The 2018 BYU Cougars women's soccer team represents BYU during the 2018 NCAA Division I women's soccer season. The Cougars are coached for a 24th 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 18 of the 23 seasons that Rockwood has been the head coach. Joining Rockwood as assistant coaches are Brent Anderson (2nd season)[1] and Steve Magleby (1st season)[2] with volunteer assistants Rachel Jorgensen (5th season) and McKinzie Young 7th season). The Cougars came off of a season were they fourth in the WCC and went 7–8–4, 4–4–1 in the WCC. The Cougars were picked to finish third by the WCC media.[3] The Cougars stunned the conference and went 8–1 to win the WCC Championship and return to the NCAA Playoffs where they lost to TCU in the first round. The Cougars finished the season 13–5–1.
