No. 11 Baylor soccer (20-5-0) makes its first-ever return trip into the Elite 8, facing No. 2 Georgetown (20-0-3) in the quarterfinal round of the NCAA Soccer Championship on Saturday, Nov. 24, at 11 a.m. CT/12 p.m. ET at Shaw Field in Washington, D.C.

Facing the No. 1 national seeded Hoyas, Baylor is a No. 2 national seed, the highest-ever bid earned by a BU squad after winning the 2018 Big 12 regular season title and maintaining an undefeated record at home.

BU cruised through the second and third rounds, hosted in Waco at Betty Lou Mays Soccer Field. The Bears took down No. 13 Vanderbilt and No. 12 Virginia.

The Hoyas are undefeated on the season, winning both the regular season and tournament Big East titles.
