EAST Women's Soccer Championship, hosted by West Virginia University at
Dick Dlesk Soccer Stadium,have been set.

Two semifinal matches on Friday, Nov. 4, will kickoff at 3 p.m. and 5:30

by BIG EAST TV and will be available on numerous regional sports
networks including SNY in the metro New York area. Sunday's title match
also will be streamed live online for free at BIGEAST.TV.

Ten teams qualify for the BIG EAST Championship, which takes place on
campus sites during first round and quarterfinal play. The champion
receives the league's automatic bid to the NCAA tournament.

straight years, a feat only Connecticut and Rutgers have equaled. West
Virginia has advanced to the semifinal round in six consecutive seasons.

WVU previously played host to the 2007championship, a year in which the
Mountaineers won their first BIG EAST tournament title. Midfielder Lisa
DuCote converted the final penalty kick in West Virginia's 5-3 shootout
win over Notre Dame.
