LYNCHBURG, Va. – In its second NCAA Women's soccer Championship appearance in three years, Liberty will travel to Clemson, S.C., to take on the No. 8 Tigers. The contest is set for Friday at 6 p.m. at Historic Riggs Field.

The Lady Flames will be competing in the NCAA tournament for the ninth time in program history. They will be seeking their first-ever triumph in the event.
Liberty is currently slotted at No. 45 in the RPI rankings and Clemson is No. 38.

Liberty secured its second Conference USA Championship title and automatic qualifying bid in three seasons, topping No. 8 seed Missouri State 3-0 in the title game. Liberty was both the CUSA Regular Season Co-Champions and the CUSA Tournament champions. CUSA Player of the Year Ivy Garner broke a CUSA Championship record with five goals in the event en route to being named the Championship Offensive MVP. CUSA Defensive Player of the Year, Lauren Littleton led a Liberty defense that allowed a single goal and fewer than ten shots across three games to be named the CUSA Championship Defensive MVP.
