Women’s Soccer Miss Opportunity to Clinch Title Share, Head to Big XII Tourney

With an opportunity to clinch a share of another regular-season title and the top seed in the women’s tournament, the #13 ranked Mountaineers fell short against Kansas.

Big XII Conference

After early season setbacks that saw losses to perennial powers Penn State and Georgetown, and tough draws to Arkansas, Purdue and Northwestern; it appeared that Mountaineers had righted the ship and were headed to a share of their sixth consecutive Big XII regular season title (and 17th overall conference title), having reeled off a 7-1 conference record, including an incredible 2-1 come-from-behind win versus then #13 Texas with their only conference loss came in a gritty OT bout with Baylor.

Kansas had other ideas in mind as the Jawhawks stunned the Mountaineers in OT in Morgantown, with a 1-0 win.

The Mountaineers will travel to Kansas City, Missouri for the 2018 Big XII for the 2018 Big 12 Soccer Championship. They will face off against 7-seed Oklahoma on October 28 at 6:30 ET at Swope Soccer Village.
