze at 11 a.m.
 
The OUA champion will advance to the 2026 National Bank Field Hockey Canada U SPORTS Championship, presented by Farm Mutual Re, at the University of Waterlo from Novemeber 5-8.
