This is the 11th consecutive and 17th overall appearance in the NCAA Tournament for the women’s soccer program. Boston College has been to eight Sweet 16’s, two Elite Eight’s and of course the 2010 College Cup.

Boston College is one of eight Atlantic Coast Conference teams that earned bids to the tournament. Virginia (20-1-0), North Carolina (17-4-0), Virginia Tech (16-4-2) and Florida State (18-1-3) are all No. 1 seeds in the tournament.
