Soccer - Women's

The Radford Women's Soccer team, led by Head Coach Ben Sohrabi, has a rich tradition at Radford University. This past fall, the team won their 9th Big South Tournament Championship and returned to the NCAA Women's Soccer Tournament for the 10th time in program history.

Your donations allow us to offset expenses for gear, enhance our athletes' travel experiences - including transportation and accommodations - as well as update our facilities. 

High-performance gear is important to our program because it allows our athletes to represent Radford near and far while performing at the highest levels. Facilities enhancements, including locker room improvements, help us stay up-to-date and competitive. Optimized facilities can also be a powerful recruiting tool. Your gift today is a start in helping us address larger needs within our program.  Every gift, no matter the size, makes a difference.
