UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. – A record-setting run in the 2015 NCAA Tournament came to an end tonight for the No. 4-ranked West Virginia University women’s soccer team, as the Mountaineers fell, 2-0, at No. 6 Penn State in an Elite Eight match at Jeffrey Field.
Two first-half goals were too much for the Mountaineers (19-3-1, 6-0-1) to overcome on the road, as PSU pushed its tournament four-game goal total to 17. The Nittany Lions (20-3-2, 8-2-1 Big Ten) advance to the NCAA College Cup and will face Rutgers in the semifinal on Dec. 4.
“Tons of credit goes out to Penn State tonight.
