The Mountaineers defeated TCU earlier this evening 3-0 in Fort Worth, TX. The win also marked the program’s 300th win, all of which have come under head coach Nikki Izzo-Brown. West Virginia then clinched the regular-season title after the Baylor Bears lost to the Iowa State Cyclones 1-0 overtime, and the Oklahoma Sooners drew 2-2 with the Kansas Jayhawks in overtime.
This is West Virginia’s fifth consecutive Big 12 Conference regular-season title, having won it every year since joining the conference.
