The ACC women’s soccer tournament is always one of the toughest competitions of the season, and this year’s edition should be no exception.
The league boasts three of the top six teams in the national polls in No. 2 North Carolina, No. 4 Wake Forest and No. 6 Notre Dame, and all six teams in the tournament are ranked in the top 15 nationally. Defending tournament champion Stanford, 17th in the country, didn’t even make the ACC field this time around.
That means a new champion will be crowned for a second consecutive year after the Cardinal snapped Florida State’s five-year run of tournament titles in 2025. The fourth-seeded Seminoles will try to return to the top of the mountain, while top-seeded Notre Dame will like its chances to lift the trophy for the first time.
Who will prevail in Cary? Here’s all you need to know to watch all the action.
