GREENSBORO, N.C. – Following the conclusion of Thursday’s matches, the bracket and seeds for the 2022 Atlantic Coast Conference Women’s Soccer Championship are set.

North Carolina and Florida State were declared regular-season co-champions, as both teams finished the regular season with identical 8-2 conference records. The Tar Heels earned the No. 1 seed by virtue of their win over the Seminoles on Oct. 20. Both teams will receive a bye into next Thursday’s semifinals.

Notre Dame earned the No. 3 seed with its 7-2-1 league record and will play host to sixth-seeded Pitt, which is making its first-ever appearance in the ACC Championship. The Panthers ended the season with a 5-3-2 conference mark and will take on the Fighting Irish at 6 p.m. on Sunday. Virginia and Duke closed the regular season with matching 6-2-2 league records, as the Cavaliers earned the No. 4 seed with their win over the Blue Devils on Oct. 2. Virginia will host Duke on Sunday at 8 p.m.

The winner of the Duke-Virginia matchup will battle No. 1 seed North Carolina in the semifinals at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 3, while the Notre Dame-Pitt winner will face second-seeded Florida State at 8 p.m. Thursday. The semifinals and final will be held at WakeMed Soccer Park in Cary, North Carolina, while first-round matches will be played on campus sites.

The first round and semifinals will air live on ACC Network and the final on Sunday, Nov. 6, will be broadcast at noon on ESPNU.
