Women’s soccer: Wisconsin hung tight with nation’s best in NCAA Tournament, Coach Paula Wilkins excited for next year

The No. 15 Wisconsin Badgers women’s soccer team fell 1–0 to then No. 1 ranked Stanford just before Thanksgiving. With that, their season was over. They made it to the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Tournament, which was one round further than last year, which is certainly something to be proud of.

They also improved their record from 14-6-2 to 14-4-4, which was only a slight improvement, but an improvement nonetheless.

Coach Paula Wilkins was very proud of how her team showed up toward the end of the season.

“We played some very good soccer at the end of the year,” Wilkins said.
