LYNCHBURG, Va. – The United Soccer Coaches awarded Liberty women's soccer the 2024-25 Team Pinnacle Award, receiving the honor for the third straight year, the organization announced recently.

Liberty is one of two NCAA Division I Women's Soccer programs, along with Montana, to receive the award for the 2024-25 academic year.
The Lady Flames earned a 15-2-4 record last season, finishing the regular season as Conference USA Co-Regular Season Champions. Liberty finished as runners-up in the 2024 CUSA Women's Soccer Championship.
