The Loyola women’s soccer team will open its second consecutive NCAA tournament against Hofstra University Nov. 16 at 12 p.m. CT in Hempstead, New York. After beating Illinois State University 2-0 in the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) Tournament championship Nov. 10, the Ramblers received the conference’s automatic bid to the big dance.
