WSU Soccer Sets its Spring 2019 Schedule

The Cougars will play four times during the spring.

Based on info from WSU Sports Info

PULLMAN - Fresh off another run into the NCAA Tournament Washington State soccer is set to get back to work with the release of its spring schedule. The Cougars will play four times during the exhibition season including three times in Pullman.

The Cougars will play their first three games of the spring season at home with the first of the three taking place on March 3. The opening contest will feature the Cougars against the Crossfire Boys club team from the West Side. After Spring Break, the Cougars return to action of a pair of games as WSU hosts Idaho Mar. 23 while welcoming in University of British Columbia Mar. 31. The Cougs took on the Vandals in the 2018 regular season, shutting out Idaho, 3-0, in the Battle of the Palouse. To finish off the spring, WSU hits the road to take on Boise State April 13.

The spring season gives the Cougars a chance at a whole new look with the graduation of six seniors in the fall. In total the Cougars have 23 on the roster for the spring with four starters still recovering from injury. In addition to the returning players, WSU has a pair of new Cougars among their ranks in the spring with Liz Weis, from Carlisle, Pennsylvania, enrolling early while Madison Carter transferred in from the University of Portland.

With winter weather possibilities, the location of the Cougars' home contests are still to be determined.
