2018 Big East Conference women's soccer tournament


The 2018 Big East Conference women's soccer tournament was the postseason women's soccer tournament for the Big East Conference held from October 28 through November 4, 2018. The five-match tournament took place at campus sites, with the higher seed hosting each game. The six-team single-elimination tournament consisted of three rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. The defending champions were the Georgetown Hoyas. They were the top seed based on an 8–0–1 season in conference play. The Hoyas were able to defend their crown, beating Butler in the final. This marks the third year in a row Georgetown has won the tournament.[1][2][3]
