PROVO, Utah – BYU women’s soccer is hosting an NCAA Tournament Elite Eight match on its home pitch.

No. 1-seed BYU will face No. 3-seed North Carolina from the ACC at South Field on Friday, November 24, 2023. The winner will advance to the NCAA Tournament’s College Cup in Cary, North Carolina.

This is a revenge spot for BYU as North Carolina ended the Cougars season last year in the NCAA Sweet 16 round. The Tar Heels went on to the College Cup and were the National Runner-Up a season ago.

North Carolina is the most accomplished women’s soccer program in the NCAA. The Tar Heels have won 21 titles in their history. BYU is seeking its first title and second overall College Cup appearance.

These two programs have only met twice, both coming in the NCAA Tournament—last year’s Sweet 16 matchup and in 2012 on South Field when BYU was also a No. 1 seed. The Tar Heels won that match 11 years ago.

BYU is looking for its first win all-time against North Carolina.

Here are all the details of how to watch BYU women’s soccer against North Carolina in the NCAA Tournament.
