2023 BYU Cougars women's soccer team

The 2023 BYU Cougars women's soccer team represents Brigham Young University during the 2023 NCAA Division I women's soccer season. The Cougars are coached for a 29th consecutive season by Jennifer Rockwood, who was co-coach in 1995 and became the solo head coach in 1996. Before 1995 BYU women's soccer competed as a club team and not as a member of the NCAA. Overall the Cougars have made the NCAA tournament in 23 of the 28 seasons that Rockwood has been the head coach. Joining Rockwood are newly promoted Associate Head Coach Brent Anderson (7th season) and as assistant coaches Steve Magleby (6th season) and Tasha Bell (1st season). Volunteer assistants Rachel Jorgensen (8th season) and Madie Gates (10th season) also return.

The Cougars enter 2023 under a banner of new beginnings. BYU competes as new members of the Big 12 Conference after joining the conference on July 1. The Cougars come off of a season where they finished second in the WCC and went 11–3–7, 6–0–3 in the WCC. The Cougars participated in the NCAA Tournament before falling to North Carolina in the Sweet 16. However the disappointing finish provides BYU with hope for the future as every starter from the 2022 season returns for their first Big 12 run.

The change in conference leads to a new scheduling format. Instead of playing conference matches on Thursday and Saturday, BYU will play conference matches on Thursday and Monday. Should their record prove to be adequate, BYU will then participate in a conference postseason tournament for the first time in 9 years (the WCC didn't have a postseason conference tournament). The Big 12 Women's Soccer postseason tournament will take place October 28- November 4 at the Round Rock Multipurpose Complex in Round Rock, TX.

Television & Internet Streaming
Most BYU women's soccer matches will have a TV broadcast or internet video stream available. ESPN+ will serve as the primary provider for most home and conference road matches. Some may be elevated to ESPN TV networks. Non-conference road games will be provided by the respective conferences television or streaming platforms. Information on these television and streaming broadcasts can be found under each individual match.
