SAN JOSE, California (Via San Jose Earthquakes) – Avaya Stadium has been selected to host the Division I Women’s Soccer College Cup in 2019 and 2021, the NCAA announced today. The event will also be co-hosted by the West Coast Conference and the San Jose Sports Authority.

“The Earthquakes are proud that the NCAA has once again selected Avaya Stadium to host this great event,” said Earthquakes Chief Operating Officer Jared Shawlee. “We would like to thank the West Coast Conference and the San Jose Sports Authority for their hard work on the bid and for helping bring another great event to the City of San Jose.
