Where to watch NCAA women’s soccer today: Channel, time, schedule, live stream for college semifinal games | Sporting News
College soccer has arrived in Cary, North Carolina, as the NCAA women’s tournament semifinals are set to get underway at WakeMed Soccer Park.
Duke is the only No. 1 seed remaining as Mississippi State, USC and Florida State all got knocked off. Florida State’s departure was notable since the team lost to No. 8 Vanderbilt in the second round on penalty kicks. FSU was looking to win back-to-back NCAA titles and its third in four years.
Of the four teams remaining, only No. 3 Stanford has won the championship recently. The Cardinal were last year’s runner-up and won in both 2017 and 2019. They’ll face No. 2 Wake Forest in the first semifinal on Friday. Wake is the one team in the final four that hasn’t reached an NCAA championship in the past 10 years.
The second semifinal game features a fierce rivalry of No. 1 Duke and No. 2 North Carolina. UNC is a three-time runner-up (2018, 2019, 2022) in recent years, while Duke lost the final in 2015.
The Sporting News has all the details on where to watch the all-ACC NCAA women’s soccer semifinals.
