The Shotgun/Throwdown: West Virginia women’s soccer set to compete in Big 12 Semifinals tonight

Welcome, By-Godders, to The Shotgun/Throwdown, WVU’s best place for sports links, information, sophomoric humor, and daily distractions.

A penalty kick goal late in the second half helped the West Virginia women’s soccer team knock off Oklahoma State in its opening match in the Big 12 Conference Tournament. Now the fourth-seeded Mountaineers are preparing to face the top-seeded Longhorns.

Texas is ranked #16 in the country and only has one loss this season. WVU faced Texas in Morgantown last month and got out to a 1-0 midway through the first half, but the Longhorns battled back to escape with a 2-1 win.
