# 2023 Big 12 Conference women's soccer tournament

The 2023 Big 12 Conference women's soccer tournament was the postseason women's soccer tournament for the Big 12 Conference held from October 28 to November 4, 2023. The 9-match tournament was scheduled to be held at the Round Rock Multipurpose Complex in Round Rock, Texas. However a large amount of rain caused the field to be unavailable for the Quarterfinals and Semifinals, leading those rounds to instead be moved to Mike A. Myers Stadium in Austin, Texas. The move in venue caused the Big 12 to have to refund all quarterfinal and semifinal round tickets. Admission was made free in Austin, so no attendance count was made, though fans coming still had to pay parking prices.
The 10-team single-elimination tournament consisted of four rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. The West Virginia Mountaineers were the defending champions in 2022.
Texas won the title by defeating newcomer BYU 3–1 in the final. This was the third title in school history for Texas, their first since winning back-to-back in 2006 & 2007, and the first for head coach Angela Kelly. As tournament champions, Texas earned the Big 12's automatic berth into the 2023 NCAA Division I Women's Soccer Tournament. It was Texas' final Big 12 Women's Soccer Championship as the team will move to the SEC in 2024.

## Seeding

The top ten teams in regular season play qualified for the tournament. One tiebreaker was used to determine the 9th and 10th seeds. Head-to-head between Oklahoma and Cincinnati was a tie at 0–0. However Cincinnati won the 9-seed with points earned against common opponents: 7–4.
