MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – The No. 6-ranked West Virginia University women’s soccer team sent more than 2,000 Mountaineer fans home happy tonight, as the squad opened its 2016 home season at Dick Dlesk Soccer Stadium with a 1-0 victory over No. 8 Clemson.
Tonight was the first-ever meeting between the Mountaineers (2-0-1) and the Tigers (2-1), and the victory gives WVU at least one win over a top-10 opponent in each of the last 12 seasons.
The crowd of 2,019, the fourth-best attendance mark in program history, also helped the Mountaineers extend their home unbeaten streak to 26.
