The App State women’s soccer team knows nothing comes easy in the Sun Belt. The sea of talented players, combined with the intense travel that comes with teams from around the country, makes it one of the toughest women’s soccer conferences in the country.

The Mountaineers prepare for this by scheduling a challenging group of non-conference opponents each year.

Despite sitting at 2-4-1, they have gained valuable experience that their record does not necessarily reflect. The Mountaineers have managed to pick up wins against UNC Asheville and Florida International, as they continue to search for their identity as a team.
