Although coach Paul Radcliffe’s program doesn’t get the shine that some of the bigger, more commercialized sports receive, what the Cardinal women’s soccer team accomplished in the 2010s was top-notch. They won three National titles while holding court—er, field—out west with Pac-12 titles in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019. During that stretch, the team only lost seven conference games.
