Washington State advances to the Elite Eight

Courtesy of WSU Athletics Communications and @WSUCougarSoccerFor the first time in school history, the Washington State soccer team is headed to the Elite Eight. Morgan Weaver scored twice, and Makamae Gomera-Stevens had the game-winner as WSU downed West Virginia 3-0.
