BYU Women’s Soccer

BYU Women’s Soccer concluded its first year in the Big 12 with an overall 20-3-3 record, posting an undefeated season in the conference and on the home South Field while advancing to the NCAA College Cup for the second time in program history.

BYU opened the season by beating the then-No. 1 UCLA in Week 3 and becoming the No. 1 team for the first time ever. The Cougars’ offense continued to rise nationally, reaching the No. 1 spot in both shots per game with 20.96 and total goals with 79. The defense and goalkeepers racked up nine shutouts and a 0.761 save percentage.

The road to the College Cup was underscored by a historic 4-3 victory in the Elite Eight over the No. 3 North Carolina Tar Heels—scoring four unanswered second-half goals and earning the largest comeback in NCAA Championships history since 2003.

Cougars had five seniors picked up during the 2024 NWSL Draft: Brecken Mozingo (4th overall pick), Olivia Smith-Griffitts (20th), Olivia Wade-Katoa (23rd), Jamie Shepherd (30th) and Laveni Vaka (55th). The returning Utah Royals drafted Mozingo and Smith-Griffitts.
